TAC-FUSE
Built at National Security Hackathon (by Army xTech) · May 2, 2026 · San Francisco, CA
TAC-FUSE is a local-first edge C2 node for Problem Statement 2: Edge Deployments and Drone Operation. The demo proves that a front-line operator can keep command authority over drones from a hardened laptop or backpack-class kit when central connectivity is intermittent, degraded, or fully denied. The primary capability is not object detection. The primary capability is resilient local C2: operator tasking, drone state, audit log, route/geofence alerts, and deferred sync all persist in local SQLite (`mission.db`) before any external service is contacted. Sensor inference and accelerator paths demonstrate useful local processing once the C2 loop is already working.
