ReliaCoat Technologies, LLC a spin-off from Stony Brook University in partnership with Argonne Labs and Stony Brook University proposes a two pronged approach to address requirements of developing coating integrity monitoring tools for thermal sprayed amorphous corrosion and wear resistant coatings. For successful implementation of these coatings on ship-deck surfaces, it is critical ensure that c ...

The objective of proposed Phase II project is to develop multi-junction Graetzel cells using a cost effective, single layer metamaterial light harvesting template into which, up to four different sets of wavelength-selective ruthenium dye complexes are deposited. The light harvesting template performs three roles: (1) spectral band splitting of the incident solar spectrum into different cavities ...

In this project Optofluidics, Inc. proposes to develop a"CLIA waivable"sample collection method for the concentration and quantification of blood-borne biomarkers associated with late phase hemorrhagic shock and traumatic brain injury. The sample collection technology is based on (1) a finger prick based assay, (2) a multistage packed bead filtration system, and (3) a novel"nanofluidic collapse" ...

iFyber LLC proposal define a novel solution for the Point-of-Care diagnostics market. Traditional In-Vitro Diagnostic testing most often requires multiple steps (sample purification and analyte separation, analyte concentration/amplification, and detection) to achieve even qualitative levels of detection. iFyber proposes to develop and commercialize an entirely new paradigm in the POC diagnostic ...

The recent disclosure of sensitive and classified government documents through WikiLeaks demonstrates a new systemic threat, exfiltration and broad global broadcast of government confidential data and information. We propose to develop techniques and mechanisms for identifying likely malicious insiders within an organization by leveraging automatically generated misinformation and modern system an ...

Recently, solvers for the Satisfiability problem (SAT) have proved to be an enabling technology for diverse application areas including planning, cryptography, hardware verification, and software verification. However, solver performance, in terms of speed, maximum problem size, and efficiency, is a limiting factor to the more extensive application of the technology. We have developed novel proble ...

Timely gathering and sharing of intelligence information is vital to the efficient execution of military missions. Much of the information collected in the field is impossible to exploit quickly because it is in hardcopy form, and handwritten. A mobile application that is capable of capturing handwritten documents and quickly converting the document image to electronic text will fill a critical ne ...

In this project we will develop a framework for and demonstrate the feasibility of a neural signal processing system for informing cognitive models. Specifically, we will use single-trial analysis of EEG to inform a cognitive model of socio-cultural behavior. Our framework will include 1) a methodology for mapping characteristics of neural signals to cortical processes and cognitive modules, 2) a ...

Our successfully completed Phase I efforts demonstrated that exceedingly low numbers (five or less) of oocysts from human pathogenic strains of Cryptosporidium, including C. parvum and C. hominis can be detected in drinking water using the isothermic Nucleic Acid Sequence Based Amplification (NASBA) method combined with a rapid liposome nanovesicle-based biosensor technology. Additionally, t ...

In Phase I of this SBIR we have taken several significant steps in the development of a Cyber Assets in the Battlefield Network (CABN) system by identifying military and commercial use cases, developing and getting feedback on a variety of notional visual display mock-ups, and identifying commercial and military transition targets. Our first commercial market will be the wireless (WiFi) security a ...
