THALES: EUROPEAN PROJECT TO INCREASE COMBAT PERCEPTION CAPABILITIES
The European Commission signed the Grant Agreement for the launch of the STORE collaborative research project, coordinated by Thales and funded by the EDF.

To address a complex and constantly changing threat environment, the European Defence Fund is supporting the European Union's STORE (Shared daTabase for Optronics image Recognition and Evaluation) collaborative project to accelerate the introduction of AI and associated shared database in the imaging systems for land forces.
As threats become increasingly sophisticated (hypersonic missiles, combat drones, drone swarms, etc), optronic sensors are more strategically important than ever and need to deliver the highest levels of performance in the field.
STORE will lay the foundations for Europe's first shared, scalable database of defence imagery and explore different algorithm solutions for threats detection. In particular, it will address issues of data governance and the cost-effective development of sovereign technologies.The STORE project, by combining optronic sensors with AI-based analysis techniques, will set-up future functionalities related to augment war fighters’ perception of the battlefield, enhancing their tactical situational awareness, shortening the decision loop to accelerate reaction times and, consequently, improve survivability.
As STORE project leader, Thales will draw on its experience on the SCORPION programme and leverage its operational knowledge, technical expertise and experience in managing large-scale collaborative projects to coordinate the work and drive synergies between industry players and academic partners.
