Abstract:ABSTRACT: This research plans to use existing MSSS sensors to investigate methods to detect and track faint objects (greater than or equal to 14th visual magnitude) in any orbit around the Earth using ground-based electro-optics sensors, without prior knowledge of the object's orbit. The… more
Abstract:ABSTRACT: Space situational awareness is often limited by the ability of sensors to produce resolved data on space objects. Large objects cannot be resolved with small low-cost telescopes; objects in geo-synchronous orbit are too remote to be resolved. The best hope of ending these limitations is… more

Abstract:We propose to develop an active motion-compensation platform for roll-on/roll-off (RO/RO) cargo vessel discharge operations onto a floating platform that reliably and safely enables the military to supply needed cargo for military operations and humanitarian assistance in conditions up to sea state… more
Abstract:We propose to develop a semi-autonomous anchoring system that will reduce the number of personnel required, reduce the number of bottom-condition-specific components, reduce the amount of training required to operate, and reduce the likelihood of errors. The solution will reliably enable the… more
Abstract:DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Cerebellar involvement has been implicated in a large spectrum of disorders. Reduced cerebellar volumes have been reported in alcoholism, autism spectrum disorders, schizophrenia, mood disorders, and essential head tremors. As an example of the work demonstrating… more
Abstract:Helmeted navy divers are exposed to high levels of noise from self-generated mechanisms, such as regulator exhaust, and external sources, such as underwater tool-generated noise. Noise exposure limits can be easily exceeded especially if effective communications through helmet-mounted speakers is… more
Abstract:Oceanit will develop a method to increase the coupling factor in personal cooling systems. In our Phase I efforts the system will be designed and components selected. This system will meet all of the DOD requirements for the application
Abstract:ABSTRACT: Oceanit"s M2IWS system (Multi-Spectral, Multi-Threat Integrated Warning Sensor) provides an integrated"triple threat"sensor that combines missile warning (MW), laser threat warning (LW), and hostile fire indication (HFI) in one integrated sensor. These functions are… more

Abstract:ABSTRACT: Leveraging expertise in plant physiology, biology, electro-optics, rf, electrical engineering, physics and signal processing, Oceanit proposes to develop an innovative device to prevent and control unwanted plants and weeds. BENEFIT: Oceanit's directed energy weed abatement and… more
Abstract:The Army needs affordable and very quiet exhaust systems that can meet typical Army constraints such as backpressure, weight, size, etc. Oceanit proposes to develop a novel high-performance, polymer-based exhaust system and manufacturing technology that can meet the target performance of at least 35… more
Abstract:ABSTRACT: In the proposed effort, Oceanit will develop a prototype avian denial system using a unique approach to detect and deter avian populations from critical areas. Oceanit"s solution will be non-lethal, harmless to personnel, and able to interfere with currently used sensor systems. Such… more
Abstract:ABSTRACT: Oceanit proposes a revolutionary approach for a concrete joint sealer that can sustain temperatures from subzero to 1700 degrees F while maintaining satisfactory mechanical properties at ambient conditions. The proposed approach utilizes the high temperature resistant materials to enhance… more
Abstract:VIPA is a modular streaming data architecture. It breaks complicated problems into components, which are linked into processing chains. On top of this foundation, is a set of image processing functionality. This is in turn used to build the end-user ISR application.
Abstract:Hearing loss is the number one disability of soldiers returning from today"s battlefield. Issued hearing protection devices are often not worn by soldiers because it can reduce situational awareness through undesired acoustic attenuation. Current passive hearing protection options cannot offer… more
Abstract:Oceanit proposes an innovative system which will mitigate the impact of system latency on the operators of UAV-mounted EO/IR sensors. This system will include a combination of advanced graphic user interfaces, automated control and image processing. The system will be based entirely on the… more
Abstract:Networks, such as the Energy Sciences Network (ESnet), are an interconnection of multiple networks in a complex mesh that require continuous real-time monitoring and management. As with any network, issues arise in ESnet that need to be analyzed and resolved in a timely manner. The issues in ESnet… more
There are several categories such as “By Agency”, “By Year”, “By State” etc.
Select a checkbox within a category to refine your search results.
Each of your selections is listed in the “Narrow Search Filters” bar. You can uncheck these selections to remove them.
Search for Either Criteria
When you select multiple values within a category, the results will include values that match either of the selections.
For example, selecting “2005” and “2007” in the “By Year” category will display results that include either 2005 OR 2007 in the results.
Narrowing the Search Results
You can refine your search results across categories. To narrow down your results, select multiple values across different categories. The results will only include values that match the selections across the categories.
For example, selecting “2005” in the “By Year” category and “NASA” in the “By Agency” category will only display the results that contain both “2005” AND “NASA” in the results.
