The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded Northeastern University a $300,000 Project Grant under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program (CFDA 47.084) on June 15, 2026, with completion scheduled for May 31, 2027. This Phase I award supports the establishment of an open-source ecosystem for four-dimensional (4D) dynamic geometry applications across extended reality (XR), robotics, and autonomous systems. The project delivers planning and design services to scope a unified, interoperable ecosystem that addresses fragmentation in existing 4D geometry tools and data representations. Key deliverables include identification of shared technical abstractions, standardized data formats, and system-level requirements that enable extensible development across multiple domains and accelerate progress in spatial computing applications. The award directly supports national priorities by strengthening data infrastructure for next-generation computing systems with applications in disaster response, critical infrastructure monitoring, and autonomous operations. By establishing common standards and development infrastructure through this planning effort, the project enables broader participation in spatial computing innovation and supports scalable data pipelines that drive economic growth across industry sectors. The work builds upon existing research artifacts and focuses on studying current 4D geometry tools to outline a cohesive ecosystem supporting shared formats and collaborative development infrastructure.Federal Grant Award Summary
