Completed TRL 4 (started at 3, targeting 4)
The project is to develop an autonomous piloting system, based on analytical and learning algorithms, which are capable of making effective decisions, in both nominal and potentially catastrophic situations. The technology will develop systems that will be intelligent enough to solve complex unknown problems with at least the ability of an expert pilot while also being able to be ?level A? certifiable.
Listed on TechPort itself — the most direct way to ask about this specific project.
This is early/mid-stage (TRL 4) — the most realistic path in is NASA SBIR/STTR, which funds small businesses and research institutions to develop technology aligned with NASA's needs (equity-free, phased funding). Check whether a current SBIR/STTR solicitation topic overlaps with this project's technology area, or contact the project directly (above) to ask.
None of these are guaranteed paths for this specific project — TechPort itself doesn't have an "apply" button. Reaching out to the contact(s) above with a specific question is usually the fastest way to find out what's actually open.
