Breakthrough technology for a secure future
Synthetik Applied Technologies is an agile research and development company specializing in risk, security, and protection.
Synthetik creates breakthrough technology to mitigate significant threats to the world around us, including terrorism, extreme events, and global environmental impacts.
Subterranean seismic survey
Mapping subterranean sites using machine learning
Synthetik is working with the U.S. Navy to develop a seismic geophysical assessment solution, combining modeling and simulation, synthetic data generation, and machine learning to enable non-destructive subterranean assessments of voids, piles, geological layer composition and structures. Synthetik will compare tomographic reconstruction using physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) with machine learning image interpretation to assess the feasibility of the techniques to accurately map subterranean site conditions.
As part of this work, Synthetik will generate a rich dataset of synthetic training examples. The result of the propject will be a fast, even real-time, full waveform inversion (FWI) capability. FWI is a technique used (primarily) in geophysics and seismology to obtain high-resolution subsurface models of the Earth's interior. Synthetik’s step-change in FWI imaging will have wide ranging application in infrastructure projects, oil and gas, earthquake and environmental imaging and even medical imaging — creating higher resolution images for procedures and diagnostics that will greatly improve traditional ultrasound technology.
Compressible Flow Modeling
Specialists in making codes useful for engineering applications
Synthetik provides world-class experience in the development of data science applications and first-principles-based modeling and simulation codes for solving engineering problems. In particular, Synthetik specializes in extending, optimizing, and verifying codes for highly compressible multiphase and reactive flows. An example of this is blastFoam – Synthetik’s ground-breaking U.S. DoD-endorsed Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code for modeling high explosives.
Synthetik AI | Segmentastic
An automated AI-based platform for 3D object recognition, segmentation, annotation, and synthetic data generation
Segmentastic is an ‘on-the-fly’ machine-assisted annotation capability – as new unknown objects are scanned, identified, and classified, the system will ‘learn’ the new object, thus increasing system accuracy and reducing false positives over time.
A collaborative annotation platform for both 2D images and 3D scans, Segmentastic allows teams to jointly create bounding box and label annotations for objects in 2D and 3D media for use in later machine learning projects. Suitable for multiple applications, Segmentastic has already been deployed to the TSA (U.S. Transportation Security Administration) for scanning passenger baggage.
iBallistix
Creating CFD (computational fluid dynamics) code for ballistic design
Synthetik develops, maintains, and distributes weapons effects analysis code for international defense clients. Synthetik are currently working with the U.S. Army’s CCDC Armaments Center to develop a new state-of-the-art multiphase, multidimensional interior ballistics CFD solver - iBallistix. This high-fidelity physics-based tool will allow the Army to more effectively develop charge designs and ignition systems that perform efficiently and reliably. This in turn provides greater confidence in the safety concerns associated with gun launch testing and reduces the number of testing iterations.
