Center for Innovation

The Lighthouse

The Center for Innovation (also known as The Lighthouse) represents the intersection of Lockheed Martin’s commitment to national defense and passion for innovation.

The center provides both a physical and virtual portal into the vast network of Lockheed Martin’s laboratories, research centers and engineering facilities.

Designed as a 50,000 square foot, high-end operations center, it is part of Lockheed Martin’s investment in global research and development programs and infrastructure.

It is this unique infrastructure, optimized for collaborative experimentation and analysis, which has facilitated numerous Cooperative Research And Development Agreements (CRADA), as well as Human In The Loop (HITL) experiments and analytical efforts, between Lockheed Martin and its government, international, academic and industry partners.

?

What We Do

We are the center for defense tech, multidomain integration, experimentation, wargaming, tabletop exercises, modeling and simulation, and decision analysis in both real and synthetic environments. We bring engineers and operators together to create Innovation.?

We partner with government and industry teams to tackle complex problems and develop new concepts and capabilities.

Wargaming

Wargaming

New warfighting concepts are explored within conceptually immersive environments, generating decisions, actions, and interactions amongst players.
Exercises

Tabletop Exercises

Tabletop exercises (TTX) broaden understanding of complex topics by providing insight that drives informed decisions.
Workshops

Analytical Workshops

Analytical workshops derive insight from data gathered during specific activities designed to generate and capture brainstorming between event participants.
Experimentation

Live, Virtual, Constructive (LVC) Experimentation

LVC experiments are designed to exercise and assess the performance of various combinations of organization, procedures and enabling technologies under realistic, repeatable conditions in a tailored experimental environment.

?

Demonstration

Complex, Tailored Demonstration

Tailored demonstrations of concept platform, system, or system of systems performance are executed for each target audience of decision makers, influencers, customers and/or industry partners.

?

Simulation

Modeling and Simulation

Modeling and simulation capabilities are shared through access to corporate and government networks into a single collaborative environment. This capability is highly agile and designed to support the rapid pace of innovation.
