The Soldier-Vehicle Connection for a More Effective Fighting Force
The most dangerous part of a soldier’s day on the battlefield can be exiting the armored vehicle. Thales can help solve the problem with day and night 360 degree local awareness.
For today’s fighting forces, information superiority means battlefield superiority
Military superiority depends on information superiority and, particularly, on continuous imagery. Connected combat will mean vastly improved vision and battlefield awareness for tomorrow's soldiers. The keys are sophisticated sensors, seamless connectivity and effectors on and above the conflict zone, Artificial Intelligence for rapid target acquisition and immediate engagement decisions.

Putting the Artificial into Intelligent Air Traffic Management Training
Air traffic is exploding worldwide. Thales’s SimDebrief harnesses AI to bolster the efficiency of air traffic controllers training and to ensure that the increase in controller training demand can be managed . Read on
Thales, major partner for the new European research programme in cybersecurity
Led by the French CEA with the help of Thales, SPARTA is a novel Cybersecurity Competence Network, supported by Europe’s H2020 programme.
Why Keeping Your “Ears” Open Underwater Can Save Your Vessel
Risks are increasing for naval forces as traditional naval powers contest increasingly the open seas, unconventional forces take to the waters with dangerous new weapons, and technology can mask ship movements. Submarines need more sensitive ‘ears’ and ‘brains’ to cut through the clutter and protect both their missions and themselves. A must read, now.
AI: in the beginning was the algorithm
It takes an expert in cybersecurity and low-energy systems to develop an AI that will differentiate itself from much of the inefficient tech of today. Thales is developing new ways to minimise AI energy use, in the aircraft cockpit and beyond. Read on.
Artificial Intelligence: Man at the crossroads*
What is there to say about Artificial Intelligence that hasn't already been said? Is it some evil monster intent on devouring our hard-won freedoms? Or a magical trunk with the powers to deliver humankind from its lowly insufficiencies? In truth it's neither: AI in our lifetime will be anything and everything we decide to make it.
Will Artificial Intelligence Tell Us What’s on Its Mind?
Artificial Intelligence provides critical information to decision-makers when lives are at stake. But how do we make sure that it doesn't become smarter than we are?
Thales demonstrates the critical role of Artificial Intelligence in decisive moments
Thales invests 20% of its annual revenues in R&D. After the first Thales Media Day dedicated to cybersecurity, which is an essential component of digital transformation, Thales is now demonstrating specific examples of the impact of Artificial Intelligence in decisive moments. The event is being held in Montreal, Canada and simultaneously in France, the UK, Spain, Germany, the Netherlands and the Middle East.
Launch of first European Artificial Intelligence platform coordinated by Thales
The European Commission's AI4EU project (Artificial Intelligence for European Union) was officially launched today with a view to building the first European on-demand Artificial Intelligence (AI) platform and mobilising the entire European AI community. The project has a budget of 20 million euros. As project leader, Thales is coordinating platform roll-out and promoting collaboration within an active ecosystem extending far beyond the current membership of the project, which includes 79 organisations from 21 EU countries.
