Completed TRL 4 (started at 3, targeting 4)
Develop an integrated multi-mission system-level architecture to enable testbed simulation and testing of mission operations for autonomous flight systems
Establishes an integrated software, hardware, and simulation framework to support a design and testing capability needed to verify the operational performance of autonomous flight and ground systems, a critical element to encouraging mission adoption of such autonomy capabilities
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.
