Successful completion of the previous Phase I study and additional clinical trials has demonstrated that percutaneous peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) has the potential to provide non-opioid pain relief and improvements in function to injured Service members, Veterans, and civilians. Feedback from military advisors, clinicians, and patients have identified challenges that must be addressed to tr ...

CRG proposes to develop a wearable health monitoring system that leverages multi-modal, distributive sensing through an array of miniature, ultra-low power sensors to realize high accuracy while mitigating bulk and discomfort.The proposed approach facil

Dynamic Avatars with Complete Articulated Anatomy (DACAA) is an innovative solution proposed and developed by the Innovision Team for USARIEM avatars repositioning and movement. Based on the advancements and findings achieved in Phase I, we have refined and renovated DACAA concept and expanded Phase II work scope to pursue advanced goals essential to USARIEMs mission. The renovated concept of DACA ...

Shigella and non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) frequently cause gastrointestinal illnesses that lead to diarrhea and lost duty days in Service members with very limited access to advanced clinical diagnosis and care. These infections are easily communicable

Augmented reality (AR) offers the ability to enhance existing combat medic training by including perceptual cues and adaptive training elements to traditional simulation-based training using manikins. Unveil has developed a training system called the Macrocognitive AR Trainer (MART). MART is designed to foster the development of macrocognitive skills (e.g., sensemaking, assessment skills, mental m ...

This Phase 2 SBIR program will result in a commercializable and clinically tested Prosthetic Smart Auto-Alignment Tool (ProSAT), which addresses the need to facilitate rapid, accurate, quantitative, and systematic diagnosis and adjustment of the physical alignment of a prosthesis. ProSAT is a novel approach to alignment challenges by creating a hybrid sensor and smart tool system that can adjust e ...

Blast induced Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is a major threat to the health of military personnel serving in modern theaters. As such, the biomechanical injury pathways of TBI are, and have been, the focus of many animal studies. However, differences in the experimental setups across laboratories make it difficult to draw definitive conclusions from the resulting data. A tool that can accurately es ...

This work advances the state-of-the-art in high-speed diagnostics for the characterization of fireballs, hot gases, and aerosols released by explosives detonation.The proposed advancement is the development of an integrated optical sensor suite, selected from technologies which are already in development in the portfolio of the proposers.During Phase I, the proposers demonstrated the combined LIBS ...

The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) recognizes the need for low-power high-bandwidth radiation-hard optical interconnects to process more data more quickly and to replace electronic data.Our companys core development in optical communications with semiconductor materials is a unique fit for DTRAs low-power consumption high-bandwidth radiation-hard intra-chip communication components for sat ...

Thereis increased interest in endovascular hemorrhagecontrol using aortic balloon occlusion to improve outcomes in preventable battlefield death from non-compressibletorso hemorrhage(NCTH). Our technology, the SABOT, is the nextgeneration in such catheters,which adds the ability of both selectivevascular bed perfusion, bypassinginjured beds, and partial perfusion. In phaseI thefeasibility and proo ...
