Offerings
Counter-UAS
Mind Foundry Sentry supports early threat detection with an “acoustic tripwire” that detects, tracks, and classifies drones using their acoustic signatures. Sentry is designed for analysts who need precision and speed when tracking multiple threats in real time in ever-changing operational environments.
Signal Processing
Mind Foundry’s complex signal processing engine can handle various signal types, including sonar, radar and cyber. It combines trusted AI and Machine Learning with tried and tested signal processing techniques, to process, analyse and enrich feeds from the complete range of modern sensors.
Sensor Fusion
Mind Foundry's AI-enabled sensor fusion techniques enable data to be combined in novel and agile ways, creating combined outputs in a single pipeline. In so doing, the predictive capabilities of models are improved and reduce the cognitive burden on operators.
Benefits Mind Foundry Brings to Defence & National Security
UK Sovereign AI
Born out of the University of Oxford, our AI solutions are scientifically principled and explainable to provide you with the fundamental understanding of the system and how it makes decisions.
Human - AI Collaboration
You can leverage the Mind Foundry Platform by bringing in your data, domain expertise, and integration. There are elements of operation that can never be replaced by AI. Our systems support operators as far as possible while preserving human autonomy.
Solutions, fit for purpose
One-size-fits-all solutions do not work in complex, challenging environments. Our approaches can be configured to match use cases while preserving robustness, performance and deployability.
Models that get better
Defence is an industry that is constantly changing. Powered by Continuous Metalearning, our solutions have the agency to combine your expert feedback with the models suggestions to adapt and improve in an ever-changing world.
