MORGANTOWN, W.Va., Oct. 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Xtremis, LLC (Xtremis), a Nashville-based startup growing superior, Artificial Intelligence management programs that enhance the efficiency of wi-fi networks in congested RF environments, lately introduced its intention to relocate to Morgantown, WV. This transfer will contain basing Xtremis’ business operations and product improvement actions on the Civil Military Innovation Institute (CMI2) business incubator campus adjoining to the Department of Energy’s National Energy Technology Laboratory.
“Our move to West Virginia will allow Xtremis to capitalize on the unique defense innovation community anchored by CMI2,” stated Shane Van Wyngaardt, Co-Founder and Principal at Xtremis. “We are convinced that the access to talent, quality of life, and cost of living benefits afforded by Morgantown will provide a springboard for our continued growth as a company.”
Xtremis was based in 2021 by a crew of researchers from Vanderbilt University who gained two prestigious problem competitions sponsored by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the nation’s preeminent protection analysis group. Leveraging applied sciences developed by means of the DARPA initiatives, Xtremis has skilled speedy progress since its inception, having been competitively chosen by the US Army’s Pathfinder Program – an initiative led by the US Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM), Army Research Laboratory – to develop a next-generation sensor community referred to as the Advanced Dynamic Spectrum Radio (ADSR). This functionality permits legacy Army radios to adapt to modifications within the Electromagnetic Spectrum, making certain that troopers can talk even within the presence of adversary jamming.
Based upon the success of the Pathfinder ADSR improvement exercise, Xtremis has been chosen to take part within the Army Accelerator Program, an effort championed by Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV) that seeks to quickly transition promising improvements from business to scalable Army merchandise.
