ORBIS proposes to Address SBIR DLA171-002 by developing efficient and effective processes to reverse engineer RPPOB Candidate Items. ORBIS has a wealth of experience in supporting DoD systems and components and is well suited to addressing the backlog of unsupported equipment .

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is to significantly reduce primary care physician shortages and improve quality of care for low income patients in the United States by developing a tool that analyzes clinical care team performance data at federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) to automatically deploy individually tailore ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project, if successful, will be the implementation of an effective point-of-care (POC) test that will not only impact the lives of patients, but can reduce the costs to hospitals, health insurances companies, and government agencies. According to the National Institutes of Health, cancer cost the U.S. ...

Polymer-electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel-cells are one of the most promising energy conversion technologies for renewable clean energy applications- A major challenge preventing the widespread use and commercialization of PEM fuel cells is achieving high performance with low-loadings of platinum group metal (PGM) catalysts- One of the factors driving performance limitations in the cell is the mass ...

This SBIR Phase I proposal to the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), requests funding for Form Fit and Function, LLC, a small disadvantaged, HUBZone Certified Business, to perform research in the development of an SAR package for NSN 3020-01-560-8493, Pulley, Groove.F3's proven experience in manufacturing and SAR package development, give F3 an advantage in development and decreases Government risk. ...

Tetramer Technologies, a specialty materials research company, aims to develop a more robust elastomer material for cushioned clamps used by the Navy. Cushioned clamps serve an important role in securing hydraulic, fuel, and electrical lines in Navy aircraft. The existing cushions have shown sporadic and unreliable breakdown in use, despite being rated to a rigorous MIL standard. Tetramer proposes ...

Current military dive masks are relatively bulky and do not function well with night vision equipment or weapons because of a large forward projection from the face. The additional size and complications of an integrated display for situational awareness and augmented reality exacerbates these problems. A versatile, compact and easy to stow goggle system with an integrated illuminated display that ...

The objective of this proposed effort is to develop a highly autonomous hull-grooming system that can be operated easily and cost-effectively with minimal supervision. This system will meet the rigorous standards of current manned-grooming operations using a rotating brush tool and will ensure complete coverage of the groomed area by providing on-hull positioning accuracy of 0.15m. We will develop ...

Increasingly stringent exhaust emissions and fuel economy legislation is forcing automotive engine designers to: 1) demand increased pressure ratios from turbocharger compressors to ensure complete fuel combustion, 2) use Exhaust Gas Recirculation for emission reduction, and 3) reduce engine displacement while maintaining or even increasing output power to reduce fuel consumption. These three chan ...

During this Phase II SBIR development program, Tetramer Technologies will develop highlymonodisperse 100-nm and sub-100-nm diameter nanoparticles for use as latex size standards. Highlymonodisperse nanoparticle latexes are needed for improved calibration of electron microscopes, lightscatteringparticle sizing instruments, atomic force microscopes, and particle counters/contamination monitors used ...
