About this award
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency awarded a definitive contract to University of Utah for research and development of scalable analog neural-network architectures with direct sensor interface (SANDIS) on June 9, 2025, with a $4.24 million ceiling under cost-no-fee pricing.
The originating solicitation, posted May 22, 2024 with a September 9, 2024 due date, sought innovative proposals for power-efficient analog neural network circuits capable of directly interfacing with analog sensor outputs. The program required demonstrating over 200x power efficiency gains in Phase 1 and over 2000x power efficiency gains in Phase 2, along with specified accuracy targets and fabrication and testing of analog neural-network hardware. No set-aside was used. Place of performance is Salt Lake City, UT. The contract extends through January 6, 2030 and represents a modification to incrementally fund and update the effort under existing authorization.
