Wearable Technologies for Physiological Monitoring – Army SBIR|STTR Program Immersive and Wearables, Army SBIR, Phase I Wearable Technologies for Physiological Monitoring Application Due Date: 09/27/2022 The purpose of this topic is to demonstrate a wearable device that senses, collects and monitors real-time physiological data to assess aspects of Soldier operational health and readiness.
This includes, but is not limited to: human performance, cognitive resilience, illness prediction, disease detection and behavioral health across all training and operational environments. The objective is to identify new wearable technologies to address current and future Army needs. Devices with purely medical use cases will not be considered.
Wearable technology innovation in the private sector is outpacing research and development investments across the Army Wearables ecosystem. The Army seeks to leverage new and innovative wearable technologies and capabilities to enhance Soldier operational readiness and sustainability. Wearable sensors unlock new insights to improve human performance and well-being.
Innovations in physiological sensing typically diffuse across commercial use cases, such as athletics, workplace safety, and personal everyday use. High quality physiological data informs better decision making for holistic wellness, which is of interest for several populations outside the Army.
Demonstrate the scientific, technical, and commercial merit and feasibility of the selected technology, participate in capability pitches to Army stakeholders and develop a technology transition plan. 2. Phase I Duration: 90 days 3.
Required Phase I deliverables will include a. A feasibility study to demonstrate or determine the scientific, technical, and commercial merit and feasibility of a selected concept b. Capability pitches to Army stakeholders c.
Technology transition plan Develop a prototype wearable device capable of reliable, real-time physiological data collection. The prototype must have a modular open system architecture that can be integrated into existing and future Army systems for demonstration, testing and evaluation across a range of training and operational environments.
Complete the maturation of the technology developed in Phase II and produce prototypes to support further development and commercialization.

dtic. mil/sti/citations/ADA630142 Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics, and Technology ASA(ALT) releases contract opportunities on an ad-hoc basis to meet Army research and development needs. Army Futures Command (AFC) releases topics during three specific solicitation periods throughout the fiscal year to address the Army’s current and anticipated war-fighting technology needs.
Army STTR follows AFC’s topic release schedule but partners with a university, federally funded research and development center, or a qualified non-profit research institution as part of their contract. Is the opportunity to establish the scientific, technical, commercial merit and feasibility of your proposed innovation. Is focused on the development, demonstration and delivery of your innovation from Phase I.
Represents the commercialization phase of the program in which the company can market their products or services developed in Phase II, either to the government or in the commercial sector. Allows small businesses to submit to Direct to Phase II applications if they performed the Phase I research through other funding sources. Provides funding to projects that require additional funding during their open Phase II contract.
A Phase II Awardee may receive one additional, sequential Phase II award to continue the work of an initial Phase II award. The sequential Phase II award has the same guideline amounts and limits as an initial Phase II award.
Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (supply chain management, logistics coordination, target identifications and simulation) Advanced Materials and Manufacturing (additive manufacturing) Autonomy (unmanned systems, drones, ground vehicle capabilities) Chemical and Biological (detection, defense) Cyber (biometric authentication, secure communications) Electronics (microelectronics, Very-Large-Scale Integration (VLSI)) Electronic Warfare (jamming, spoofing) Human Performance (wearables) Immersive (augmented reality, virtual reality, mixed reality) Network Technologies (antennas, radio frequency, communications systems) Position, Navigation, and Timing (GPS) Power (batteries, generators) Software Modernization (high performance computing, data management and visualization) Sensors (infrared sensing) Weapons Systems (hypersonics, munitions and projectiles, directed energy)

After SBIR reauthorization, the U.S. Army released five new small-business topics under Army FUZE — Ka-Band metamaterial radar, a Li-ion 6T battery open topic, in-transit-visibility blockchain, modular UAS payloads, and the xTech|Phantum prize competition. Awards run from $150K to $300K per Phase I. But the bigger story is the Army's shift from funding parts to funding whole systems. Here is what each topic funds and how to compete.
Read articleNSF's restarted SBIR/STTR program carries two transition rules almost nobody has calendared. Project Pitch invitations issued on or after July 3, 2025 must be converted to a full proposal by November 4, 2026. Phase I awardees whose awards started on or after November 6, 2023 must submit Phase II by the same date. Both cohorts were created by the program lapse, and both cliffs are hard.
Read articleThe Energy Department's first Genesis Mission SBIR/STTR Phase I solicitation offers roughly 40 awards of up to $250,000 against $10 million — but you cannot submit a full application anymore. A four-question, 700-word pitch now decides who gets to apply, there is no Direct to Phase II path for new entrants, and the $147.4 million Phase II pool is closed to everyone who has never won a DOE award.
