Opportunity Information: Apply for 19 536
The National Robotics Initiative 2.0 (NRI-2.0) seeks to enhance the development and use of collaborative robots, known as co-robots, that can work seamlessly alongside humans in various aspects of daily life. This program builds on the original NRI and emphasizes the idea of ubiquity—ensuring co-robots can integrate smoothly into our environments.
NRI-2.0 focuses on four key research areas:
1. **Scalability**: Research in this area aims to enable robots to work effectively with multiple humans or other robots, adapt to uncertain real-world conditions, and operate safely and reliably in complex settings.
2. **Customizability**: This includes developing co-robots that can easily adapt to different tasks and environments, personalize interactions with people, and communicate naturally, both verbally and non-verbally.
3. **Lowering Barriers to Entry**: This involves creating accessible resources and testbeds for conducting robotics research and developing open-source hardware and software to foster greater participation in the field.
4. **Societal Impact**: Research here focuses on integrating robotics education into curricula, fostering a skilled workforce, and exploring the broader implications of co-robots on society, including ethical and legal considerations.
The initiative encourages collaboration among academic institutions, industry, non-profits, and other organizations to bridge the gap between fundamental research and practical applications. Multiple federal agencies support this program, including the NSF, USDA, DOE, NASA, and DOD. For specific project inquiries, potential applicants are advised to contact the appropriate agency listed in the solicitation.Apply for 19 536
