The principal objective of the AMME program is to invent radically new approaches to additively manufacture 3D non-planar microsystems. The program will develop materials and a new additive manufacturing technology capable of simultaneously printing multiple materials at high-resolutions and very-high throughputs.
The end goal of the program is to demonstrate a novel functional microsystem that uses the AMME technology to create the mechanical structure and interface between individual microsystem components. Specifically excluded is research and development that primarily results in evolutionary improvements to state-of-the-art AM techniques.

DPA26BZ06-DV023 is a Direct-to-Phase-II SBIR paying $700,000 over 18 months plus a $500,000 option. The physics demands 256x more transmit power than the systems that qualify you to compete, and DARPA will not accept modeling alone as proof. Here is the eligibility wall, the five engineering problems, and who can realistically win it before the October 21 close.
Read articleRelease 6's SBIR topics got the attention. Its three STTR topics — SHIELDER, fuel-flexible electric propulsion, and hypersonic wind tunnel noise diagnostics — are all Direct-to-Phase-II, all require a research institution to perform at least 30 percent of the work, and all close October 21, 2026. The feasibility gates are the real filter.
Read articleDPA26BZ06-DV026 offers $300,000 at Phase I or $1,800,000 as a single Direct-to-Phase-II tranche with no options. The deliverable is a simulated auction market that measures whether AI agents deceive, collude, or manipulate the humans they serve — measured entirely from the outside. Here is the 90% efficiency gate, the team composition most bidders will get wrong, and why this topic sits in DARPA's biology office.
