AI-Enabled Agnostic, Open Architecture, Advanced Automated Search, Track and Target Recognition Enhancement Platform

The agency is seeking an artificial intelligence-enabled, agnostic, open architecture, advanced automated search, track, and target recognition enhancement platform. This project aims to automate and optimize search and track functions, particularly for electro-optical and infrared sensors on unique platforms. The agency is trying to solve the problem of high operator workload, limited situational awareness, and slow closure of the kill chain during operations. The scope of work requires the development of a software-intensive, platform-agnostic capability for airborne, fixed-wing platforms that integrates into existing imaging sensors to accommodate the necessary processing power. Bidders must provide documentation demonstrating a clear understanding of advanced automated search and track algorithms, advanced concepts and software, open-source architectures, and the integration of miniaturized and hardware-lite solutions. The project also requires a prototype roll-on and roll-off capability for flight evaluation, which will integrate into and operate with existing onboard sensors. Only onshore organizations from the United States are eligible to participate in this opportunity. The agency requires the performance of the work to take place offsite. The agency is currently looking for proposals to establish the budget, and specific key dates are not provided in the source.
