Raytheon gets $20 million to teach military cameras to identify targets automatically

The US military is buying more automated target recognition technology. This means cameras on military platforms will get better at identifying objects without human help.

The military wants to speed up how quickly it can find and identify targets. This contract helps build the software that lets cameras do that work automatically, reducing the need for human operators to sift through hours of video. This kind of automation is a key part of how modern militaries are trying to make their operations faster and more efficient.
