Teledyne FLIR OEM, part of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, announced Dragoon is using the Prism Supervisor and Prism SKR software for its AI-driven object detection, tracking, real-time autonomy flight control, and mission planning capabilities within its long-range unmanned platform prototypes under Project Artemis, a Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) initiative.
Project Artemis is a program designed to evaluate and deploy long-range loitering munitions capable of operating in highly contested electromagnetic environments and in large numbers. Dragoon is one of four organizations within Project Artemis tasked to demonstrate low-cost, adaptable, long-range, unmanned aerial systems (UAS) platforms with the potential to maximize operational flexibility.
“The integration of Dragoon’s Cinder unmanned aircraft—our low-cost, long-range platform—and Teledyne FLIR’s OEM Prism software unlocks new, highly autonomous mission capabilities in complex environments,” said Jason Douglas, co-founder of Dragoon Technology. “By combining our platform and payload with Teledyne FLIR’s autonomy, we offer an ideal solution for the DIU Artemis project.”
