PDW has a proven track record of developing novel technology across a large stack in SUAS design. PDW's history balances R&D spend efficiency and quickness to market. Our roadmap leverages intimate understanding of DoD needs through conversations with long standing customers which will increase mission effectiveness.A core strength of our organization is a team of the best autonomy engineers emerging from leading academic institutions.Our engineering team is dedicated to building the world's first truly autonomous SUAS Software Development Platform. With an open architecture, PDW's Open ADK (autonomy platform) enables a rich suite of APIs supporting many native functions that are foundational to autonomy and autonomous behaviors. These tools will enable customers, businesses, and labs to develop their own advanced behaviors and algorithms with or without the knowledge and support of PDW. In a manner similar to the way physical payloads are changed to suit a particular mission, these behaviors and tools can be downloaded and enabled on individual vehicles in the form of "Soft Payloads," which allows our customer programs to openly compete development of improvements to autonomous capability vice be tied strictly to PDW. In other words, we are not the keeper of the best ideas alone and believe collectively our armed forces need a collaborative environment our Open ADK will facilitate.PDW is proud to support our military and government customers. We consider a privilege to work with some of America's best and brightest men and women in uniform.
