Additional Information
| Agency Name: | National Institute of Justice |
| Description: | The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) is the research, development, and evaluation agency of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and a component of the Office of Justice Programs (OJP). NIJ provides objective, independent, evidence-based knowledge and tools to enhance the administration of justice and public safety. NIJ solicits applications to inform its search for the knowledge and tools to guide policy and practice.
NIJ is seeking applications for funding for research and development of sensor and surveillance technologies to address the following specific needs of State and local criminal justice agencies: 1. Detection of the broad spectrum of contraband, including metallic and nonmetallic weapons, at any controlled access point. The preferred solution would be a product that, once commercialized, would be commercially available for under $25,000. To prevent contraband from entering correctional facilities, the preferred technology will be a portal that can also detect contraband concealed within body cavities. 2. Noninvasive, continuous monitoring of a subjects use of both illegal and prescription substances. 3. Detection of trace blood at crime scenes from a distance of 5 feet or greater. 4. Accurate detection of gunshot residue in the field in real time. 5. Ability to extract full streams of digital multimedia evidence (DME) from incompatible systems, while maintaining the integrity of the metadata. How to Apply: Applications will be submitted through the Office of Justice Programs Grants Management System (GMS). GMS is a Web-based, data-driven computer application that provides cradle to grave support for the application, award and management of grants at OJP. Applicants should begin the process immediately to meet the GMS registration deadline, especially if this is the first time they have used the system. Complete instructions on how to register and submit an application in GMS can be found at www.ojp.usdoj.gov/gmscbt/.
