Description
This keynote explores how Agentic AI can redefine autonomy in aerial systems by enabling machines to reason, plan, and act with structured intent. Within this framework, the SIRB-AI Officer operates as the cognitive layer of the SIRB ecosystem, translating high-level mission objectives into coordinated, verifiable behaviors across diverse aerial platforms.
Built on a fusion of knowledge-driven reasoning, adaptive learning, and explainable control logic, the proposed framework supports autonomous decision-making under uncertainty while maintaining human interpretability and operational safety.
The talk will highlight how this architecture advances mission-level autonomy, moving beyond perception and navigation toward intent-aware coordination and system-wide validation. Through use cases spanning ISR, search-and-rescue, and contested-airspace operations, it illustrates how Agentic AI can evolve from a conceptual paradigm into a deployable capability for real-world aerial missions.
