The U.S. has revealed new details about the Jackal missile, a turbojet-powered autonomous precision strike weapon being developed by Northrop Grumman for use in environments where traditional navigation and communication systems may be disrupted. The Jackal is designed to provide standoff strike capability with autonomy features such as GPS-denied navigation, autonomous waypointing, and onboard target recognition, allowing it to operate even when satellite signals or data links are degraded. The

Autonomous boat with independent decision-making, efficient control, and long-range navigation capabilities to improve bathymetric surveys. Researchers from the University of Texas, El Paso construct a fully autonomous vessel to carry out reliable and economical bathymetric surveys, which involves mapping the depth and terrain of water bodies. The researchers’ main objective being to provide a methodological framework for other researchers to build their own autonomous boat which will assist wit
