Application deadline: 01/07/15 |
General description: |
Precise Robust Inertial Guidance for Munitions (PRIGM) has the below topics of interest.
Of particular interest to PRIGM:AIMS are novel low-CSWaP inertial sensing modalities that provide increased capabilities for: 1) Navigation through high-shock and high-vibration events with high dynamic range, lownoise, and high accuracy. 2) Inertial sensors with negligible degradation of zero-rate output or scale factor calibration under conditions of high shock, high vibration, ambient temperature excursion, long-term storage, or power cycling. 3) Navigation of highly dynamic platforms for mission durations of >20 minutes, with endpoint accuracy of <10 meters RMS. Technical Area 1: Inertial Sensors for High Dynamic Platforms: The focus of Technical Area 1 (TA1) is to develop and build sensors capable of navigation-grade performance in the most demanding dynamic military environments. TA1 is particularly interested in novel sensing modalities that challenge the existing tradespace between CSWaP and environmental robustness. Technical Area 2: Inertial Sensors for Long-Duration Platforms: The focus of Technical Area 2 (TA2) is to develop and build inertial sensors with characteristics suitable for navigation of platforms with long duration, up to 1000 seconds.
