- Description
- The Combat Capabilities Development Command Soldier Center (CCDC SC) is conducting a Request for Information (RFI) for Concept (White) Papers on U.S. Exoskeleton Technologies for Soldier applications. This is not a Request for Proposals (RFP). The Army must meet the demands of the future strategic environment in alignment with its strategic vision and priorities. As such, the Army must make the Brigade Combat Team (BCT) leaner while retaining capability, preventing overmatch, and setting the conditions for fundamental change. The CCDC SC is interested in advancement of human physical performance augmentation such as wearable load assistance technologies and exoskeletons. Technologies should exhibit the potential to assist high stress/high fatigue tasks such as heavy and repetitive lifting and other forms of load transportation, combat, mission support, and other lethality based operations. The Army views exoskeletons as a capability to enable Soldier Lethality, which is among the Army's top Modernization Priorities as well as direct support to mission readiness.
