BlueHalo and Kraken team up to integrate AI/ML systems into littoral security platforms

BlueHalo and Kraken Technology Group have formed a strategic partnership to integrate BlueHalo’s artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML)-backed autonomous mission systems into Kraken’s littoral security platforms to develop uncrewed surface vehicles (USV) and uncrewed surface/sub-surface vehicles (USSV) along with multi-domain, ‘marsupial’ capabilities.

Through this partnership, the entities will work together to integrate BlueHalo’s autonomous technology within a range of Kraken vessels including the K3 SCOUT USV, the K4 MANTA USSV and the K5 KRAKEN Gunship. BlueHalo will also integrate its Titan and SkyView Radio Frequency-based counter-uncrewed aircraft system technologies as payload within the K3, K4, and K5 portfolio for mobile, maritime UAS detect and defeat capabilities.

The BlueHalo AI/ML-backed autonomous platform will serve as the primary core of autonomous operations and functions within the Kraken USV and USSV to maintain situational awareness, signal directions to the autonomous maritime controller, enable multi-vessel swarming, and support hybrid maritime and land “marsupial” operations.
