SaraniaSat will adapt its commercially successful, high spatial and temporal resolution, hyperspectral imaging, remote-sensing solution to create HYFOR for use by the USAF 557th Weather Wing (557WW) and its customer, the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). Currently, the 557 WWs Land Information System ingests remote-sensing data provided by several satellites including MODIS and LandSat. However, ...

Koolock is a small-satellite based remote sensing company planning to address U.S. Air Force needs with its proposed commercial Infrared satellite constellation that will incorporate next-generation satellite-based IR sensing technology.Koolock proposes to provide a wide range of uses for the U.S. Government.Koolocks main focus is to propose a solution for the top two U.S. Government identified we ...

A comprehensive weather intelligence system capable of producing global environmental intelligence with real-time, high-resolution information and predictions requires the synthesis of observational surface data, radar data, aircraft, space and ground-based remotely sensed data, and the most advanced numerical weather prediction (NWP) technologies. Recent advances in real-time operational global o ...

Emerging technologies in high pulse, rate fiber lasers operating the SWIR spectral band have enabled the design and build of a new class of long range, wide area surveillance LIDAR providing high resolution 3D imagery over large areas.This technology can be harnessed to detect, accurately track, and classify sUAS as ranges that will enable a spectrum of means for timely disablement. The proposed w ...

The Air Force desires technologies demonstrating value and commercial success in non-defense applications which will solve current Air Force problems.Gears are central functioning parts to most mechanical systems such as engine transmissions.Fuel consumption and maintenance costs are significantly increased due to efficiency losses resulting from friction and wear of gears. The development of chem ...

As modern command and control tools provide access to multiple information streams, one of the next objectives is to augment tools with new capabilities that assist operators with timely synthesis of any information relevant to the decisions at hand, while minimizing the burden of distraction from excess information.We propose to build the Air and Space Operations Center Assistant (AOC-ASSIST), wh ...

There has been little attention to the mission-critical defense applications of high-performance, high-reliability photonic integrated circuits (PICs)an enabling disruptive technology that is making significant commercial progress. The PIC platform promises integration of many optical components in a small footprint system-in-a-package (SiP)analogous to semiconductor Integrated Circuits (ICs) and ...

Augmented reality head mounted displays (HMDs) can provide meaningful increases in situational awareness, which can have a significant impact on safety and effectiveness for USAF personnel.Existing military HMDs/HUDs are extremely expensive and mostly are deployed in tactical aircraft. Commercial Augmented Reality (AR) displays are neither robust enough for aircraft use nor are they designed to be ...

This Phase I project investigates and develops technologies, algorithms, and software applications that allow for more robust intelligence analysis and mining for greater situational awareness. Analysis, Discovery, and Mining of Unstructured and Multilingual Information and Intelligence (ADAM) will allow for the efficient processing and mining of two of the greatest challenges facing intelligence ...

MATECHs SiNC-1400X structural ceramic fiber product is composed of silicon nitride carbide. It is a high temperature capable ceramic fiber designed for ceramic matric composites (CMCs) with use temperatures of up to 1300C. Unlike conventional silicon carbide (SiC) ceramic fibers and SiC-matrix CMCs, SiNC-1400X fibers (and SiNC/SiNC CMCs) have unusually low and tailorable dielectric properties maki ...
