During a visit to San Diego for the U.S. Pacific Fleet-led Unmanned Integrated Battle Problem 21, Chief of Naval Research Rear Adm. Lorin Selby said America’s growing focus on autonomous capabilities is showing impressive results.

As conflicts become compressed in time and more complex, with an increasing number of data sources and platforms feeding information to warfighters, it is a challenge to build and share a complete and accurate operational picture.

The goal of the Office of Naval Research's Undersea Signal Processing program is to develop signal processing algorithms that improve the Navy's ability to detect, identify and locate submarines in shallow and deep ocean environments.

The Office of Naval Research's Metamaterials program supports basic research on optical and acoustic metamaterials to control light and sound propagation over a large frequency range.

The Office of Naval Research's Acoustic Transduction Materials and Devices program supports basic and applied research on materials and device technologies for Navy applications that generate, detect and suppress undersea signal for navigation, threat detection, weapons guidance, communication and the like.

Naval assets, large and small, spend months to years at sea exposed to considerable biofouling pressures. The Office of Naval Research's Biofouling Control and Coatings Program sponsors research to develop antifouling/fouling release coatings and the mechanics underlying such materials.

The Office of Naval Research's Computer-Aided Materials Design (CAMD) program funds research projects in materials design.

Dielectric Films for Capacitors is an Office of Naval Research program.

The Office of Naval Research's Functional Polymeric and Organic Materials program is focused on exploring the inherent strengths/properties of organic and polymeric materials to bring new capability to the Navy.
