WASHINGTON. Military Embedded Systems is pleased to announce the winners of its Best In Show awards at this week's Association of the United States Army (AUSA) annual conference.

Multifunctionality at the component level is enabling multispectral, multifunction-type sensors, Jake Braegelmann, Vice President of Business Development at New Wave Design, told me in a recent McHale Report podcast. We discussed how artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms are impacting designs and discussed the proper definition of AI at the edge. Braegelmann’s definition: The edge is where the sensor collects the data and AI can enable the filtering of that data in real time to get actionable intelligence to decision-makers. We also covered the U.S. Department of Defense’s (DoD’s) modular open system approach (MOSA) mandate, being aligned to the Sensor Open Systems Architecture, or SOSA, Technical Standard, and more. Edited excerpts follow.

One of the reasons I chose a career in aerospace and defense media is my love of space technology. Our June issue is annually one where we run much of our space content, from radiation-hardened electronics trends to satellite technology – with even more coverage of artificial intelligence (AI).

ATLANTA. Leveraging Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) strategies is the theme for the MOSA conference track at Aerospace Tech Week Americas being held November 8-9, 2022 at the JW Marriott Buckhead in Atlanta. Speakers such as C. Patrick Collier, co-founder of the SOSA Consortium, Jeff Howington of Collins Aerospace, and David Michelson, program manager for the Defense Innovation Unit’s (DIU’s) BlueUAS program highlight the MOSA agenda.
