This proposal addresses the problem of PCSS/laser trigger integration using a single monolithic laser diode array, thus simplifying the entire optical delivery network necessary for efficient operation of PCSSs. The proposal constitutes a logical continuation of Phase I effort where the main focus was on the detailed design of the PCSS/laser diode array (LDA) integrated architecture. In Phase II ...

To achieve the goals of this program improving spectral coverage and output power of monolithic QCL sources - we propose to develop in collaboration with MIT Lincoln Laboratory a broadly tunable high power source that is based on Eos proprietary QCL array technology. The current generation of Eos commercially available fully packaged QCLAs (The Matchbox) can be tuned over a wavelength range of u ...

Army leaders face a wide variety of emotionally charged situations. Success in dealing with these situations requires that Army leaders manage their emotions and those of others. Army leaders, however, receive relatively little training in this area. Ne

CellTech Power will continue the development of the Liquid Tin Anode Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (LTA-SOFC) operating directly on JP-8. In this program, a 125 Watt Direct JP-8 stack will be built using CellTech’s proven Gen 3.1 cell design. Modular panels of

The proposed Phase II effort will build upon the success of the Phase I work by improving the low temperature hydrogen release characteristics of nanostructured hydride materials, scaling up the synthetic method, constructing a compact hydride-based hydro

The goal of this program is to develop an ante-mortem diagnostic assay for transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) or prion disease. In Phase I, Infoscitex Corporation (IST) in collaboration with Colorado State University (CSU) set out to develop DN

During Phase 2 Hstar Technologies will prototype a robotic non-invasive 3D ultrasound injury assessment system that a) allows local autonomous neck/spine injury assessment using pattern recognition, b) provides capability of telepresence injury assessment

Trauma and severe hemorrhage remain the most frequent causes of death in the 1-44 year age group in both the civilian and military settings. Early recognition of shock and prompt institution of appropriate resuscitative measures are widely believed to imp

Physical Sciences Inc. and the Pennsylvania State University (Professor Stefan Thynell) propose a novel gas generator concept utilizing inert and safe ionic liquids as monopropellants and innovative techniques for their fast ignition and stable, sustained

In Phase I, Milcord LLC and Dartmouth College jointly researched and developed a software prototype that applies machine learning algorithms on contextual metadata, and entropy based sensors for the purpose of detecting data exfiltration on a computer network in real-time while accurately distinguishing between legitimate and anomalous behavior. In particular, we built empirical belief indicators ...
