AWARD DESCRIPTION CTL23-1004-E00 SMART-X INTERNET OF THINGS (IOT) LIVING LAB PURPOSE:THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROJECT IS THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SMART TECHNOLOGY LAB AND EXPERIMENTAL TESTING ENVIRONMENT ENABLING ADVANCES IN INTELLIGENT TECHNOLOGIES, INCLUDING FOR USE IN SMART CITIES AND COMMUNITIES, UNCREWED AERIAL SYSTEMS (UAS), AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES, ROBOTIC MANUFACTURING SYSTEMS, AND OTHER APPLICATIONS.ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMED:THE RESEARCHERS WILL DEVELOP A STRATEGIC PLAN FOR, AND IMPLEMENT, A FLEXIBLE, SECURE, STANDARDS-BASED RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURE, INCLUDING ADVANCED COMMUNICATIONS AND COMPUTATIONAL CAPABILITIES. THIS RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURE WILL ENABLE THE FUTURE USE, EXPERIMENTATION, AND TESTING OF CYBER-PHYSICAL SYSTEMS (CPS) AND INTERNET OF THINGS (IOT) CAPABILITIES IN SELECTED SMART-X APPLICATIONS, WHERE X CAN BE A HOME, A CITY OR MILITARY BASE, A COMPLEX INDUSTRIAL CONTROL SYSTEM, AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE (DRONE), OR OTHER TECHNOLOGY APPLICATIONS OF COMMUNITY INTEREST. EXPECTED OUTCOMES:THE RESULTS OF RESEARCH IN THE PLANNED SMART TECHNOLOGY LAB AND CPS/IOT TESTING ENVIRONMENT ARE EXPECTED TO ADVANCE THE NATION'S GOALS FOR EFFICIENT, SUSTAINABLE, AND RESILIENT CPS/IOT-BASED SYSTEMS INCLUDING AUTONOMOUS TRANSPORTATION, ADVANCED MANUFACTURING, AND CLEAN ENERGY. THE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT OF A METHODOLOGY FOR IDENTIFYING AND EVALUATING PROJECT OUTCOMES, ALIGNED WITH THE NIST SMART CITIES FRAMEWORK AND NIST HOLISTIC KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS FRAMEWORK, WILL DEMONSTRATE FEASIBILITY FOR WIDER CIVIC ADOPTION AND REPLICATION IN OTHER SMART CITIES AND COMMUNITIES, AND SUPPORT IMPROVED SERVICES, ECONOMIC GROWTH, AND ENHANCED QUALITY OF LIFE FOR THEIR CITIZENS. THE RESEARCH AND ENHANCED TESTING CAPABILITIES WILL ALSO SUPPORT A GLOBALLY COMPETITIVE U.S. MANUFACTURING SECTOR THROUGH ADVANCEMENTS IN INTELLIGENT CONTROL SYSTEMS AND ROBOTICS.INTENDED BENEFICIARIES:CITY OF ROME, NY AND ONEIDA COUNTY HIGH-TECH ECOSYSTEM DEVELOPMENT; U.S. TRANSPORTATION, MANUFACTURING, AND ENERGY SECTORS; AND RESEARCHERS AND STUDENTS IN THE NORTHEAST ACADEMIC AND INDUSTRIAL COMMUNITIES.SUBRECIPIENT ACTIVITIES:THE RECIPIENT PLANS TO SUBAWARD FUNDS, FOR STEM CAMP INDIVIDUAL INSTRUCTORS, BRANDING AND MARKETING OUTREACH, USE INSPIRED CHALLENGE GRANTS (4), CYBER DEVICE CHALLENGE HACKING EVENTS (4), AND A CONTRACTED WRITER.
