Future Lockheed Navy Tech Center to Focus on Human-Machine Interfaces

Lockheed Martin‘s mission systems and training unit will open a new facility later this year in Moorestown, N.J. to develop surface warfare combat systems, Seapower Magazine reported Friday. 

Richard Burgess writes that Lockheed intends to focus on human-machine interfaces at the $3.5 million Surface Navy Innovation Center.

Jim Sheridan, director of Aegis U.S. programs at Lockheed, said in a Friday news conference that the company will work with the U.S. Navy, several universities and information technology companies such as Google to make intuitive weapon systems.
