Department of Homeland Security Interoperability Grant
While university researchers are scrambling to find grants, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security can't seem to give its money away.
The department has nearly $2 million dollars to pay for research into security-related video technology, and it hasn't been getting many takers, according to Jennifer White of the Touchstone Consulting Group, which is supervising the grant application process. For the last round of funding, she says, they had only 18 inquiries and nine actual proposals. "And only two of them were deemed acceptable, leaving us with more than $1-million that we couldn't give out."
They hope to do better this time around. The money is supposed to go for research into "interoperability": systems that can move video data from one agency to another or from one type of technology to another. The deadline for applications is June 25.
