Army CTO Alex Miller on bringing emerging tech to operational units

Dr. Alex Miller, Chief Technology Officer for the U.S. Army, discussed the Army’s initiative to integrate emerging technologies into combat formations through the “Transforming in Contact” program. This involves testing advanced communications, drones and counter-UAS systems in real-world scenarios to gather feedback on their effectiveness. Miller emphasized the importance of providing commanders with the right data at the right time to aid decision-making, rather than overwhelming them with excessive information.
