Description
LEOS - LINEAR ELECTRO-OPTICS IN SILICON
Score Rationale
LEOS is a materials science / photonics engineering program with no mention of AI/ML techniques, autonomous systems, or data-driven algorithms — the deliverable is linear electro-optic devices in silicon, a hardware component. Problem framing is purely technical (materials development) with no operational military context articulated. APL is an FFRDC (Federally Funded Research and Development Center) operated by Johns Hopkins, a legacy research institution, not an AI-native company.
