MCM Data Fusion Techniques for Multiple Unmanned Sensors & Systems: ONR is interested in innovative and functional technologies to augment the command decision process via fusion of information specifically as a means to accelerate mine countermeasure mission (MCM) timelines. This includes historical and current data from air, surface, and underwater tactical sensors (sonar, electro-optic, magnetic, etc.); environmental sensors and databases; tactical and doctrinal information; target specific models / knowledge; etc. There are four general areas of interest: planning (for collection of fusible information), fusion of information, display of fused information, and co-registration of contact-level data. The relevant assets are assumed to be a heterogeneous collection of fielded and developmental manned and unmanned systems.
