Autonomous Systems Test Capability (ASTC)

PM CT2

Mission

Safely test autonomous ground vehicles providing capabilities to include lab-based simulations, hardware in the loop, and live testing with safety monitoring.

Description

An Autonomous Systems Test Capability (ASTC) will provide a three-phased approach to safely test autonomous ground vehicles: lab-based simulations, hardware in the loop, and live testing with safety monitoring. The result is the fielding of autonomous systems which have been characterized with a high degree of trust and will operate as intended on the battlefield.
