Michael S. Francis, USAF, Fax No. (703)696-8401, SN96-03. The Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) will host a briefing to industry to be held at GRC, Inc., 1900 Gallows Road, Room 0083, Vienna, Virginia on Friday, March 1, 1996, from 9 AM-12 PM. ARPA is currently assessing the feasibility and mission application of Micro Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (MUAVs). Vehicles with the greatest characteristic dimension at less than 15 cm. The purpose of this forum is to bring together members of industry, educational institutions, small businesses, and government research and development organizations for a briefing on current findings and a discussion of key development areas, related technologies, and military applications. Background: An ARPA-sponsored workshop was held in November, 1995 to assess the technological state of the art, understand the relevance of defense applications, and collect data required to underpin a Micro Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Program. The results of that workshop have increased interest in further examining the feasibility and role of MUAVs in future military applications. This present industry-wide forum seeks to solicit feedback from participants on numerous related issues including system concepts, enabling capabilities, and critical technologies necessary for successful MUAV development and demonstration. In addition to the broad industry-government-university participation expected, representatives of small businesses are encouraged to attend specifically because of the relevance of this topic to future Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) programs. Participation will be limited to two individuals per organization. No special clearances are required. There will be a $3.00 per individual cash registration fee collected. Due to the need to provide adequate accommodations for this forum, please respond no later than February 26, 1996 by fax with the names of two attendees to: ATTN: ARPA/TTO, MUAV FORUM, Colonel Michael S. Francis, Fax Number: (703) 696-8401, reference Special Notice Number SN96-03.
