Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) – various opportunities

* Innovative Systems for Military Missions: seeks system and subsystem level technologies that enable revolutionary improvements to the efficiency and effectiveness of the military. Focus areas: Ground Systems, Maritime Systems, Air Systems, and Space Systems. Up to $1-million/<18 months.DARPA-BAA-14-25

* Biological Technologies: approaches that enable revolutionary advances in science, technologies, or systems at the intersection of biology with engineering and the physical and computer sciences.Amount & duration not specified. DARPA-BAA-14-38

* Information Innovation Office (I20) Office-Wide: explores game-changing technologies in the fields of information science and technology to anticipate and create rapid shifts in the complex national security landscape. Amount & duration not specified. Amount & duration not specified. DARPA-BAA-14-39  

* Microsystems Technology Office (MTO): advanced imaging architecture and systems, chip scale sensors, electro-optical infrared, emerging MEMS tech, energy-efficient computing, etc. Amount & duration not specified. DARPA-BAA-14-42

* DSO Office-Wide: physical sciences, mathematics; multidisciplinary topics: transformative materials, supervised autonomy, novel sensing and detection, and complexity.Amount & duration not specified. DARPA-BAA-14-46

* Strategic Technologies: technology development related to Battle Management, Command and Control (BMC2), Communications and Networks, Electronic Warfare, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR), Position, Navigation, and Timing (PNT), Maritime, and Foundational Strategic Technologies and Systems.Amount & duration not specified. DARPA-BAA-14-48

* Near Zero Power RF and Sensor Operations: transform the energy efficiency of unattended sensors through elimination or substantial reduction of the stand-by power consumed by the sensors while they await a signature of interest. The improved energy efficiency is expected to result in an increase in the sensor mission lifetime from months to years. The Near Zero Power RF and Sensor Operations (N-ZERO) program aims to create intelligent sensors that can process and detect RF and physical sensor signatures, consume less than 10 nW of power, and attain a low false alarm rate of 1 per hour or better in an urban environment.Amount not specified/approx. 33 months. DARPA-BAA-15-14

* Communicating with Computers (CwC): basic research effort that aims to accelerate progress toward two-way communication between people and computers in which the machine is more than merely a receiver of commands and in which a full range of natural modes is tapped, including potentially language, gesture and facial or other expressions. Amount& duration not specified. DARPA-BAA-15-18

* Future Artic Sensing Technologies: concepts for low-cost, rapidly-deployable, environmentally friendly, unmanned sensor systems, including deployment and data reach-back from above the Arctic Circle that can detect, track and identify air, surface and subsurface targets. DARPA-BAA-15-28
