Participation highlights Exyn's expanding presence in the U.S. defense market and engagement with military leaders, government agencies, and prime contractors
PHILADELPHIA, July 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Exyn Defense, the defense business of Exyn Technologies (NASDAQ: EXYN), a leader in autonomous mapping and perception-driven navigation for complex, GPS-denied environments, today announced it will exhibit at the 2026 Pennsylvania Defense & Innovation Summit, being held July 14–15 at the U.S. Army War College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.
The Summit convenes senior military leaders, defense technology companies, government agencies, investors, and prime contractors to accelerate innovation and strengthen the U.S. defense industrial base. The event highlights emerging technologies that could shape the future of national security, including robotics, autonomy, artificial intelligence, advanced manufacturing, and critical infrastructure.
During the Summit, Exyn Defense will showcase Nexys, Exyn's modular autonomous mapping system, powered by the company's proprietary AI-based autonomy engine, ExynAI. Nexys enables aerial and ground robotic platforms to autonomously navigate, map, and collect actionable 3D intelligence in complex, GPS-denied, communications-denied, and previously unknown environments.
Unlike traditional robotic systems that rely on GPS, prior maps, or continuous operator control, Nexys uses ExynAI to perceive its surroundings, localize in real time, avoid obstacles, and adapt its path as conditions change. Its modular architecture allows the same autonomy and mapping capabilities to be deployed across multiple robotic platforms and mission profiles.
These capabilities can support a growing range of defense applications, including subterranean operations, reconnaissance, infrastructure inspection, post-strike damage assessment, and missions in contested or degraded environments.
"The future of defense depends on autonomous systems that can operate where traditional navigation and communications are unavailable," said Guy Barni, General Manager of Exyn Defense. "The Pennsylvania Defense & Innovation Summit brings together many of the organizations driving that future, and we're excited to demonstrate how ExynAI enables robotic systems to operate with greater autonomy in the complex environments where military users need them most. We believe ExynAI and Nexys are well positioned to address a growing range of operational requirements across today's evolving defense landscape."
