This second group of \u201cSwarm Sprinters\u201d will have the opportunity to work with one or both of the OFFSET Swarm Systems Integrator teams to develop and assess tactics as well as algorithms to enhance autonomy.<\/p>\n<p>The focus of the second sprint is enabling improved autonomy through enhancements of platforms and\/or autonomy elements, with the operational backdrop of utilizing a diverse swarm of 50 air and ground robots to isolate an urban objective within an area of two city blocks over a mission duration of 15 to 30 minutes. Swarm Sprinters will leverage existing or develop new hardware components, algorithms, and\/or primitives to enable novel capabilities that specifically demonstrate the advantages of a swarm when leveraging and operating in complex urban environments.<\/p>\n<p>The conclusion of the second sprint is aligned with a physical and virtual experiment, where \u201csprinters\u201d will be able to more deeply integrate and demonstrate their technology developments. The sprinters will have the opportunity to work with DARPA and the Swarm Systems Integrators to further expand the capabilities relevant to operational contexts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs operations in urban environments continue to evolve, our warfighters need advanced capabilities to keep up with the ever-changing complexity of the urban scenario,\u201d said\u00a0Timothy Chung, program manager in DARPA\u2019s\u00a0Tactical Technology Office (TTO). \u201cThe focus on enhancing autonomy in operational contexts will further advance future swarming capabilities allowing the warfighter to outmaneuver our adversaries in these complex urban environments.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The announcement for this second swarm sprint follows the awarding of contracts to the first cohort of OFFSET Swarm Sprinters to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Lockheed Martin, Advanced Technology Laboratories<\/li>\n<li>SoarTech, Inc.<\/li>\n<li>Charles River Analytics, Inc.<\/li>\n<li>University of Maryland<\/li>\n<li>Carnegie Mellon University<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Each of these inaugural sprinters will focus on generating novel tactics for a multi-faceted swarm of air and ground robots in support of the mission to isolate an urban objective, such as conducting reconnaissance, generating a semantic map of the area of operations, and\/or identifying and defending against possible security risks.<\/p>\n<p>Instructions for submitting a proposal to participate in the second core swarm sprint (under Amendment 2), as well as full OFFSET program details, are available on the Federal Business Opportunities website:\u00a0https:\/\/go.usa.gov\/xRhPC.
