- Description
- The DoD STTR Program objectives include stimulating technological innovation, strengthening small businesses� role in meeting DoD R&D needs, fostering and encouraging minority and disadvantaged persons� participation in technological innovation, and increasing commercial application of DoD-supported R/R&D results.� AF invites small business firms and research institutions to jointly submit proposals under this STTR CSO.� Firms with the capability to conduct research or research and development (R/R&D) supporting the Agility Prime Technology Demonstration Program and commercialize the proposed results are encouraged to participate. Though the topic is truly �Open� (agnostic of industry, technology, and problem area), we have identified known areas of interest for which potential DAF Customers and/or funding have already been identified. These areas, which are designed to facilitate streamlined customer discovery, are broken out into broad �Focus Areas�, are described below. For this specific solicitation, the sole Focus Area supports the Agility Prime initiative: FOCUS AREA 1: Orb/eVTOL/UAM (Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing/Urban Air Mobility): The objective of this Focus Area is to explore potential commercial products being developed in the emerging eVTOL/UAM market for potential disaster response, humanitarian aid, and logistics missions. This sub-topic is intended survey a large scope of technologies to include: autonomy; advanced aircraft materials and manufacturing; novel acoustics techniques; subsystem, aircraft, and portfolio design and analysis tools; rapid mission planning for dense air environments and logistics efficiencies; command and control of air vehicles; robotic landing gear; large flotation devices; modular payload designs; air vehicle data networks and RF waveforms; sense and avoid architectures, algorithms, and sensors; electrical power storage, generation, charging; distributed electric propulsion control techniques.
