Palladyne AI demonstrated an artificial intelligence-powered drone swarm during the US Army’s Ivy Mass exercise, showing how a single operator can oversee multiple autonomous aircraft while connected to the service’s Next-Generation Command and Control (NGC2) network.
The drill paired the company’s SwarmOS autonomy software with a mixed fleet of intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance drones and the Gremlin-X reusable mini-bomber, enabling them to coordinate and execute tasks autonomously in communications-contested environments without cloud connectivity.
The connection to NGC2 allowed live target tracks to be shared across the command network while AI handled much of the coordination.
