Robotics & Autonomy grants
Funding for physical systems that have to work outside the lab
Robotics sits across NSF, DoD, NASA and USDA, and the winning applications are the ones that stop demoing and start measuring. Reviewers reward field data, failure analysis and a Phase I that closes a specific autonomy gap.
$240M+ won by our team
PhD-level specialists, never a template or an AI tool.
Agencies funding robotics & autonomy
Programs that fit robotics & autonomy companies
NSF SBIR: Robotics
Manipulation, perception, human-robot interaction and mobility.
DoD SBIR
Unmanned systems, autonomy stacks and contested-environment operation.
USDA SBIR
Agricultural robotics and automation topics.
What reviewers actually score
- Quantified autonomy metrics. Interventions per hour, success rate, cycle time
- Field or fielded-analogue testing rather than lab-only results
- Safety and certification pathway addressed early
