Platform/Software costs

To maintain a centralized online platform where research progress, findings, visualizations, data tables, etc. can be freely availed to everyone as not ALL the research elements can be included in a journal article. Some of the software needed for data presentation e.g. Adobe Suite require subscriptions plans.

High-Performance Laptop for Geometric Modeling & Data Analysis

The available office laptop lacks the hardware & software specifications needed to visualize complex, multi-circle sacred geometric diagrams & large Excel data tables. E.g. if a circle represents a second, it will require drawing 60 interlocking circles to represent a minute.

Direct Labor Cost

To compensate for research activities and tasks.

Publication & Peer Review Fees

To support submission of findings for peer review & publication in academic journals.

Additional Information

The principal proposer is the Principal Investigator (PI) of Isaac Gregory Odhiambo and the founder of the Gregorian Universal System and Units of Measurement (GUSUMS). The organization operates as a registered organization under SAM.gov and has been assigned the following identifiers:

• Unique Entity ID (UEI): [E5UCPMVYRA78]
• NATO Commercial and Government Entity Code (NCAGE): [SSAL3]

This concept of this research originated as a personal curiosity and hobby. While exploring ancient sacred geometrical circles & patterns—such as the Seed of Life—Isaac Odhiambo discovered that these designs are not only symbolic but also encode quantifiable mathematical and metrology relationships. These relationships appear to correspond with modern systems of measurement.

One of the breakthroughs in this process was the development of a new formula for the circumference of a circle, derived from sacred geometry. The GUSUMS formula for calculating the circumference of a circle is

Circumference = (Diameter/7) + (Diameter × 3)

The above formula gives the same results as when pi × diameter when pi is exactly 22/7. The GUSUMS circumference formula reveals a direct relationship to the properties & attributes of sacred geometrical pattern as the diameter multiplied by 3 is the perimeter of an inscribed hexagon & the diameter/7 is the number of circles needed to complete the seed of life.

Similarly, the PI developed a chord segment equation that calculates ‘polar’ diameter of a circle or the line segment that cuts across the circle at 60-300 degrees or 120-240 degrees. This was based on the number of divisions of first sacred geometrical as explained in lab note 2 . The new formula for calculating the length of such a chord is;

Chord Segment = Radius × √3

It is the above and other findings that have not yet been published in academic literature that inspired the research and the idea that there is a possibility that there can be more mathematical and metrology discoveries that can be made by doing further research and creating awareness on sacred geometry in recognized and trusted academic journals. previously published in academic literature and are entirely new contributions to mathematics and metrology & hence the importance of this proposal.

Minimizing Bias and Ensuring Objectivity

To reduce the possibility of confirmation bias, the research will implement several strategies:

• 1. All geometric modeling and measurements will be conducted using widely available software (e.g., GeoGebra) with verifiable outputs.
• 2. Data analysis and unit conversion relationships will be subjected to independent review and reproducibility, using structured Excel datasets.
• 3. A control group of randomly generated geometric patterns will be compared against sacred geometrical figures, current figures of measurements, and generally acceptable mathematical constants, formulas, and figures to ensure that observed correlations are statistically significant and not due to arbitrary alignment.
• 4. Results will be shared in open-access formats, by submitting the findings for peer-review & publications in trusted academic journal —ensuring scholarly scrutiny and broader validation.
• 5. The research will utilize sacred geometrical circle. A sacred geometrical circle as explained in lab note 1 is a primary geometric form that serves as the foundational reference for generating subsequent geometrical structures through mathematically consistent and non-arbitrary methods. This means that the attributes & properties of subsequent circles are consistent with the first circle. This reduces biases and errors due to inheritable geometry of subsequent circle, there is no use of free parameters, repeatability, & transparency, & its adoption of geometric precision over interpretation.

Funding this research can play a crucial role in developing and creating a new theory altogether that explains the origins of mathematics and metrology. The research is an attempt at investigating the origins of measurements & mathematics from a new perspective that has never been done before.
