Field Tool to Measure Defects in Chicken Breast via Microwave Dielectric Properties
SBC: COMPASS TECHNOLOGY GROUP, LLC Topic: 85In recent years the poultry industry has focused on detecting and eliminating meat quality disorderssuch as wood-breast white-striping and spaghetti-meat. The current industry method for detectionin a production environment is a manual technician-based scoring method that provides unknownaccuracy and limited speed. We propose a method to detect these meat quality disorders in chickenbreast fillets ...

Flow Control Gate to Increase Irrigation, Water Quality Treatment, and Detention Efficiency
SBC: 3 ROCKS ENGINEERING LLC Topic: 86The proposed device is a headgate that discharges water at a constant flow despite a variable headwater depth. This is possible due to a carefully designed adaptable float and track system. Through the funding of this grant the research could help greatly lower costs increase efficiency and decrease the size of water treatment systems irrigation systems and detention ponds. The innovation is alrea ...

N222-112 Low-profile High-Frequency Maritime Antenna
SBC: FIRST RF CORPORATION Topic: N222112The 1.5 MHz to 35 MHz HF band supports a variety of functions (including ionospheric characterization and over-the-horizon communications) with relatively little infrastructure. The large antenna sizes required present a significant challenge that has prevented the adaptation of HF systems on small platforms. Small, low free-board maritime craft have an extremely small footprint and require a mini ...
