Abstract: THIS PHASE I PROJECT DESCRIBES AN INTELLIGENT END EFFECTOR WITH 7 SENSOR SYSTEMS THAT WILL PERFORM ROBOTIC TASKS IN SUPPORT OF GROUND BASED SPACE SHUTTLE/SPACE STATION OPERATIONS. THE SENSORS ARE INTEGRATED INTO A UNIQUE FASHION TO PROVIDE MORE AND BETTER INFORMATION ABOUT THE REAL WORLD. IMAGING… more
Company: Syncrys Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOE / SBIR / 1988 / 1
Abstract: THIS RESEARCH ADDRESSES THE NEED FOR OXYGEN SENSORS TO PROVIDE HIGHLY LOCALIZED, RAPID SENSING (ON THE MICRON SCALE) WHILE OPERATING IN A CORROSIVE ATMOSPHERE AT ELEVATED TEMPERATURE AND/OR PRESSURE. THE MATERIALS USED WILL BE IN THE FORM OF COMPLEX EUTECTIC THIN-FILMS. AN INTENSE LASER BEAM WILL BE… more
Company: TECHNOLOGY FOR ENERGY CORP. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1988 / 2
Abstract: A NONDESTRUCTIVE TECHNIQUE IS PROPOSED FOR THE ON-LINE DETERMINATION OF GRAIN SIZE IN POLYCRYSTALLINE MATERIALS. THE METHOD CORRELATES FLUCTUATIONS IN INTENSITY OF X-RAYS DIFFRACTED FROM VARIOUS CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC PLANES IN THE MATERIAL TO THE GRAIN SIZE. THROUGH THE USE OF POSITION-SENSITIVE X-RAY… more
Company: Advanced Control Technologies Agency/Program/Year/Phase: NASA / SBIR / 1987 / 1
Abstract: A DIRECT TRANSFORMATION FROM IMAGE COORDINATES TO ROBOT JOINT COORDINATES WILL BE DEVELOPED TO SERVE AS THE BASIS FOR A BINARY VISION SYSTEM FOR SIX DEGREE OF FREEDOM ROBOT CONTROL. A SYSTEM IDENTIFICATION ALGORITHM WILL ENABLE THE SYSTEM TO BE USED AS A TURN-KEY SYSTEM WITH ANY ROBOT WHICH ACCEPTS… more
Company: Agricultural Identification Agency/Program/Year/Phase: USDA / SBIR / 1987 / 2
Abstract: THERE IS LITTLE DATA CONCERNING WATER CONSUMPTION BY INDIVIDUAL FARM ANIMALS. THE OBJECTIVES OF THIS PROJECT ARE TO DESIGN AND CONSTRUCT A PROTOTYPE WATERING SYSTEM WHICH CAN MEASURE AND RECORD INDIVIDUAL WATER CONSUMPTION IN GROUP-FED ANIMALS. A COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE WATERER WILL BE ADAPTED OR A… more
Company: Analysis And Measurement Services Corporation Agency/Program/Year/Phase: NRC / SBIR / 1987 / 2
Abstract: SAFETY SYSTEM TEMPERATURE SENSORS IN NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS ARE SUBJECT TO PERFORMANCE DEGRATION BECAISE PF AGING EFFECTS. A PROGRAM OF LABORATORY TESTING AND IN-SITU TESTINGIS NEEDED TO ENSURE THAT AGING DOES NOT LEAD TO REDUCED SAFETY AND AVAILABILITY. MUCH OF THE TECHNOLOGY NEEDED FOR THIS PROGRAM… more
Company: AMERIGENICS, INC. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: NASA / SBIR / 1987 / 2
Abstract: THE MODERN DIGITAL FLIGHT DATA RECORDER (DFDR) PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY TO CAPTURE IN-FLIGHT DATA NEVER POSSIBLE WITH THE OLDER ANALOG "TIN-FOIL" TYPE RECORDER. ADDITIONALLY, THE DFDR PERMITS SOPHISTICATED DATA REDUCTION AND CORRELATION OF NUMEROUS PARAMETERS. ALTHOUGH THE DRDR IS PRIMARILY ORIENTED… more
Company: AMERIGENICS, INC. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: NASA / SBIR / 1987 / 2
Abstract: A VARIETY OF MAN-MACHINE INTERFACE CONCEPTS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED IN RECENT YEARS IN AN ATTEMPS TO INCREASE THE FLOWOF RELEVANT INFORMATION BETWEEN THE SYSTEM AND OPERATOR, ANDALLEVIATE THE NEED FOR COMPLEX, PROGRAMMER-ORIENTED INPUTS THROUGH THE USE OF USER-FRIENDLY WORKSTATIONS. THESE CONCEPTS HAVE… more
Company: AMERIGENICS, INC. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: NASA / SBIR / 1987 / 1
Abstract: ADVANCES IN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, DIGITAL HARDWARE MINATURIZATION, AND COMPUTER GRAPHICS ARE OPENING THE DOOR FOR THE RAPID EVOLUTION OF HUMAN-COMPUTER SYSTEMS IN WHICH THE COMPUTER PERFORMS AN INCREASING SHARE OF THE INTELLIGENT FUNCTIONS AND PROCESSING IN A DECISION-MAKING SITUATION. THUS, THE… more
Company: AMERIGENICS, INC. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1987 / 2
Abstract: INTERMEDIATE MAINTENANCE IS NORMALLY ACCOMPLISHED BY HIGHLY TRAINED, HIGHLY SKILLED TECHNICANS. THE ABILITY TO PLACE SUCH SKILLED PERSONNEL IN "REMOTE-FIELD POSITIONS" HAS BECOME ECONOMICALLY IMPRACTICAL BASED ON THE NUMBER OF FAILURES THAT OCCUR AND THE HIGH COST OF TRAINING. THIS BEING THE CASE,… more
Company: AMERIGENICS, INC. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1987 / 1
Abstract: THE TACTICS AND DOCTRINE OF THE MODERN BATTLEFIELD DICTATE THE NEED FOR INTELLIGENT MACHINES TO ASSIST HUMAN OPERATORS. THE TECHNOLOGY ASSOCIATED WITH ENCAPSULATING THE KNOWLEDGE AND TECHNIQUES USED IN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) TO CAPTURE THE REASONING PROCESS THAT HUMAN EXPERTS PERFORM WILL HAVE… more

Search Options
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.
