Grant Description: DARPA is soliciting innovative research proposals in the area of microscale inertial sensors, specifically in area of vibratory Microscale Rate Integrating Gyroscopes (MRIG). The MRIG program seeks to develop technology needed to measure rotation over a wide range of dynamic conditions; that is, to operate interchangeably between low-rate and high-rate angular motion while preserving the precision of detection. Proposed research should investigate innovative approaches that enable revolutionary advances in science, manufacturing, devices, or systems. Specifically excluded is research that primarily results in evolutionary improvements to the existing state of practice. All administrative correspondence and questions on this solicitation, including requests for information on how to submit a proposal abstract or full proposal to this BAA, should be directed to one of the administrative addresses below; e-mail to DARPA-BAA-10-39@darpa.mil is preferred. See full DARPA-BAA-10-39 attached.
