About this award

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $150K research grant to Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) on September 1, 2023, for the development of PI-MAP (Planetary Instrument for Multimodal Autonomous Perception). The project, to be performed at WHOI's Woods Hole, Massachusetts facility, is scheduled for completion by May 31, 2026. This is an unset-aside grant award that supports WHOI's continued innovation in autonomous systems and scientific instrumentation development—areas where the institution has demonstrated substantial expertise through previous NASA and federal agency partnerships.

The award reflects NASA's investment in advanced planetary exploration technologies through autonomous perception systems capable of multimodal sensing. WHOI, a leading independent oceanographic research institution with an extensive portfolio of federal contracts and grants, brings specialized capabilities in autonomous vehicle design, sensor development, and marine technology to this project. The institution's track record includes developing next-generation autonomous underwater vehicle sensors and other sophisticated scientific instruments, positioning it as a capable performer for NASA's planetary science instrument development objectives.
