The Government intends to announce a Request for Project Proposals for execution of multiple project awards in support of Ground Robotics related research areas. The purpose of this announcement is to provide members of the Robotics Technology Consortium, and industry in general, advanced notification of Government intent. In December 2007, the Government announce its intent to enter into an Other Transaction Agreement with one (1) consortium in support of Ground Robotics related Research and Development projects. As a result of the Ground Robotics Industry Day in January 2008, one (1) consortium formed, the Robotics Technology Consortium. It is the intent of the Government to make multiple project awards to the members of the Robotics Technology Consortium as a result of member project proposals submitted via the Request for Project Proposals. The anticipated Research Areas for which project proposals will be sought is as follows: (1) Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) Tele-operation, (2) Improved Depth Perception to aid Tele-Operation, (3) Architecture for Rapid Structure Characterization, (4) Unmanned Sniper Detection, (5) Force and Tactile Sensing based Manipulation, and (6) Mapping in Complex Urban Terrains. The Request for Project Proposals will be issued to the Robotics Technology Consortiums Administrative Agent, the National Center for Manufacturing Sciences, who will then issue the request to the members of the Consortium.
