The Department of Homeland Security is planning an experiment this fall to test autonomous drones and vehicles along the US-Canada border. This joint exercise with Defense Research and Development Canada, named ACE-CASPER, will evaluate the ability of these systems to stream surveillance data across the border using 5G networks. While framed as a public safety and emergency response simulation, the experiment also aims to demonstrate capabilities for gathering real-time battlefield intelligence, using terminology from the Department of Defense.
