Department of War organization. Perceptually-enabled Task Guidance Military personnel are expected to perform an increasing number of tasks and more complex tasks than ever before. Mechanics, for example, are asked to repair more types of increasingly sophisticated machines and platforms, and Medics are asked to perform more procedures over extended periods of time.
The Perceptually-enabled Task Guidance (PTG) program aims to develop artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to help users perform complex physical tasks while making them more versatile by expanding their skillset and more proficient by reducing their errors. PTG seeks to develop methods, techniques, and technology for artificially intelligent assistants that provide just-in-time visual and audio feedback to help with task execution.
The goal is to provide users of PTG assistants with wearable sensors (head-mounted cameras and microphones) that allow the assistant to see what they see and hear and what they hear, and augmented reality (AR) headsets that allow assistants to provide feedback through speech and aligned graphics.
The target assistants will learn about tasks relevant to the user by ingesting knowledge from checklists, illustrated manuals, training videos, and other sources of information. They will then combine this task knowledge with a perceptual model of the environment to support mixed-initiative and task-focused user dialogs.
The dialogs will assist a user in completing a task, identifying and correcting an error during a task, and instructing them through a new task, taking into consideration the user’s level of expertise.

DARPA transferred its first autonomous-ready H-60Mx Black Hawk to the Army on March 20, capping a decade of ALIAS research. Now the same technology underpins an SBIR XL opportunity for small businesses building wildfire autonomy.
Read articleDARPA's DICE program (HR001126S0010) wants the theory and algorithms for a self-organizing collective of AI agents that stays on mission in contested environments with no central controller. It is a 36-month, simulation-only, three-technical-area BAA due August 25, 2026 — and it rewards a rare blend of distributed-systems theory and frontier-model inference control that almost no single lab has under one roof. Here is what DICE is really asking for, who is positioned to win, and how to build a team that can.
Read articleDARPA's FY26 SBIR Release 5 pre-releases August 5, 2026, opens August 26, and closes September 23 — a four-week window. The Department of War now pre-releases SBIR/STTR topics the first Wednesday of every month, turning DARPA solicitations into a predictable annual cadence you can plan around. The most valuable and least-used part is the three-week pre-release period, when you can talk directly to the topic authors before proposals open. Here is how to turn the monthly rhythm and the pre-release window into a real competitive edge.
