Explore Our Research ↗Complex challenges.
Connected research.
Our research interests connect the ability to perceive, decide, and act. These focus areas guide the questions we aim to investigate; they do not represent commercially available products or validated capabilities.
From information
to decisions.
Exploring navigation, planning, and decision-making for systems operating in complex and changing environments.
Intelligence meets
the physical world.
Investigating the relationship between robotic platforms, control, and interaction with real-world conditions.
Make the world
more legible.
Exploring perception, measurement, and sensor fusion as ways to turn observations into useful system understanding.
Bring the pieces
together.
Exploring how hardware, software, and data can connect into coherent systems designed for evaluation and iteration.
Exploring infrastructure for autonomous field operations.
Trace is investigating an early-stage concept for autonomous drone infrastructure: systems that could support docking, power and battery logistics, mission handoff, data exchange, and safe, repeatable field operations.
This work is exploratory. It is not a commercially available product, and performance, architecture, partnerships, and deployment requirements remain under evaluation.
Research with intent.
Engineering with
the real world in mind.
We aim to reduce the demands of repetitive field work and improve operational efficiency through practical, integrated technology.
Our approach starts with clear requirements, investigates feasibility, and evaluates concepts against measurable criteria.
Good research starts
with a conversation.
We welcome researchers, institutions, government program teams, technology organizations, and prospective investors interested in early-stage R&D. Let’s discuss a research question, potential collaboration, or funding fit.
