Israeli companies Maris-Tech and Iron Brain will work together to enable artificial intelligence (AI) on small and unmanned military platforms that previously couldn’t run AI workloads.

Maris‑Tech will supply compact edge computers capable of processing high-quality video and multi-sensor data with low latency and minimal power, all directly on the platform.

Iron Brain, meanwhile, will provide self-learning AI that adapts to new situations without relying on large, pre-collected datasets.

Together, the companies aim to run AI on board rather than depend on remote or cloud processing, allowing real-time multi-sensor analysis at the point of operations.

Bringing AI to the Edge

Iron Brain CEO Moshe Kravitz said the company’s self-learning AI is “designed to deliver real-time battlefield intelligence on platforms with limited computing resources.”

“By integrating with Maris-Tech’s edge solutions, we will be able to bring advanced multi-sensor AI capabilities to unmanned systems and other mission-critical defense applications,” he explained.

Maris-Tech CEO Israel Bar added that the collaboration “has the potential to open new opportunities for advanced video and AI defense solutions at the edge,” boosting situational awareness and autonomous decision-making in the field.
