12 State Kalman Filter
Traditional methods of tracking fail to estimate and predict sudden state changes, such as the rapid accelerations capable of advanced missile threats.
We are committed to enabling a robust missile defense architecture to protect our nation and allies from ballistic and advanced missile threats. We deeply understand the technical challenges throughout the kill chain and offer innovative, world-class solutions for target detection, tracking, discrimination, resource management and more.
Where It All Started
Our founders created best-in-class technology for missile defense applications for over a decade. Their success inspired them to start ExoAnalytic and build a company dedicated to the defense of our nation and solving other problems of national importance.
See Our StoryDetecting a threat requires real-time processing of the sensor focal plane. We are a leader in algorithm development for processing real-time images from visible and infrared CCD sensors. Our algorithms provide end-to-end processing of raw frames, yielding positional and brightness data for objects in the scene while filtering out unwanted observations from stars, debris, clouds, etc. This filtering enables our advanced processing algorithms to estimate object positions with sub-pixel precision.
Our advanced algorithms convert threat target detections from radar and optical sensors into integrated system tracks. These tracks allow the missile defense system to predict where targets will be in the future and enable downstream discrimination algorithms to determine which of the tracked objects need to be intercepted. This critical capability is required for mission success.

Algorithm Performance Comparison
With our DNN solution, rapid accelerations are captured and contained within the covariance estimate significantly more often than traditional methods.
During a missile defense engagement, most tracked objects are non-threatening (e.g. debris, fuel tanks, hardware, etc.) and should be treated differently than hostile objects. We develop advanced algorithms which rapidly and autonomously determine the nature of each object and decide which object(s) to intercept. This process, called discrimination, is perhaps the most critical function of the missile defense system aside from tracking.
We understand the end-to-end command, control, battle management, and communications (C2BMC) processes required for mission success. Our cutting-edge algorithms for sensor management and weapon allocation enable optimal C2BMC operations.
