Sensors and Methods to Handle UAV
SBC: CHARLES RIVER ANALYTICS, INC. Topic: N/AUnmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) play an increasingly important role in many military scenarios. For the Navy to incorporate these vehicles into its critical missions, there has to be an efficient protocol to handle them on the decks of aircraft carriers.Current handling approaches and procedures have substantial limitations. For example, GPS-based taxiing via pre-set coordinates assumes that the a ...

Haptic Rendering of Virtual Stimuli for Fully Immersive Virtual Reality Training Systems
SBC: Anthrotronix, Inc. Topic: N/AThe lack of physical feedback in immersive virtual environments makes it difficult to provide an accurate simulation for training close-quarters battle (CQB) skills. Environments require a soldier to come into contact either directly or indirectly withmany different types of objects and with potential multiple body parts. Sometimes contact could be initiated by someone else. A simulator for CQB ...

Self Contained Actuation Systems
SBC: FOAM MATRIX, INC. Topic: N/AThe Landing Craft, Air Cushion (LCAC) Transport was developed as a high-speed, over-the-beach, fully amphibious landing craft. There are 82 LCAC's in service. In operation, the LCAC is subjected to a most severe environment. Consequently, they requiresignificant amounts of maintenance. For example, the fleet spends $4,264,000 annually to buy bearings and actuators, associated with the rudder c ...

Logistic Fuel Sulfur Removal System for Shipboard Fuel Cell Applications
SBC: ALTEX TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION Topic: N/AFuture shipboard operations can beneficially use fuel cells operating on logistic fuels. However, these fuels have a high level of sulfur that needs to be removed before they can be used as a feedstock for fuel cell systems. Altex, a small businessentity, and Pennsylvania State University (PSU), a research organization, have teamed up under this STTR program to develop the innovative Logistic Fu ...

Rapidly Throttleable Oxygen Generation Using Microwave Plasma Decomposition of Rod Fed Perchlorates
SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: N/AElimination of high pressure and cryogenic propellant storage and feed systems for undersea vehicle fuel cells is of interest to the Navy. CFDRC proposes the development of a rechargeable oxygen generator based on microwave plasma decomposition ofsolid-state lithium perchlorate. The generator will employ the atmospheric microwave plasma torch technology recently demonstrated by the Plasma Science ...

Haptic Rendering of Virtual Stimuli for Fully Immersive Virtual Reality Training Systems
SBC: Immersion Corporation Topic: N/AImmersion will investigate the value provided by haptics when used for virtual reality training. A specific virtual reality training task will be analyzed using a set of performance metrics. Force feedback will be provided to users using a variety ofdifferent haptic technologies, including both active and vibrotactile devices. Immersion will attempt to validate the performance metrics for each ...

Sensors and Methods to Handle UAV
SBC: Energid Technologies Corporation Topic: N/AAutonomous vehicles navigating the flight deck of an aircraft carrier must recognize which flight deck director is assigned to them and which signals that director intends for them. They must be able to generate and follow a notional path to an assignedspot based on the director's instructions. But relying on the director's signals alone is not enough. They must be constantly aware of their sur ...

Plasma-Based Oxygen Generator for Undersea Vehicle Fuel Cells
SBC: Science Research Laboratory, Inc Topic: N/AWe propose to develop and test an oxygen generator for undersea vehicle fuel. The proposed oxygen generator is based on the decomposition of lithium perchlorate or sodium chlorate in an RF barrier plasma torch discharge. The parameters of this dischargeare evaluated and found to be the most suitable of all the atmospheric pressure discharges for the current application. The gas temperature in such ...

OptForceT: New Human Resource Optimization Methods
SBC: OPTIMIZATION TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Topic: N/AThe emerging HR environment in the Navy presents a variety of challenging problems that can be addressed with the aid of operations research methodologies. Optimization modeling and solution techniques along with simulation hold particular promise asmodern approaches in this area. In this project we represent these challenges by presenting a significant human resource problem associated with DDX, ...

Innovative Hybrid Thermal Management Component for High Heat Flux Semiconductor Device Cooling
SBC: FOSTER-MILLER, INC. Topic: N/APassive thermal management solutions for high power electronics are inadequate for advanced US Navy systems. Active cooling systems can provide superior heat dissipation, but may present significant packaging challenges. Foster-Miller proposes a hybridthermal management concept that combines a passive element (high thermal conductivity, low thermal expansion face plate) and an active element (li ...
