The objective of this SBIR topic is to advance methods for generating and labeling synthetic data representing various classes of Radio Frequency (RF) signals. This synthetic data will support the training of Electronic Support and Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) models aimed at enhancing automated detection, characterization, and identification (DCI) of Signals of Interest (SoI).
Direct to Phase II
Allows small businesses to submit to Direct to Phase II applications if they performed the Phase I research through other funding sources.
Equipment Rigging with Augmented Reality / Computer Vision
The Aerial Delivery field has a systemic shortage of personnel at Skill Level 1 positions across all COMPOS that places the mission of packing personnel parachutes, large cargo parachutes, and rigging of equipment at risk of mission failure. This topic aims to deliver wearable, augmented reality and/or computer vision devices to non-Parachute Rigger Soldiers to increase technical capabilities for rigging their unit organic equipment, thus reducing overall Army Parachute Rigger requirements.

Large Language Model Course of Action Analysis
The objective of this research topic is to explore Boyd’s Observe, Orient, Decide and Act Loop with the goal of finding disruptive courses of action in a multi-domain environment that allow warfighters to impact both the rate of engagement with a competitor, but also the rhythm of engagement that allow our commanders and warfighters to leverage both the complexity and dynamism inherent in a multi-domain operation to create decisive wins through strategic surprise.

AI-Driven Production of Coarse- and Nano-Nitramines
This Army SBIR solicitation is for artificial intelligence and machine learning-driven methodologies that can control the production processes for Nano-Nitramines. The Army seeks to produce the most efficient, effective formulations currently known in an agile and flexible manner. AI/ML-driven manufacturing and formulation science can apply “cradle to grave” for Nano-Nitramines, and can enable their widespread adoption by making research and production automated.
