Emesent receives A$3m grant for Cortex AI autonomy platform
Emesent secured an A$3 million Australian Government grant toward a A$7.4 million programme to develop and commercialise Cortex AI, its modular GPS-denied autonomy platform.

Evidence notes
- Cortex AI is designed to transfer GPS-denied autonomy across drones, ground robots and heavy vehicles.
- Emesent reports more than 12 early adopters already using the platform.
- The grant funds part of the wider A$7.4 million development and commercialisation programme rather than representing customer revenue.
