Event | Emerging Disruptive Technology Assessment Symposium | Remote Undersea Surveillance (RUS)
The Emerging Disruptive Technology Assessment Symposium (EDTAS) series helps future-proof Australian Defence as part of the Next Generation Technologies Fund (NGTF).
It considers an expansive science and technology topic that will likely have a major impact — transformational or disruptive — for the Defence or National Security domains in the 10+ year timeframe.
The theme for the 2021 symposium was Remote Undersea Surveillance (RUS).
Due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, this symposium was held as a virtual activity.
The following themes were explored:
- Environmental Observation
- Communications
- Sensor Networks
- Position, Navigation and Timing (PNT)
- Logistics
The EDTAS series helps the Next Generation Technology Fund (NGTF) and strategic planners understand the impact of emerging transformational or potentially disruptive technologies for Defence and National Security, in the 10 to 20+ year timeframe.
Remote Undersea Surveillance is one of DSTGs Science, Technology and Research (STaR) Shots, which will be delivered under the More, together Defence Science and Technology Strategy.
STaR Shots are challenging, inspirational and aspirational S&T missions that align strategic research to force structure priorities, and as this symposium’s topic, a great opportunity to delve into the Remote Undersea Environment with respected academic and industry minds.
This EDTAS was brought to you by Defence Science and Technology Group and Noetic Group.
