Solomon’s research relates to optics and the development of high-power lasers with increased eye safety for operators in the field. His research will help the warfighter safely conduct missions in the future.

Hobbs is a nationally recognized expert in autonomy technologies for an area called run time assurance, and currently leads the Safe Autonomy Team at AFRL. This includes a Safe Trusted Autonomy for Responsible Spacecraft project team of 50 researchers coordinated across 10 geographically separated sites investigating development of safe reinforcement learning controllers, run time assurance algorithms and human-autonomy teaming for air and space applications. "When AFRL has multiple people selected as fellows or associate fellows at AIAA or another professional society in any given year, it reflects on AFRL's relevance and leadership in aerospace research,” said Hobbs, ACT3 safe autonomy and space lead, Sensors Directorate. “Associate fellowship means that the contributions of scientists and engineers go beyond their impact to AFRL by pushing the larger aerospace community into the future."
