The purpose of the GlobalX Innovation Challenge is to accelerate the traditional knowledge generation cycle, rapidly testing applied research theories to enable the discovery of revolutionary dual-use capabilities for the benefit of the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps, the commercial marketplace, and the public.
Led by the Office of Naval Research Global and targeted at researchers in the Indian subcontinent, this challenge addresses a joint Naval need and seeks to deliver outcomes of value to both the U.S. and India. The expected results are promising, potentially game-changing applied concepts whose maturity may be further advanced through separate follow-on technology development efforts.

SBIR Phase I: Compact, High-Performance Metamaterial Acoustic Filter with Monolithic Integrated Signal Processor is sponsored by U.S. Department of Defense (Navy) / Office of Naval Research (ONR). This SBIR topic aims to develop passive acoustic metamaterials that can be integrated with existing Navy acoustic sensors for analog signal processing. The objective is to achieve a 10X improvement in signal-to-noise ratio and a 1000X reduction in post-reception signals, thereby improving system speed and reducing sensor power consumption. While focused on undersea applications, the fundamental research could be relevant to passive acoustic drone detection.
