ROME — ANDRO Computational Solutions, LLC located at the Beeches Business Park in Rome, New York and celebrating its 25th year of business, is expanding its operations. The company is launching the Marconi-Rosenblatt Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Innovation Lab, named in honor of Guglielmo Marconi and Frank Rosenblatt, two pioneers notable in the fields of radio communications and artificial intelligence, respectively. The new lab will be headed by Jithin Jagannath, Chris Maracchion and Anu Jagannath of ANDRO and falls under the company’s expansion efforts through the New York State Consolidated Funding Application (CFA) grant reimbursement program.
The lab will focus on applying artificial intelligence and machine learning solutions for next-generation wireless networking to advance the state of the art in Internet-of-Things technologies, space communications and other customer applications. The pioneering solutions will also be applied to natural language processing, speech recognition, computer vision, big-data analytics, brain-computer interfaces and intelligent solutions for a better AI-enabled future. The lab’s applied research will directly impact healthcare, education, transportation, security, smart cities, and defense markets among others. The expansion will bring up to ten new jobs to ANDRO over the next 6-9 months. The company is planning a further expansion in the near future to establish a quantum communications lab and a medical technology subsidiary called AcceliPHI, which are expected to be announced in the coming months. The company is taking these steps as part of an incremental plan to expand and launch additional operations in new commercial ventures.
The combined artificial intelligence, machine learning, and Internet-of-Things business sector is a trillion-dollar market that continues to grow as systems are becoming increasingly wireless, autonomous and intelligent. The catalyst for ANDRO’s expansion has been recent contracts to develop autonomous command and control solutions for drone applications and realizing the potential market growth that exists.
Andrew Drozd, president stated, “This is a significant step in our company’s expansion into new markets building upon our proven success in wireless command, control, communications, cyber, and computational technologies for edge services. Jithin Jagannath and the team have successfully leveraged innovative artificial intelligence and wireless communication solutions that are on a fast-track through federal funding of $5 million. Our solutions will benefit a wide variety of military and commercial applications including connected vehicles, smart cities and other autonomous uses. We plan to announce a further expansion in the near future of our quantum communications lab and medical technology research subsidiary as a result of new opportunities that have come our way.”
