To further advance Organic Resupply Busses (ORBs), the Air Force has released an STTR Open Topic. This proposal addresses the AFWERX Agility Prime subtopic Command and Control of Air Vehicles. The solution we propose will use a novel radar and optics sensor with the incorporation of sensor fusion. GhostWave, in collaboration with Ohio State University will conduct a feasibility study to examine the product/market fit for an ORB/AAM Command and Control System to support Humanitarian Aid and First Responders. The RF Noise Radar patents from GhostWave cover the technology that makes the sensors immune from jamming, immune from intercept, and have a low probability of detection. This, when fused with a long range camera, can be the input solution to the Command and Control System. The Virtual Control Tower optimizes the best of both sensors to provide a coverage in Degraded Visual Environments. GhostWave will utilize the customer/product fit processes of the iCorp program. During the 6 months of the Phase I, we will interview Air Force, other DoD and non DoD users and customers about their requirements. Additionally, we will identify the best sensors for the requirements and perform high level sensor fusion to verify the technical feasibility.
