The integration is expected to extend the VANTA platform\u2019s ability to autonomously avoid obstacles, navigate in areas where GNSS signals are unavailable, interpret data provided by onboard sensors and estimate the distance to detected objects.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSTARK knows how to build and quickly bring to market defence systems with a high degree of complexity. There are technological areas where the capabilities we have developed through Nemesis AI can complement and improve these systems. We see this partnership as a long-term collaboration, which can lead OVES Enterprise technology to several categories of autonomous systems and, over time, to the development of joint products,\u201d said Mihai Filip, CEO of OVES Enterprise.<\/p>\n<p>The German group\u2019s portfolio includes VIRTUS, a loitering munitions system under contract with the Bundeswehr and other European states; VANTA, which recently became the first unmanned naval system introduced into the Cyberspace and Information Service of the German Armed Forces; and MINERVA, an artificial intelligence-based command-and-control software designed to coordinate swarms of autonomous systems.<\/p>\n<p><em>iulian@romania-insider.com<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>(Photo source: Mihai Filip on LinkedIn)<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OVES Enterprise, a technology company based in the Romanian city of Cluj-Napoca specialising in autonomous systems and artificial intelligence-based applications, has signed a strategic partnership with German military technology manufacturer STARK.
