Abstract:A program for the research/development of a reflective, near infrared glucose analyzer isproposed. The design approach allows for an optical computing approach to signal processing andpattern recognition that has the potential for a compact, low-cost instrument for diabetic hometesting.The basic… more
Abstract:This proposal represents a joint small business/university development effort to investigate the problem of plant health monitoring and to evolve a preliminary design of a spectral imaging system. Biotronics Technologies, as the small business SBIR proposer, has extensive background in the… more
Abstract:Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) devices have shown some promise as specific gas detector/analyzers for a number of applications. These sensors operate as dual oscillators in which one SAW is coated with a sorbent material specific to c particular gas. The frequency of the coated oscillator changes with… more
Abstract:Site characterization to detect subsurface contamination is of a enormous interest for both public and private applications. Biotronics is proposing to adapt an arc excitation spectrometry technology originally developed for anlaysis of liquid nutrient solutions at NASA to the detection of heavy… more
Abstract:Our goal is to produce an economical stage control system that reduces the labor-intensity ofclinical microscopic testing (i.e., cytology, histology and cytogenetics). We will develop a new meansto optically detect position during microscopic examination. Optical positioning integrated… more
Abstract:The advent of genome analysis through molecular biology has brought into prospect thecomplete sequence analysis of the human genome and other species. The data is being gathered at anever increasing rate and the ways in which they will be analyzed are evolving even as it is beingcollected. The… more
Abstract:This grant will improve the software for DNA sequencing by integrating the components of basecalling, sequence assembly and post-assembly analysis into an integrated software system. To test theperformance of the software configurations, data for known regions of E. coli will be resequenced fromthe… more
Abstract:We propose to develop a new type of optical filter with these properties that is constructed using thin, alternating layers of dispersive and non-dispersive media. Like the classic interference filter, this device operates through the selective constructive and destructive interference of the… more
Abstract:Intelligible Voice communication in aviation systems is critical for efficient and safe performance. This work will develop a noise cancelling fiber optic microphone that can be used in electrically and acoustic noisy environments. Two pressure fiber optic microphones (FOM), a lens FOM and a shutter… more
Abstract:In situ immunological and DNA probe-based histochemical detection methods have widespread,important biomedical applications in infectious and genetic disease diagnosis, neurobiology,developmental biology, pharmacology and other research. However, radioisotopic detection remains thepredominant method… more
Abstract:Helicobacter pylori is a gastrointestinal pathogen that causes, or is a major risk factor for thedevelopment of a spectrum of diseases including chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, and cancer of thestomach. Current therapies for these diseases are inadequate as they are plagued with high… more
Abstract:ORBITEC proposes to develop an innovative Electromechanical Vibratory Tactile Stimulation (EVTS) system that will provide intuitive tactile, force, and torque feedback. The need for this type of feedback is growing, as manipulators become more dextrous, and more complex tasks are to be carried out… 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.
