Summary
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Strategic Technology Office is soliciting innovative and disruptive technology proposals across multiple research areas (e.g., acoustic communication and sensing, advanced computing, additive manufacturing, AI, autonomy, and systems engineering). Proposers must submit an abstract prior to a full proposal; abstracts will be evaluated on scientific/technical merit, relevance to DARPAs mission, and price realism. The opportunity is intended to fund proof-of-concept mission systems and related research projects with estimated budgets in the range of $500,000 to $5,000,000.
