Advanced Technology Development and Convergence
Abstract
This Project aims to accelerate the Army's goal of finding innovative and nontraditional solutions to the most difficult technological problems. Efforts to pair with nontraditional entities, such as industry, to rapidly solve System and Sub-System Component and Prototype Convergence by merging smaller subsystems towards a more complex solution and integrating one or more technologies to prove out concepts. This project enables the Army to quickly implement novel solutions garnered from operational experimentation. It allows the Army to accelerate efforts with industry to better inform requirements. Through the Army's Innovation Oversight Board, Army Senior leadership approves Innovation projects in the budget year and year of execution based on priority and opportunity, ensuring that innovations have a high potential for filling capability gaps and transitioning to Army Science and Technology (S&T) projects to inform an optional technology investment strategy and rapidly deliver capabilities to the Soldier. The cited research is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas. Work is performed by the Army Application Lab.
