Artificial Intelligence is an essential technology today in many domains and it is important to continue studying it to identify new opportunities that can be applied to our products and services.
This area of research will support Leonardo’s innovation process and the adoption of cutting-edge digital technologies which use High Performance Computing.
The research domain of Big Data will work in harmony with efforts in High Performance Computing/Cloud research to study and investigate new methods to extract and visualise information.
Research in this area will focus on two programmes to consolidate Leonardo’s position in advanced electronics and sensing, and to generate new proprietary technologies. Work will also investigate the potential of quantum computing.
This research area will be dedicated to the study of Autonomous Intelligent Systems including a broad range of products and technologies such as drones, robots, autonomous vehicles, actuation through the Internet of Things, and tele-operated devices, as well as devices using Artificial Intelligence.
This research area will study the electrification of propulsion in aircraft and helicopters to meet the decarbonisation requirements of the new European Green Deal.
This research area will be devoted to the study of emerging materials technologies to assess how they could be applied to future products, especially in the avionics field.
This research area will study the use of 'Digital Twins', digital copies of the physical system and its components, for design purposes and to increase safety and operational flexibility.
