Anduril Industries and Ultra Maritime have announced an exclusive partnership to develop a groundbreaking autonomous ocean sensing capability. In a press release, the companies detailed their collaboration, which combines Ultra Maritime's Sea Spear deployable acoustic arrays and AI-enabled acoustic processing with Anduril's undersea autonomy capabilities, including Dive XL and Seabed Sentry.

This partnership aims to enhance submarine detection capabilities for the U.S. and allied nations by providing a low-cost, distributed undersea surveillance system. The system leverages Anduril's Lattice communications framework to deliver real-time, autonomous submarine sensing across large ocean areas. The joint effort is expected to achieve end-to-end in-water testing by the end of 2025.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
