## Description

**Amendment 01:** The purpose of this amendment is to add Proposers Day information and update the e-mail inbox. Veloci-RapTOR will explore whether a force-based measurement consistent with velocity extraction and signal isolation is achievable. The goal of a future Microsystems Exploration topic in this area would be to develop force-transduction metrics and methods overcoming the research challenges associated with velocity extraction. This µE is intended to be a fundamental research effort with a duration of 24-months comprising a single phase.
