Hivemind
Hivemind is Shield AI's autonomy stack, the software that flies the aircraft. It has been flying since 2018, across more than 30 platforms including an F-16, and it works in the GPS- and comms-denied conditions where remote-controlled drones fail. It is under a U.S. Air Force production contract for Collaborative Combat Aircraft, and it runs on partner platforms beyond our own. The work is modern C++ autonomy: planning, perception, state estimation, and the ground systems and integration that put it on real aircraft.
