DESCRIPTION (adapted from applicant's abstract): The long term objective of this Phase II project to develop and market an auto-docking securement system that can be used to secure a wheelchair in either public or private transport vehicle. The feasibility of the basic concept was demonstrated in the Phase I study. The specific aims of Phase I are: 1. to conduct side ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Biobehavioral research in a range of basic and translational disciplines (particularly cognitive neuroscience, neuropsychology and experimental psychology) increasingly involves the integration of multiple devices for the collection of data, such as EEG, fMRI, eye-tracking and physiological measurements (galvanic skin response, EKG). Current state-of-the-art ex ...

At the completion of the research and development effort a Li-foil multi-wire proportional counter (MWPC) neutron detector with more than 625-cm2 of active area will be included in a portable radiation detection system. The system is expected to outperform the standards set by the ANSI N42.53 standards, and gamma-ray rejection ratio (GRR) of 1.0x10-8 or better. A gamma-ray spectrometer for isotope ...

Phase II will utilize knowledge gained from phase I work to develop and execute a manufacturing process suitable for producing quantities of 3-D printed discrete circuits for radiation detection systems.  The goal is to support mobile radiation detection system requirements for high voltage, analog amplification, and MCA functionality to produce differential pulse height spectra in time sequence. ...

PROJECT SUMMARY Continuum Educational Technologies’ (Continuum) will work with the University of Kansas (KU) on the proposed I-RED program entitled Smart Tools to Accelerate Research Translation by Uplifting Participants for the Central IDeA State Region (STARTUP Central) program to stimulate technological innovation in the IDeA state regions by addressing the entrepreneurial educational needs o ...
