Shield AI Employee Perspectives
Shield AI completed its acquisition of Aechelon Technology, bringing high-fidelity visual simulation, physics-based sensor modeling and synthetic-environment technology into the company. By integrating Aechelon’s simulation capabilities with Hivemind, Shield AI’s autonomy software for aircraft and other systems, teams can test human and autonomous actions in realistic virtual environments, feed results back into development and deliver more capable human-machine teaming faster.
“The future of warfare will be defined by humans and autonomous systems operating and fighting together as a networked team.”
— Gary Steele, CEO of Shield AI
