GLOYER-TAYLOR LABORATORIES INC — Department of Defense STTR Phase II: STTR PHASE II - ADDITIVELY PRODUCED TELESCOPE MIRRORS: THE SPECIFIC GOAL OF THIS EFFORT PR
GLOYER-TAYLOR LABORATORIES INC — STTR Phase II award from Department of Defense.
Phase II STTR prototype / development signal
- Phase II is where Department of Defense funds deeper R&D after feasibility. Incumbents with Phase II history are serious competitors on adjacent topics.
- Use this award as past-performance context and to map customer organizations for STRATFI/TACFI-style transition planning.
- Obligated amount $1,249,996 is consistent with substantial Phase II-scale effort; compare to related awards from the same agency.
- Tagged technology areas: Materials & Manufacturing, Space & Satellite. Follow those hubs for open topics and peer winners in the same cluster.
Summary
Gloyer-Taylor Laboratories received nearly $1.25 million from the Air Force to continue developing a 3D-printing system for making telescope mirrors. The work builds on prior research funded by DARPA, MDA, and NASA.
