About this award
The Air Force Research Laboratory awarded a $719.9K Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract to Mad Apparel Inc., operating as Athos, to develop remote physical training capabilities leveraging wearable sensors and artificial intelligence. The contract, awarded March 22, 2021, with completion targeted for October 19, 2023, represents a total small business set aside. Athos specializes in wearable muscle activity sensors that provide real-time insights into athletic training load and movement quality through personalized biometric data, capabilities that directly support the contract's objective of maintaining and improving physical readiness in distributed training environments where service members may operate remotely or in non-traditional training settings.
The Phase II award builds upon earlier SBIR investments in Athos's wearable sensor technology and reflects AFRL's interest in advancing training effectiveness and injury prevention through data-driven approaches. As a small business contractor, Athos brings specialized expertise in muscle activity monitoring and AI-driven training analytics to address the Air Force's need for scalable, remote physical training solutions. The work performed at the company's Redwood City, California facility complements broader Department of Defense initiatives to leverage emerging wearable technologies and artificial intelligence for personnel readiness and performance optimization.
