About this award
Brigham Young University was awarded a $300,000 research grant on May 24, 2023, for the Metalens Origami Deployable Lidar (MODEL) Telescope project, with performance continuing through May 23, 2026. The award, issued through a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center, supports research and development in advanced optical and deployment technologies at BYU's Provo, Utah campus. This grant represents continuation of the university's established research portfolio in origami-inspired deployable systems and space technologies, areas in which BYU has received prior support from the National Science Foundation and NASA for related work on origami-based deployable space systems and manufacturing innovations. The contract was awarded without a set-aside designation, reflecting full and open competition.
The grant aligns with BYU's demonstrated expertise in engineering research, advanced manufacturing, and space-applicable technologies as evidenced by the institution's robust federal research portfolio spanning the National Science Foundation, NASA, and the Department of Energy. As a comprehensive research university with significant experience as both a prime contractor and grantee since 2001, BYU brings substantial technical capabilities to this metalens and lidar telescope development initiative, which combines optical engineering principles with origami-inspired deployment mechanisms to advance space observation and sensing technologies.
