OPEN TOPIC - Tactical CB Visualization
SBIR Opportunity Analysis
The DoD Chemical and Biological Defense SBIR program is seeking an innovative tactical visualization capability to improve Warfighter situational awareness and decision support in chemical and biological contested environments. The work centers on a human-machine interface solution that can increase efficient integration, visualization, and sharing of tactical data, potentially as a head-borne, wrist-worn, handheld, or other end-user device. The solution must work with MOPP kits and respirators such as the M50, meet battlefield eyewear safety guidelines, and for software comply with Integrated Sensor Architecture standards, the current Tactical Assault Kit SDK, and DISA STIG guidance while keeping SWAP demands low. Phase I calls for a proof of concept and design specifications, Phase II for a pre-production prototype, and Phase III for performance validation and integration support. The topic is CBD254-009, with release planned for September 3, 2025 and applications due April 29, 2026.
