This proposal presents a non-invasive device to reduce, and control, intracranial pressure in the event of a traumatic brain injury (TBI). The device is compact, rugged, light, and easily transported by medics or civilian first responders in the field.

This Phase 1 SBIR program will result in a proof of concept the Prosthetic Smart Auto-Alignment Tool or ProSAT, which addresses the need to facilitate rapid, accurate, controllable adjustment of the physical alignment of the prosthesis. We are proposing a novel approach to the problem by creating a hybrid sensor and smart tool system that is nearly universally applicable to existing modular prosth ...

In prior projects, including a 2015 ED/IES SBIR award, the team developed two immersive multiplayer virtual game environments. In Eco and Colony, middle school students collaboratively apply scientific practices within the virtual worlds to address challenges, such as the availability of resources and energy and maintaining clean water. With this Phase I funding, the team is developing a prototype ...

In prior research and development, the project team developed LiveSchool, an online platform to track student behavior. With this Phase I funding, the team will develop and test a prototype of an administrator dashboard. The dashboard will generate reports on individual student behavior patterns across classes and on the prevalence of behavioral issues across different teachers. The dashboard will ...

"Deep Learning for standoff detection of Special Nuclear Material (DLeN) applies the same deep learning techniques that allow computers to beat human performance in image recognition and the game of Go to detecting Special Nuclear Material. Spectral analysis and signal processing can in some cases be augmented by the use of much larger neural nets that conduct much deeper analysis of features of t ...
