Dynepic, Inc. announces it has been selected by AFWERX for a Phase I SBIR contract in the amount of $75k focused on adapting its MOTAR® Platform to address the most pressing challenges in the Department of the Air Force (DAF).
The Air Force Research Laboratory and AFWERX have partnered to streamline the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) process by accelerating the small business experience through faster proposal to award timelines, changing the pool of potential applicants by expanding opportunities to small business and eliminating bureaucratic overhead by continually implementing process improvement changes in contract execution. The DAF began offering the Open Topic SBIR/STTR program in 2018 which expanded the range of innovations the DAF funded and this month Dynepic will start its journey to create and provide innovative capabilities that will strengthen the national defense of the United States of America.
“Through working with instructional designers on MOTAR, we identified a critical need: the ability to easily and quickly create immersive lessons that increase student engagement, retention, and training readiness, without needing to use external software or coding.” explained Krissa Watry, Dynepic Co-Founder and CEO. “To meet that need, this contract allows us to develop a native, AI-enabled MOTAR Immersive Lesson Builder that empowers users to rapidly create multi-dimensional lessons with immersive scenes, 360° images, models, and multi-modal content selected from MOTAR Hub. Delivered through MOTAR’s XR-optimized learning content management system (LCMS), the resulting lessons work across any device including smart phones and VR headsets, are easily shareable, and are enabled to collect and report student performance metrics.”
Dynepic® is a woman- and service-disabled veteran-founded tech company headquartered in Reno, Nevada whose mission is to power an open ecosystem of multi-dimensional knowledge for a better tomorrow.
