The Technology Strategy Board is to invest up to £1.5m in feasibility studies to stimulate innovation in networked intelligent sensor systems, and new applications of them. Our aim is to support the development of the ‘Internet of Sensors,' in which sensors enable all kinds of machines and appliances to communicate and co-ordinate with each other through the information network.
Proposals must be collaborative and business-led. Project partners can include businesses of any size, as well as academic researchers. We expect to fund pre-industrial feasibility studies in which a business partner will generally attract up to 65% public funding for their project costs (75% for SMEs).
We expect projects to last from six to 18 months, and to range in size from £50k to £150k.
This competition opens on 9 December 2013. The deadline for registration is at noon on 22 January 2014 and the deadline for receipt of applications is noon on 29 January 2014. A briefing event for potential applicants will be held in London on 11 December 2013.
