01 / Customer Challenge

The challenge our customer brought us.

Traditionally maritime sensor nodes are deployed haphazardly, with manual planning tools that are error prone and slow.

02 / Knexus Approach

What we designed and delivered.

Develop a planning tool for sensor deployment using machine learning.

Develop Minefield Planning Evaluation and Gaming Suite (MPEGS) to continuously update performance models and tactical knowledge to better deploy sensors in dynamic environments such as the seabed.
Develop MPEGS to utilize machine learning to best determine where sensors should be deployed using ship information, global information, and sensor characteristics.
03 / Mission Impact

The difference it made.

The Navy can use fewer sensors due to optimized deployment from MPEGS, decreasing the cost and time dedicated to deployment.
MPEGS allows the Navy to increase operator efficiency without an increase in manpower, due to a decrease in deployment strains from utilizing machine learning.
MPEGS allows sensor fields to be deployed more effectively providing increased situational awareness on mission areas such as ship traffic and the seabed environment.
