MDSI (EU & US) announced today collaboration partnerships with Integrity ISR, LSAS Tec, and NAL Research to pursue concept exploration and advanced development in multi-domain situational awareness. The partnership is initially focused on expanding Quantum Eye, MDSI EU’s multi-domain situational awareness platform, which is now providing critical ISR services for Greenland.
The new high-performance team consisting of MDSI, Integrity ISR, LSAS Tec, and NAL Research will bring a best of industry approach to enhancing Quantum Eye’s operational capability through the addition of a Digitally-Integrated-Operations Development Environment (DIODE) and a DIODE LAB. These new systems engineering core will enable participants to explore options for multi-domain awareness using the latest in modeling, simulation, analysis, and experimentation combined with rapid prototyping.
DIODE and DIODE LAB will blend the four critical elements of multi-domain awareness: teambuilding, mission calculus, digital mission engineering, and prototyping. Quantum Eye’s expert staff will assist participants in applying state-of-the-art modeling and simulation tools to develop prototypes and experiments. The prototypes and experiments will then be evaluated at Quantum Eye or the participants home location using DIODE LAB deployable mission centers.
“We are delighted to take our systems integrator experience from the IRSA Development Group (IDG) and ArcticX into this this exciting new venture,” said Christian Steinø, Chief Executive Officer of MDSI. “In addition, collaborating with our new partners will enable the Quantum Eye clients to rapidly explore many alternatives to meet their multi-domain awareness needs with significantly less cost and risk.”
“The opportunity to provide authoritative data and training in a fully integrated environment is at the core of Integrity ISR capabilities,” said Danielle Storan, Chief Executive Officer of Integrity ISR. “We are confident that Quantum Eye will be the commercial benchmark for multi-domain awareness, particularly in the Arctic, North Atlantic & Pacific, and Baltic Sea regions.”
“Connecting multiple users through resilient communications and navigation in contested environments is the focus of NAL Research,” said Robert Bills, Chief Executive Officer of NAL Research. “Our contribution to Quantum Eye will be connectivity through the Iridium network, and other spacebased, aerial, and terrestrial systems, using an affordable and accessible commercial architecture and proven edge systems.”
LSAS Tec, Chief Executive Officer, Matthew Halferty, shared that “LSAS Tec has been instrumental in establishing capabilities like Quantum Eye in other locations with positive operational results. We look forward to supporting the entire team with proven architectures, advanced tools, and a network of providers that are truly world class.”
