Needs-driven defense innovation in the Transparent Battlefield

Planned for JUN 2025

On a future battlefield, everything will be visible everywhere. Regardless of the operational environment, both individual soldiers and equipment systems will be able to be monitored in real time at a distance far from the operation. This is partly as a consequence of developed commercial technology that is increasingly adapted for military application. This call for proposals aims to solve challenges for the transparent battlefield and is part of the Civil-Military Innovation Program, which is a joint effort from Vinnova and the Swedish Armed Forces.
