In Search of New Technologies for Special Operations
The U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM) – office of Science and Technology strives to deliver game-changing technology to enable US warfighters to have an asymmetric advantage in any environment.
The agency has reached out to industry and academia for suggestions on how to deliver wearable, omni-directional antenna technology, intelligence tools that can see through walls to discover hidden spaces, and portable translation devices, to name but a few of the many projects that have emerged in recent years.
With $100 million a year and 30 people on the team, SOCOM Science and Technology is well-positioned to assess troops’ needs and set in motion the research needed to deliver point solutions.
