Autonomous science with a collaborative multi-agent system using artificial intelligence
Completed
TRL 1 (started at 1, targeting 5)
Description
In this study; we propose to develop and demonstrate the capability to perform autonomous science measurements with a multi-agent system using active learning based on artificial intelligence
Benefits
The proposed development will be an enabling capability for a variety of missions; including in situ resource utilization for Artemis and human exploration missions; efficient characterization of the environment of other planetary targets; and selecting targets for sample return missions.

How to get involved
This is early/mid-stage (TRL 1) — 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.
