Description: 

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Defense Sciences Office (DSO) is sponsoring a Proposers Day webcast to provide information to potential proposers on the objectives of an anticipated Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for the Enhanced Night Vision in eyeglass form factors (ENVision) program. The Proposers Day will be held via webcast on January 21, 2021 from 10:00 AM to 4:30 PM. Advance registration is required for viewing the webcast. Note: All times listed in this announcement and on the registration website are Eastern Time.

The goals of the ENVision Proposers Day are to (a) introduce the research community (Proposers, Academia, and Government) to the ENVision program vision and goals, (b) explain the mechanics of a DARPA program and the milestones of this particular effort, and (c) encourage and promote teaming arrangements among potential organizations that have the relevant expertise, facilities, and capabilities for executing a research and development program responsive to the ENVision program goals.

LIGHTNING TALKS

 Attendees may be afforded the opportunity to give a brief 3-minute oral presentation during the webcast outlining their interests and capabilities. The purpose of these presentations is to facilitate teaming discussions among the attendees. Upon registering, attendees may indicate if they would like to give an oral presentation. Due to limited availability, DARPA will accept submissions on a first-come, first-served basis, and does not guarantee that these requests to brief will be fulfilled. 

Submitted briefing materials are limited to a single, PDF-format slide, which should be appropriate for public release, as they will be shared with the session via webcast. The slide must be submitted to ENVision@darpa.mil by 5:00 PM on January 15th, 2021. DARPA will contact submitters upon receipt of their slide with additional guidance for the webcast.
