Dynamic Prevention of Biofouling (DyPOB)

DARPA is soliciting innovative research proposals for the Dynamic Prevention of Biofouling (DyPOB) program. The overall goals of the DyPOB program are to develop and demonstrate coatings and/or surfaces that are inherently impervious to biofouling for extended periods – especially while at zero or at low velocities, are biocide free, are durable for several years, and whose effectiveness does not degrade over the life expectancy of the coating/surface.
