DPLS · DarkPulse, Inc.

DarkPulse, Inc. entered into an exclusive patent license agreement with the U.S. Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD) for three patents covering advanced LADAR (Laser Detection and Ranging) and pulse timer technologies. The license grants DarkPulse exclusive U.S. rights to commercialize these government-developed inventions, which are intended for defense, security, and industrial sensing applications. Key financial terms include a $15,000 upfront fee, a 5% running royalty on net sales (excluding U.S. government sales), and escalating minimum annual royalties starting at $10,000 in year three. DarkPulse must bring the patents to practical application within four years and manufacture products substantially in the United States. Sublicensing requires Navy consent with a 50% revenue share. The U.S. government retains a worldwide, royalty-free license. The company plans to deliver a working prototype to a manufacturing partner for full-scale production. This agreement aligns with DarkPulse's strategy to integrate government-developed technologies into its product suite and could open new revenue streams in defense and security markets.
