NRL to Demonstrate Cross-Domain Technology at Sea-Air-Space 2024

The U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) is set to showcase cutting-edge defense technologies at the upcoming Sea-Air-Space Conference and Exposition in National Harbor, Md. NRL Senior Scientist for Robotics and Autonomous Systems, Dr. Glen Henshaw, will be speaking on the “Future of the AI Battlespace” panel, discussing the impact of artificial intelligence on military strategies.

NRL Commanding Officer, Capt. Jesse Black, highlighted the crucial role NRL researchers play in providing the Department of Defense with advanced capabilities to navigate the evolving warfighting landscape. From hypersonic technologies to unmanned vehicles and quantum information science, NRL is at the forefront of innovation.

Visitors to booth 301 can learn more about NRL’s research programs and technologies, including Scientific Development Squadron ONE (VXS), Inertial Navigation Interferometer, Close-in Covert Autonomous Disposable Aircraft (CICADA), and more. These technologies range from airborne scientific experimentation to underwater gliders and hybrid UAVs with multi-day endurance.

Additionally, NRL is developing state-of-the-art microwave technology, DNA sequencing capabilities, and melanized microbes for space applications. The organization’s expertise extends to sonar systems, orbit estimation software, satellite Command and Control, and hypersonics waveriders.

Sea-Air-Space, powered by the Navy League of the United States, is a premier maritime exposition bringing together defense industry leaders and military decision-makers. NRL’s participation underscores its commitment to driving innovative advances for the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps across various domains.
