Armaments Research Company (ARC) provides AI-enabled weapon sensors for large-scale combat operations, transforming tactical weapons into sources of battlefield data. Their core product, Armaments.AI, offers capabilities for training game footage analysis, enhanced situational awareness by displaying muzzle orientation and time of discharge, and predictive logistics by automating ammunition consumption reporting. This aims to improve individual soldier survivability, provide commanders with real-time data for decision-making regarding resupply and reinforcements, and reduce cognitive burden on soldiers in the field. ARC has secured contracts and partnerships with entities like the U.S. Army (PEO Soldier, DEVCOM), U.S. Marine Corps, and U.S. Air Force, and has conducted training with the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
