ARL’S WEB


ARL is based in Adelphi, Maryland, with primary laboratory sites at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland; Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina; Orlando, Florida; and White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico, as well as dozens of other sites throughout the U.S. and in three other countries. Its efforts include collaborative research alliances (CRAs), collaborative technology alliances (CTAs) and other collaboration research entities, such as the Institute for Collaborative Biotechnologies (ICB) and the Institute for Creative Technologies (ICT).

capabilities as well as uncovering unique and effective ways to merge AI with Soldier knowledge and intelligence.


In particular, ARL’s efforts in human-agent teaming look at both how humans—Soldiers—interact with agents—robotic entities— and how those agents can be used to interact with humans. Part of that interaction involves developing an understanding of how humans communicate with robots and vice versa. Te ability to have robots interpret commands the same way that humans

interpret them is huge, but a game-changing technology would be having the robot anticipate what needs to happen next. Tis level of adaptive behavior will provide an overmatch capability in this battlefield space.


Te Army requires adaptive AI—AI that will learn with little or no supervision using small data sets collected organically, that will quickly and easily adapt to new tasks that will provide context
