The National Science Foundation awarded Cooperative Agreement 2545788 to In Virtualis LLC, a SBA-certified women-owned small business, for $1.25 million on August 15, 2026, under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program (CFDA 47.084). The award funds development of an artificial intelligence middleware layer that converts minimal biosignals—such as brain-computer interface and electromyographic inputs—into context-aware, multi-step actions. Current biosignal systems provide only two to ten bits per second of control information, insufficient for precise task execution; the middleware bridges this intent-to-action gap by augmenting sparse biosignals with task-relevant contextual information. The platform incorporates three core technical innovations: real-time affordance prediction that infers contextually appropriate actions from video and gaze data, hierarchical action decomposition that maps simple user inputs to multi-step behavioral sequences, and adaptive user modeling that personalizes control strategies through reinforcement learning. This enables users to complete full activities of daily living through virtual and physical reality interfaces. The recipient intends to commercialize the solution through runtime licensing to original equipment manufacturers, supporting rapid adoption across existing distribution channels and clinical and research deployments. Work is performed in Mercer Island, Washington, with a period of performance through July 31, 2028.
