Our Work

Applied AGI is focussed on the development and operational deployment of advanced Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies in defence and related sectors such as space, policing, and security.

advanced Machine Learning solutions

BEACONN®, Applied AGI’s flagship ML engine, delivers unmatched real-world performance exploiting our unique proprietary technologies.

Second generation SENSORIUM®, an engineering grade spiking neural network (SNN), delivers even greater performance, low shot learning with applications in low SWaP austere environments.

Our capabilities are proven in challenging real-world settings, consistently delivering enhanced performance, improved reliability, and assured outcomes.

THE SOLUTION YOU NEED

Dual use technologies serving military and civilian applications

We work with organisations that have recognised the importance of AI in enhancing the way they do business, creating real, measurable change.

AAGI’s powerful NOVATOR® suite delivers a full range of MLOps capabilities that encompass automated data labelling and synthetics creation. It is designed to operate across a wide range of sensor data types providing benchmarked and assured solutions.

Integrating AI with sensor suites, AAGI provides the solution you need across the electromagnetic spectrum (EO/ IR and SAR, RADAR, RF) and in acoustic, seismographic and with other data types.

Our multi-source corroboration and data fusion capabilities underpin next-generation Counter-UAS (C-UAS) and other mission-critical systems – enhancing situational awareness, decision support, and operational dominance.

MACHINE VISION

While image classification, detection, and localisation are now mature Machine Learning (ML) capabilities, conventional systems often demonstrate brittleness and unpredictable failure modes in operational contexts.

This so-called “artificial stupidity” – where AI systems make errors no competent human operator would – remains a critical limitation to trust and adoption.

Current ML systems have failings in reliability and are all too easily fooled. They can exhibit degraded reliability when lighting or weather conditions change, and do not cope well when targets are partially obscured or camouflaged. Such vulnerabilities undermine confidence in automated perception, highlighting the need for assured, explainable, and resilient machine vision solutions that perform reliably in real-world defence and security use cases.

APPLIED AGI – SMARTER MACHINE VISION

Applied AGI’s technology revolutionises real-time and offline performance

Our systems are proven, robust, and accurate. They preserve information that has been shown in studies of brain mechanisms to be critical to real world interpretation.

Leveraging Applied AGI’s world-leading expertise in vision, auditory processing, and navigation, our technologies deliver significant, quantifiable performance advantages over conventional AI systems.

BEACONN® and SENSORIUM® deliver groundbreaking accuracy and robustness, excelling in complex, cluttered environments and within contested electromagnetic and communications domains.

Solving this in software delivers substantial, measurable gains in both performance and explainability—a critical requirement for trusted, assured AI deployment in defence applications.

DATA AGNOSTIC IN AUSTERE OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENTS

BEACONN® and SENSORIUM® are data-agnostic Machine Learning engines capable of interpreting data from a variety of sensors:

Electro-optical (EO) and infrared (IR), thermal, hyperspectral and event-based imagery and video;
RADAR, Synthetic Aperture RADAR (SAR), Inverse SAR (iSAR), Ground-Penetrating Radar (GPR);
Audio, SONAR, and seismographic sensors;
Radio frequency (RF) and electronic warfare (EW) signals and cybersecurity data.

AAGI capabilities are designed to operate at the tactical edge, within austere and resource-constrained environments where Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) limitations are critical constraints.

The AAGI ML suite delivers real value at operational speed, enabling enhanced decision-making, situational awareness, and autonomous tasking – including navigation and dynamic mission management.
