The Office of Naval Research is looking at birds’ perceptual and maneuvering abilities as inspiration for small unmanned aerial vehicle autonomy, trying to understand why birds make particular flight path choices and how they can do so quickly at higher speeds than would be safe for current engineered air systems in these environments.

The Office of Naval Research led the Navy's subcomponent agencies in the 2011 Best Places to Work in the Federal Government rankings.

The the Office of Naval Research’s (ONR) Expeditionary Canine Sciences program is taking a fresh look at how dogs are trained to identify different explosive devices.

ONR-sponsored researchers found a new way to precisely measure the vortices created by birds’ wings during flight, shedding greater light on how these creatures produce enough lift to fly.

A product of ONR's TechSolutions program, Solid State Lighting is one of several rapid-response technologies created using recommendations and suggestions from Navy and Marine Corps personnel.
