Description

PROPOSERS DAY: The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Strategic Technology Office (STO) will host a Proposers Day in support of DARPA-PS-27-06, Unison program, on 5 November 2026 at the System Planning and Analysis Research Collaboration Center (SPARCC), 4075 Wilson Blvd., Suite 201 from 9:00AM-2:00 PM EST. The purpose of this conference is to provide information on the Unison program; promote additional discussion on this topic; address questions from potential proposers; and provide a forum for potential proposers to meet potential teaming partners. PROGRAM OBJECTIVE AND DESCRIPTION: The objective of the Unison program is to develop and evaluate collaborative-autonomy approaches that jointly adapt team decision-making and communications during mission execution. Unison will investigate approaches that enable autonomous teams to modify tactics, behaviors, coordination relationships, and information exchange as mission complexity and operational variability increase and communications become extremely constrained and/or degraded.
