Our solution

With Thales, we are exploring how quantum algorithms and software can be deployed in air defence systems from detection, radar tracking, to deployment of assets.

Our approach gives defense agencies and prime contractors a quantum-powered toolkit that enables them to make high-confidence decisions under uncertainty, coordinate complex multi-agent operations, and manage massive-scale data association — all faster than classical approaches allow.

Our algorithms run on high-performance computers emulating quantum systems, so defense partners can benefit from quantum mathematics now — with the same algorithms ready to use as quantum hardware matures.

Precision under uncertainty

Defense scenarios such as radar tracking require inferring target evolution from noisy, incomplete observations. Our quantum algorithms extract high-precision target estimates in short computation windows, giving operators actionable insight when milliseconds matter.

Scalable data association

Modern sensing generates vast volumes of data that must be correctly associated to their sources, producing an exponentially growing number of possible association tracks. Our solution exploits the inherent parallelism of quantum computing to handle this combinatorial growth efficiently, where classical methods fall behind.

Coordinated multi-agent control

Missions like drone swarm operations require coordinating many agents simultaneously. We use quantum computing to design complex path-planning strategies at scale, enabling coherent, real-time coordination across large fleets.
