TO MEET THE KINETIC ENERGY ANTI-SATELLITE (KE ASAT) REQUIREMENTS FOR TIMELY AND RELIABLE KILL ASSESSMENT, AEROMET PROPOSES TO RECOMMEND INNOVATIVE TECHNIQUES IN REAL-TIME KILL ASSESSMENT SPECTROSCOPY. BECAUSE IT CAN BE CRITICALLY IMPORTANT TO ACCURATELY VERIFY SATELLITE ELIMINATION, A KILL ASSESSMENT SYSTEM MUST DISCERN BETWEEN VARIOUS HIT AND MISS PHENOMENA, INCLUDING THE USE OF POTENTIAL COUNTER ...

DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF SOLID-STATE DIRECTION-INDICATING APPARATUS, WITH TILT-IMMUNITY, THAT PROVIDES AN AUDIBLE OR TACTILE INTERFACE WITH THE USER. REDUCED SIZE TO ALLOW ENCAPSULATION IN A TYPICAL WALKING CANE. A DEVICE WILL BE DESIGNED THAT WILL PROVIDE A VISUALLY IMPAIRED PERSON WITH AN INDICATION OF HORIZONTAL DIRECTION, WITH RESPECT TO THE EARTH'S MAGNETIC FIELD. THE DEVICE WILLALSO SIGNAL ...

IDENTIFY CANDIDATE OPERATIONS IN LEAD STYPHNATE WASHING AND PROPORTIONING OPERATIONS TO WHICH ROBOTICS MAY BE APPLIED. OBJECTIVES INCLUDE REMOVAL OF PERSONNEL FROM HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS; IMPROVED SAFETY, AND DEVELOPMENT OF ROBOTICS SUITABLE FOR HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS. PROJECT WILL IDENTIFY AND RANK OPERATIONS; DEVELOP DESIGN CONCEPTS USING COMMERCIAL ROBOTS (OFF-THE-SHELF OR MODIFIED); EXAMINE SAFETY C ...

THE FLUID SITUATIONS ENCOUNTERED ON THE MODERN BATTLEFIELD WILL DICTATE THAT PROVIDERS OF SUPPORT BE RESPONSIVE, FLEXIBLE AND DEMONSTRATE INITIATIVE. THE REALITIES OF OUR AUSTERE LOGISTICS STRUCTURE REQUIRE THAT THEY BE HIGHLY SYNCHRONIZED TO ORDER TO MEET ESSENTIAL NEEDS WITH AVAILABLE RESOURCES. TO MEET THE SUPPORT CHALLENGES THE NEXT BATTLE WILL PRESENT, THE ARMY NEEDS AN AUTOMATED, KNOWLEDGE-B ...

NEW SAGE HAS UNDERTAKEN THE DEVELOPMENT OF A COMPUTERIZED ENVIRONMENT FOR TESTING AND REMEDIATING A VARIETY OF READINGDISABILITIES. IT IS CALLED DELVE. THE TEST IS BASED ON A MULTIDIMENSIONAL MODEL OF READING SKILL COMPONENTS. DELVE PRESENTS ITEMS TO TEST ALL READING SKILL AREAS, PRESENTS A VARIETY OF DIAGNOSTIC DATA, SUGGESTS APPROPRIATE REMEDIATION, AND THEN PROVIDES GAMES DESIGNED TO BEEF UP WE ...
