Georgia Tech in collaboration with multiple sponsors is introducing Seed Grant Funding for research into the possible uses and infrastructure needs of autonomous vehicles in community and business settings. The collaboration draws on Georgia Tech’s expertise as a leading research university in the smart cities ecosystem and uses a 1.5-mile autonomous vehicle test track at the Curiosity Lab at Peachtree Corners. Owned by the City of Peachtree Corners, Curiosity Lab is an intelligent mobility and smart city laboratory that provides a unique real-world environment for testing innovative research concepts.

 

The intent of the Autonomous Transportation and Connected Roads (ATCR) Seed Grant solicitation is to stimulate novel fundamental or applied research ideas and collaborative exploration in the Autonomous Transportation field using Peachtree Corners’ Curiosity Lab infrastructure. Proposals addressing topics related to autonomous vehicle/transportation research and not exceeding $100,000 will be selected for funding. Proposals must also demonstrate potential impact and evidence of future funding opportunities. Interdisciplinary teams are encouraged but not required. See the links on the right for the complete ATCR Seed Grant solicitation, cover/budget sheet template, and supplemental information about the Curiosity Lab test bed.

Each ATCR Seed Grant solicitation has a different sponsor but is similar in nature and scope.

 

 

 

Completed proposals should be submitted in a single pdf file to alexander.samoylov@gtri.gatech.edu by Wednesday, December 18, 2019.
