Maintaining security while keeping our soldiers safe is our nation’s ultimate mission. Virtual Reality (VR) is the way to do that. Through VR we can train our soldiers in replica battlefields without unnecessarily putting them in danger.
S2MARTS has announced that Hypersonics Advanced Manufacturing Test Capability Test (HAMTC) has been awarded to Fiber Materials, Inc. and Purdue Applied Research Institute. With modern hypersonic weapons capable of traveling over five times the speed of sound, technology has never moved faster than it does today.
When it comes to hypersonic missiles and the trusted microelectronics that make them (and other military tools) so effective, we're losing the battle to China. CIA Director William Burns called the Chinese government "the most important geopolitical threat we face in the 21st century."
The Additive Manufacturing for Technology Protection prototype project selected six performers through the S²MARTS OTA. Powered by NSTXL, S2MARTS is the DoD’s premier rapid OT contracting vehicle for flexible acquisition in trusted microelectronics, strategic & spectrum mission, and other critical mission areas.
On 13 September 2021, the Defense Health Agency Virtual Education Center was awarded through the Training and Readiness Accelerator OTA. After a review of vendor submissions and selected demonstrations, NetImpact Strategies Inc. was awarded the DHA VEC prototype project.
In this exclusive interview with S2MARTS Director, Brooke Pyne, we dive into the brand new OTA called S2MARTS Research. Brooke helps to cover the ins and outs of S2MARTS Research, discussing what makes the OTA so unique, how much membership costs, and much more.
5G is the newest generation in wireless network technology with speeds 10x faster than 4G, and in some areas being up to 100x faster. Telecommunications companies are frantically racing to increase their 5G coverage, but why are countries also competing to dominate this new, contested spectrum space?
On September 30, 2021, pLEO Data Exploitation and Enhanced Processing (DEEP) prototype was awarded to Slingshot Aerospace through the Space Enterprise Consortium (SpEC) OTA vehicle managed by NSTXL. The DEEP prototype automates manual human data exploitation techniques, and delivers finished user-friendly products at low latencies.
The Precise Space Flight Experiment has been awarded by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) to Tyvak Nano Satellite Systems, Inc. This prototype, released through the Space Enterprise Consortium (SpEC), will develop a spacecraft for new Very Low Earth Orbit missions with a plan to launch in 2024.
On 15 September 2021, the Radio Frequency Generation (RFGEN) Subsystem Development and Integration (SDI) Prototype Effort was awarded through the TReX OTA by the Army Contracting Command – Orlando. The prototype project was officially awarded to Amherst Systems Inc - A Northrop Grumman Corporation located in Williamsville, NY.
