Increasing system capabilities in terms of weapon systems, ISR payloads, GNC, etc., enabled by smaller and more capable electronics systems have led to a trend for overall size reduction in military aircraft. This has resulted in a reduction in the avail...

Current scene projection hardware is challenged to simultaneously meet the requirements for high peak temperature (> 2000K), high resolution (2Kx2K), response time < 4 ms, cryogenic and temporally uniform photon flux. MEMS, Resistor arrays, liquid cr...

ABSTRACT: Texas Research Institute Austin (TRI/Austin) teaming with the University of Florida Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department proposes to demonstrate a proof of concept for a micro air vehicle (MAV) that has a wing capable of autonomously morphing planform shape, camber, and angle-of-attack like a bird wing in response to a variety of flight conditions.The intent in the Phase I eff ...

ExoAnalytic Solutions, teamed with Texas A&M University, will develop Highly-mobile Autonomous Rapidly Relocatable Integrated Electro-optical Resources (HARRIER) with the goal being to design and demonstrate tracking of resident space objects (RSOs) in n...

A diagnostic is proposed for obtaining instantaneous three-dimensional volumetric distributions of density in a flow field at velocities ranging from subsonic to supersonic. Two variants of laser-based Rayleigh scattering will be investigated, each of wh...

Instantaneous volumetric fluid imaging is crucial to high-speed aerodynamic development and testing.Rapid volumetric measurement of fluid density enables accurate capture of dynamic flow phenomena for validation of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) si...

The Air Force has identified a need for the creation of a common streaming model for 3D data that is agnostic to the display technology. To address this need, Third Dimension Technologies (TDT) and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) propose to form a c...

A number of forward leaning, high-tech companies and universities are engaged in developing novel 3D displays.Since the emerging 3D display technologies have yet to create a common format for a 3D scene description, the burden is on the application dev...

There are many challenges in creating Air Force systems that are resilient against cyber threats. The cyber environment and its threats are highly dynamic, requiring practices and training to be dynamic as well. Cyber threats must be considered during th...

Knowledge Based Systems, Inc. (KBSI) proposes to design and develop Training Environment for Design of Resilient Systems (TENSILITY), a distributed interactive simulation-based training environment to enable systems designers, systems integrators, platfo...
