UNLV and tech company Terbine are partnering to develop an agentic AI system designed to help autonomous machines collaborate and enhance supply chain logistics. UNLV will support the effort through resources at its Advanced Engineering Building, including a drone aviary equipped with a fleet of drones of various sizes, launch pads, and industrial-grade communication systems. The university will also provide outdoor test sites across Southern Nevada for land, air, and marine trials. Together, UNLV and Terbine aim to enable the secure coordination of potentially millions of autonomous machines to transform fragmented supply chains into an adaptive, intelligent ecosystem.
