Improv Proposers Day Webcast Special Notice March 29 and March 30, 2016 (DARPA SN-16-26)
From the notice:
PROGRAM OBJECTIVE AND DESCRIPTION
The DARPA/DSO Improv program is seeking prototype products and systems that have the potential to threaten current military operations, equipment, or personnel and are assembled primarily from commercially available technology. The technology scope of Improv is broad, and the program is structured to encourage participation by a wide range of technical specialists, researchers, developers, and skilled hobbyists. Performers may reconfigure, repurpose, program, reprogram, modify, combine, or recombine commercially available technology in any way within the bounds of local, state, and federal laws and regulations. Use of components, products, and systems from non-military technical specialties (e.g., transportation, construction, maritime, and communications) is of particular interest.
Pre-recorded seven hour webcast and recording is prohibited:
Tuesday, March 29, 2016 at 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m., and Wednesday, March 30, 2016 at 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
No cost but pre-registration is required:

This looks like fun!
Your effort won’t be wasted in any event. If your idea isn’t funded here, you can still market it to others.
PS: I tried to register on 12 March 2016 and the website was down. 🙁 Will try again next week.
