The Department of Defense is asking small businesses to submit offers for ten drone systems, ground control stations, hand controllers, a launch interface and two days of flight training. The government also seeks quantitative decision reliability for AI-accelerated computational modeling of cardiovascular devices and a physiological signal dataset to support AI/ML wearable research. Additionally, the Air Force requests research on advanced AI-driven target-tracking architectures and the DoD asks about rapid-manufacture capabilities for expeditionary unmanned aerial systems.
