About this IDV

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency awarded an Other Transaction IDV to University of Notre Dame DU Lac with a ceiling of $1,250,000 on January 22, 2024, for embedded distributed fiber optic sensing in direct metal laser melting created parts. The award operates outside the Federal Acquisition Regulation as an Other Transaction agreement, providing DARPA flexibility to engage the university on rapid prototyping and advanced manufacturing research.

The effort supports development of in-situ sensing capabilities for additive manufacturing processes, leveraging Notre Dame's expertise in materials science, advanced sensing systems, and manufacturing technology. The university's Notre Dame Research division serves as the performing organization.

This OT IDV represents one of Notre Dame's strategic partnerships with DARPA for cutting-edge technology development. The university maintains complementary research capabilities in sensor systems, materials characterization, and advanced manufacturing that directly support the distributed fiber optic sensing mission for laser-melted metal components used in defense applications.
