Counterfeit electronic parts in the Department of Defense (DoD) supply chain undermine the operational readiness and performance of weapons systems, provide a competitive edge to adversaries, and put American warfighters at risk. Only through the elimination of such counterfeit components can we assure confidence in our defense systems and in defense force readiness and lethality. The DoD establis ...

The introduction of substandard or counterfeit materials into the DoD supply chain can have extremely expensive, and potentially life threatening, consequences. Current techniques used to detect nonconforming materiel can be destructive (e.g., manual sectioning and inspection of a part), time consuming and expensive (e.g., micro-computed tomography, ultrasound), or provide only limited informatio ...

Multiple concurrent FMV feeds can provide useful context during special forces missions but the flood of data from disconnected viewpoints can dramatically increase cognitive load on SOF operators. Substantial network bandwidth is also consumed by streaming multiple concurrent video feeds with highly redundant content. Kitware proposes TeleSculptor Multiplex, an approach to combine multiple FMV fe ...

The project will develop a prototype of a formative assessment dashboard for teachers to view, monitor, and gain insight from students' digital work in mathematics to inform instruction. In Phase I, the team will develop a prototype of the formative assessment tool to support teachers' pedagogical approaches, identify areas for personalized intervention, and plan math discussions that address stud ...

This project will develop transmedia kits including videos, games, creation tools, character cards, and comic books to engage and support Kindergarten to grade five students in learning strategies to understand abstract mathematical topics, such as such as on misconceptions related to place value and multi-digit operations. The kits will be a supplemental resource for elementary teachers looking t ...

Teachley Connect will be a mobile tablet-based platform that uses games to give elementary schools rich formative assessment data and intervention support. Teachley Connect will permit students to continue playing exactly where they left off on any tablet. The platform will also connect apps into a single teacher dashboard, providing teachers detailed reports on student performance across games, w ...

Identifying the correct size of a full facepiece respirator for an individual requires a significant degree of skill. Furthermore, the fit assessment procedure is time consuming due to the series of tasks required to calculate the fit factor, a measure of the quality of fit. The Chemical and Biological Defense (CBD) program needs a quicker, less manually intensive, and reliable method to select th ...

The flow of equipment, repair parts, and other materiel to the Warfighter is critical to his or her success in the field. As a result of this critical need for materiel, DLA employees must contend with the difficult task of promoting and encouraging the reuse and disposition of excess property. With the advance of e-commerce sites and modern networks, searching a catalog for property has become a ...

This project will result in the creation of a Technical Data Package (TDP) and Source Approval Request (SAR) for an air duct hose (NSN 4720-00-061-8687). Successful completion will qualify CEPEDA Associates as an approved vendor for this item providing the Navy with an additional, reliable, competitive supplier. CEPEDA is a qualified Navy vendor for critical components including Level I hardware a ...

Phelps2020 proposes a low SWaP solution, ARRIS, to the improvement of the range and resolution of the MX-15 turret so they equal or exceed the capabilities of the MX-20 turret. We chose to keep the MX-15 turret as is and append to it a low SWaP accelerated processor that performs real-time FMV enhancement. A multi-layer software application addresses illumination, weather, and environmental limita ...
