Vigilant Cyber Systems, Inc. (VCS) has designed a Cyber Battle Damage Assessment Tool (CyBDAT) to quantify the probabilities associated with Computer Network Attack (CNA), Computer Network Exploitation (CNE) and Electronic Attack (EA) and allow for the direct comparison of cyber-attacks and kinetic attacks in mission planning. In Phase I VCS completed the high level design of CyBDAT, completed the ...

The Windlift Man Portable Wind Energy System (MPWES) will produce 6 kW of renewable energy while weighing only 440 lbs. The renewable energy density (W/lb.) will be approximately seven times greater than a state of the art solar system, as represented by the GREENS system which is currently deployed by the USMC. Significant optimizations are possible in future design spirals that will allow the sy ...

This SBIR Phase II project will create an industrial process for bonding ceramics to metals at the molecular level. Attempts thus far have not been successful in creating robust bonds due to incongruities of the materials being bonded. The objective of this project is to develop a sophisticated, computer controlled, automated bonding machine that will rapidly and safely impact-bond net-shaped cera ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II project has the potential to help enhance disease resistance in poultry and increase yields due to the delivery of only healthy, fully vaccinated chicks to farms. These healthier chicks will reduce the need for antibiotics in poultry, aiding to combat antimicrobial resistance. This technology has imm ...

AURA Technologies proposes to continue the development of key components of the next generation tactical power grid. Our innovations allow for the grid to provide far more than reliable, stable power.

Reducing the amount of carbon dioxide emissions from burning fossil fuels has been dentified as one of the most important and difficult problems facing our society. The post combustion CO2 capture from flue gas is particularly challenging due to the relatively low pressure (1 atm) and high temperature (~70 ºC) of flue gas, and its small CO2 concentration (

This project develops a technology solution to address the indoor navigation needs experienced by people with visual disabilities. This technology has several advantages over other wayfinding approaches such as GPS, in that it requires no infrastructure in indoor spaces nor does it require maps to be created prior to navigation. Thus, it is applicable to any unfamiliar indoor or outdoor space. The ...

PROJECT SUMMARYHistone methyltransferasesHMTsare a group of enzymes that represent a critical focal point in the linkage of cellular signals to the regulation of gene expressionThese proteins are not only strongly associated with numerous diseasese gcancersneurodegenerative diseasesand autoimmune disordersbut also have properties that make them excellent targets for drugsThusHMTs provide an except ...
