Agility Prime Phase II Awards

Posted on by Joe Kirby in contract award, USAF

We are excited to announce not only one but two Agility Prime Phase II awards! The first effort will focus on Urban Air Mobility for satellite communications connectivity while the second effort will focus on emerging battery technologies.

We are confident that the technologies and toolsets we’re working on to support the UAM network bring significant value-added to eVTOL primes as well as other users in both the commercial and defense sectors. In total, these awards account for nearly $1.5M in funding over a 15 month period-of-performance. As a two-time Agility Prime Phase II awardee, this is an honor we do not take lightly and remain humbled at AFWERX’s confidence in our technical understanding and approach. These awards expand the company’s R&D bonafides, infrastructure, and innovative mindset to solve the world’s hardest problems.

Digital Acquisition Meets Urban Air Mobility

Posted on by Joe Kirby in contract award, Uncategorized

We’re excited to announce our award of three research contracts from the U.S. Air Force as part of Agility Prime, a non-traditional program to accelerate the commercial market for advanced air mobility vehicles.

The research addresses emerging technology needs and ecosystem-wide capabilities in three key areas: (i) enterprise optimization of urban air mobility satellite communications; (ii) lifecycle tradespace analysis of emerging urban air mobility battery technologies; and (iii) immersive 3D auditory perception in urban air mobility operating environments. Infinity Labs is teamed with The Ohio State University in all efforts.

The solutions being developed by the Infinity Labs team are geared toward “big picture” understanding of synergies amongst enabling technologies, vehicle platforms, and system-of-system implications of commercial and military operations. In addition to addressing specific research questions as part of Agility Prime, the Infinity Labs team will be creating a flexible and open analytical framework that effectively brings digital acquisition tools and methodologies to the urban air mobility market.

In addition to The Ohio State University, the Infinity Labs team also includes Ansys – the global leader in engineering simulation. Scott Granger, Director for USAF Programs at Ansys states, “Ansys is proud to collaborate with Infinity Labs on Agility Prime and push the boundaries of innovation. Digital engineering is a core tenant to Air Force strategy and building virtual twins of UAMs with Infinity Labs will help demonstrate the value of modeling & simulation.”

Infinity Labs is grateful for the support from our research and industrial partners and the sponsorship from the Air Force Research Laboratory. We would also like to thank Dr. Will Roper, SAF/AQ, whose visionary leadership continues to inspire and enable innovators throughout the defense community.

Infinity Labs is an innovation-focused defense firm based in Dayton, Ohio that fosters an entrepreneurial mindset to solve our nation’s hardest problems. Want to learn more? Check out the rest of our website.

Prime contract award announcement for USAF ABMS

Posted on by Joe Kirby in announcements, contract award, USAF

The pirates of Infinity Labs proudly raise their colors and claim victory over the status quo today. We gleefully announce a $950M ceiling IDIQ Prime award on the United States Air Force Advanced Battle Management System program. For a moment, we’d like to put down our celebratory ale horns and humbly thank the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC) for both the honor and opportunity associated with this award. While Infinity Labs is a relatively new company, this award demonstrates the breadth and depth of our capability in this domain. Thank you for the selection. The official approved media statement follows:

Infinity Labs LLC has been awarded a $950,000,000 ceiling indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract for the maturation, demonstration and proliferation of capability across platforms and domains, leveraging open systems design, modern software and algorithm development in order to enable Joint All Domain Command and Control (JADC2). This contract is part of a multiple award multi-level security effort to provide development and operation of systems as a unified force across all domains (air, land, sea, space, cyber, and electromagnetic spectrum) in an open architecture family of systems that enables capabilities via multiple integrated platforms.
