Beyond the Sensor - Mercury Innovation Addresses Access to
Critical Information

Key technology transitions

Over the years, Mercury’s visionary technology transitions have moved defense prime contractors from proprietary to COTS-based solutions, and have enabled supercomputer performance with the highest compute density per cubic foot – a key metric in military electronics for defense communications. The next transition - the Converged Sensor Network™ (CSN™) Architecture - delivers a new level of information access in the battlefield.

Why CSN?

The CSN Architecture combines sensor signal processing with information management technologies to deliver transformational access to information in the tactical edge. By consolidating those capabilities into a single, unified architecture, the convergence of multiple sensors, multiple missions, and multiple users is made possible.

An efficient, persistent architecture

The CSN Architecture is designed to offload some of the exploitation and fusion responsibilities from the information analysts, with the goal of reducing the amount of time it takes to get accurate information to the tactical user.

Exploitation and dissemination – everything starts with the sensor

The future of ISR starts with the sensor. Today, data exploitation and dissemination are mutually exclusive concepts in the ISR realm. The CSN Architecture networks data exploitation to multiple sensors and their signal processing assets, so that the end-user somewhere in the network cloud can tune the knowledge extraction process to their specific needs.
