Official Description

This D2P2 effort is to develop low Size, Weight, Power, and Cost (SWaP-C) technology for an on-board sensing payload to provide local situational awareness. This effort specifically looks to target low SWaP-C payload and on-board processing capability to sense and assess objects within the local area. This effort targets the combination of in-space sensing and sense-making with the goal to enable both self-protection through the organic ability to detect, track, and characterize immediate threat...
