About this award

The Department of the Army awarded a Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract to Inception Robotics, LLC on May 9, 2024, with a ceiling value of $1.90M and an ultimate completion date of November 9, 2025. This total small business set-aside contract is structured as a firm fixed-price definitive contract and represents the progression of Inception Robotics' SBIR engagement with the Army following the company's Phase I award of $149,719 in August 2023. The work will be performed in College Park, Maryland, and focuses on advancing the company's autonomous mobile robot (AMR) technologies.

Inception Robotics, a self-certified small disadvantaged business specializing in autonomous mobile robots and advanced navigation systems, will leverage this Phase II funding to further develop innovations in collision avoidance, deep reinforcement learning, and socially-compliant navigation for robots operating in densely populated environments. The company's prior SBIR Phase I demonstrated technical merit and feasibility, and this Phase II award supports progression to more advanced prototype development and commercialization assessment. These innovations have potential applications across defense and civilian sectors, including airport operations, healthcare facilities, and retail environments where autonomous systems must safely navigate complex indoor spaces.
