For two decades, the Michigan Tech Research Institute (MTRI) has driven critical technological breakthroughs for sponsors including AFRL, ARL, DARPA, EPA, NASA, NSF, ONR, and others. To mark this 20-year milestone, we invite you to an exclusive anniversary event designed to foster strategic collaboration and showcase our cutting-edge research.
Through live demonstrations and technical presentations, our researchers will highlight groundbreaking advancements across five core competencies:
- Sensing of the Human Environment: RF, EO/IR and hyperspectral signal processing and AI solutions to exploit all-domain information
- Water Sciences: Physics-based remote sensing algorithms for precision water quality monitoring
- AI & Autonomous Systems: Mathematically grounded ML to extract knowledge from complex data
- Sensing of the Natural Environment: Remote sensing applied to wildfire behavior and wildlife conservation
- Transportation Infrastructure: Asset management tools and next-generation ground vehicle mobility
This event offers a distinct opportunity to engage with our principal investigators, explore cross-domain synergies, and align MTRI’s growing breadth and depth of technical staff with emerging national security priorities and opportunities.
