Micro Display for Augmented Reality Information Overlay

The Department of Defense, specifically the Army, is seeking proposals for the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program focused on developing micro display technologies for Augmented Reality (AR) applications. The objective is to create a micro display optimized for ground Soldier applications, capable of high brightness and low power consumption, which can be integrated into head-mounted display systems for effective use in various conditions. This initiative is crucial for enhancing the capabilities of Soldiers by providing a lightweight, affordable heads-up display that can operate for hours on AA batteries, with a target performance of 1000+ line resolution and a 40+ degree field of view. Interested parties can submit Phase I proposals with a funding limit of $250,000, due by June 25, 2025, with the opportunity opening on May 28, 2025.
