  2. An Electrochemical, Point-of-Care Detector for Reagent-free, In-situ Diagnostics of Pathogens

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: T102

    For long-term exploratory space travel, there will be a critical need for in-situ diagnosis and assessment of biological specimens from symptomatic astronauts, especially, disease pathogens (virus, bacterium, or fungus) and microbial contaminants. Hence, a real-time, non-culture-based microbial detection, identification and quantification system for on-flight monitoring and evaluation of pathogens ...

  10. Autonomous Multi-Robot Exploration using UWB

    SBC: TDC Acquisition Holdings, Inc.            Topic: T801

    Single multi-sensor teleoperated systems are not optimal for NASA exploratory missions because they limit the coverage area and scope of exploration and create a single point for mission failure. A better solution would use many robots cooperating to maximize exploration area and location accuracy while minimizing total system power and weight. The goal of this research is to investigate pulsed ...
