Core competencies
•Electronic Warfare Systems (electronic support measures, Antennas , Direction Finders, receivers,
intelligence COMINT)
•Target Acquisistion and Pointing Systems (VIDEO SURVEILLANCE, Electro Optics Day & Night Observation
and Surveillance system, pointing for precise TARGETING)
•Artificial Intelligence for change detection and Automatic Target Recognition (EO/IR + advanced
processing of SAR signals)
•CyBer Warfare: new more reliable and efficient detection techniques to guarantee the safety of SW
systems in order to counter the latest generation of malware using sophisticated techniques such as
encryption, polymorphism and obfuscation.
• use of data mining and AI to recognize anomalous vehicle / aircraft / vessel behaviors (including use of
rhumb / orthodromic cartography and prediction and behavior verification tools to identify any
change of destinations, significant detours, etc.)
•Development of UAV systems in consideration of their vulnerability to interception and engagement
(E/O-IR- EMC vulnerability: Miniaturization of avionics, Shielding all RF or Serial communications,
Encrypting,
Redundancy with different frequencies, Emergency recovery systems, Directional communication,
Automatic data link loss emergency logic, Automatic GPS loss emergency logic, emergency logic against
Jamming.)
•TELE COOPERATIVE NEUROSURGERY: System of tele-surgery and post-operative and rehabilitative tele-
assistance: Communication system between the highly specialized center of excellence (HUB) and the
surgical team with less specialty and located in the suburbs or in the disadvantaged area (SPOKE), for
remote assistance and to allow for timely evaluation of the patient and neurosurgical interventions.
Developed for military applications for mass accidents such as damage control surgery and guidelines for
pre-hospital life support and triage.
