Thales outlined results from nearly 10 years of R&D to embed frugal deep-learning AI in airborne combat optronics for real-time target detection.
A new TALIOS targeting pod module, ATD/R, is in live flight tests; operational service is planned from 2027.
Development focuses on running AI within aircraft power and heat limits using model compression, FPGAs, custom compute boards, mixed-expert architectures.
R&D also targets data scarcity, aiming to let armed forces use their own imagery to continuously improve recognition performance.
Work is underway on a next-generation T&R pod combining TALIOS and Reco-NG capabilities, adding frugal, hybrid, physics-informed AI functions.
