Technology Innovation

Abstract

The Tech Innovation program focuses on rapid innovation and demonstration efforts to address priority warfighter problem sets and National Defense Strategy focus areas. The current effort is focused on development of atomic clocks and biotechnology to accelerate progress along the Quantum Science and the Biotechnology Department of Defense (DoD) Modernization priority roadmaps. Combatant Commanders and the Intelligence Community (IC) continue to receive information that adversaries are looking to disrupt our common networked tactical picture by deny our access to a common time through the Global Positioning System (GPS). Under this program, commercial companies will mature DARPA’s investment in innovative atomic clocks with tri-service technical oversight, creating a prototype Next Generation Atomic Clock (NGAC) for commercial production. This program will also demonstrate emerging biotechnology advancements to stimulate additional investment in biotechnology that can address DoD needs. The anomalous health incidents (AHI) program focuses on research and development to determine the cause of AHI affecting government personnel at locations around the world. The National Security Council led efforts include multi-Service/multi-Agency Laboratory collaboration to assess bioeffects and causes of AHI.
