The SCI-341 Research Symposium (RSY) was hosted by Estonian MOD and Tallinn University of Technology and was held virtually on 18-19 May 2021. Research in the field of Situation Awareness (SA) shows that advancing technologies enable autonomous systems and swarms that may have both permission and ability, to perform required tasks in unstructured environments without continuous human guidance. SA, as an essential enabler for decision-making capability, becomes equally important for both human operators and autonomous systems. Altogether, the symposium comprised of one KN speech and eight presentations divided into three sessions. The first session discussed relations between concepts of autonomy and SA including presentations on control methods for autonomous swarms, weather intelligence for autonomous operations and synthetic environments for modelling and simulation of robotic and autonomous systems. The second session discussed how to provide better SA for human in the loop, both via improved swarm displays and anomaly detection via explainable artificial intelligence. The third session in turn discussed swarm intelligence in the context of SA through topics such as swarm tasking, swarm performance evaluation using synthetic environments, and swarm to swarm interactions. During a final discussion, it was decided that a potential outcome to be explored could be an activity on human-machine teaming and shared representation of their SA. Around 70 participants from nine different nations attended the RSY. Papers can be found on the STO website
