DAI OTA Human-Machine Integrated Formations (HMIF) Network

The intent of this project is to alert industry of the Government’s interest in finding and prototyping integrated solutions for robotics in order to develop and manage an HMIF architecture that will guide emerging Robotic and Autonomous Systems (RAS) capabilities.

We are seeking industry inputs that will provide a converged, tactically resilient network capability for the transport of time sensitive, safety critical robotic command and control data intermixed with generic data going between robotic platforms and payloads and the relevant entities in the human formation that integrate with the machines. The requirement for HMIF Networks is 6 to 12 months to accommodate integration of platforms and payloads resulting in a TRL 7+ at completion of this project.
