Latent Ruggedized Toolkit
Off-grid AI for autonomous unmanned surface vessels with no-code updates
Designed for ops in GPS-denied waters, Latent RTK integrates ruggedized NVIDIA Jetson with ATAK for real-time control of USVs and AI model updates at sea. Naval operators label maritime threats, deploy adaptive models, and track vessels with one-click tools—via a no-code interface that sustains mission superiority without deep technical skills.
Latent Assisted Label
Accelerating dataset labeling with NVIDIA Omniverse
Overcome vast maritime surveillance datasets for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) with data annotation that cuts expert effort by 99%. Our generative AI pipeline, powered by NVIDIA Omniverse and CUDA / Tensor Cores, creates hyper realistic ocean and coastal training data to expedite annotation—fueling rapid model development for edge AI in dynamic Indo-Pacific scenarios.
Latent Agent
Automate your edge AI deployment
Slash deployment cycles for shipboard and unmanned systems with Latent Agent, our agentic MLOps platform. Natural language directives construct and tune end-to-end AI, facilitating quick customization across naval platforms—from destroyers to UAVs—for versatile, mission-ready autonomy.
Latent Assisted Label was recognized by the U.S. Army’s xTech program, securing fourth place in the xTech AI Grand Challenge competition.
Connect with our specialists for live demos and insights on embedding edge AI into naval warfighting. Let’s arm the fleet with AI that’s primed for any maritime mission, on any vessel.

Description:

This panel, guided by Latent AI’s vision of edge-first autonomy, charts a pragmatic path forward built on three imperatives:
Modular Design
Separating AI “brains” from low-cost “vehicles” to create flexible, updatable fleets, with short-range wireless links enabling rapid refresh.
Tiered Autonomy
Scaling from simple point-defense missions to advanced, coordinated long-range strikes, ensuring adaptability across threat environments.
Avoiding the “Knight Trap”
Designing autonomy that resists becoming brittle or over-specialized. Instead of a few “silver bullet” systems that fail outside their narrow mission, fleets must field resilient AI that adapts, re-learns, and redeploys at scale across varied maritime scenarios.
