SBIR-STTR Award

URSA, an industry leader in UAV forensics and autonomous systems telemetry analysis, will leverage their existing intellectual property and expertise to create a prototype CUAS evaluation platform. This workstream will produce three critical components: a flexible target UAV platform; a instrumentation payload for detecting, recording, and transmitting external effects and onboard telemetry; and a telemetry management and analysis system.The resulting system will enable appropriately trained and equipped military, law enforcement, and civilian organizations to conduct repeatable, verifiable, and well documented CUAS testing in any environment.The work effort will significantly extend URSAs current telemetry analysis capabilities in two ways:URSA currently performs retrospective analysis. This project will develop real time analysis capabilitiesURSA currently presents a single telemetry stream for analysis. This project will develop multi-thread analysis, enabling investigators to compare multiple heterogenous telemetry and time series streams to each other.CUAS,Counter UAS,UAV telemetry,target drone

We will integrate our existing commercially viable UAV forensics capabilities into and adjacent to Medusa to enable the USAF to better collect and analyze CUAS test and operational data throughout the kill chain - acknowledge, detect, identify, locate, track, disable as well as investigate and integrate. This effort will also enhance Medusa C2 and provide an end-to-end use case for Medusa and beyond in areas where Medusa does not provide the required capabilities. Due to our existing UAV forensics capabilities and startup roots, we are able to rapidly innovate and deliver this capability very quickly to researchers, developers, and warfighters.
