Award Data

There is a widespread need for beam steering all throughout the DoD. Both the Space Force and Air Force require advanced pointing for imaging and targeting, laser communications, directed energy, and energy transmission systems. Existing pointing systems often account for a significant allocation of Size, Weight, Power, and Cost (SWaP-C). Positional systems are one of the most resource intensive f ...

Impossible Objects (IO) has created a fundamentally new approach to additive manufacturing (AM) called Composite Based Additive Manufacturing (CBAM). CBAM is a superior 3D-printing process, because the material properties of the parts are better, the proc

3Degrees’ TraceAM software is a streamlined platform designed to effectively organize, analyze, and deploy critical technical data packages related to Additive Manufactured parts. It is a secure and customizable interface ideal for use in munitions develo

The proposed project intends to reduce the technical and financial risks associated with a disruptive battery technology so that DoD program executive officers and private investors are inclined to finance the commercialization of the technology. The proj

The United States Space Force (USSF) seeks versatile spacecraft that can perform an array of different types of defense-related missions, such as spacecraft imaging and inspection, rendezvous proximity and docking operations (RPO/RPOD), collision avoidanc

To aid in Air Force design and sustainment activities of additively manufactured components, QuesTek Innovations LLC, in collaboration with the University of Utah, will further develop and mature an accurate, efficient, and comprehensive fatigue life mode

The current Phase II project is expanding the CBAM material offerings to include uniaxial carbon-fiber substrates into the CBAM process.  It has already been shown that the strength and stiffness have improved by at least 250-300% (3.5-4x stronger and sti

With the Phase II STTR award, Rogue intends to develop a functional multi-purpose CubeSat dispenser system prototype that has been fully vetted and tested in relevant rideshare launch and space environments.   Rogue’s technology development roadmap is dri

Rogue Space Systems Corporation (Rogue) with its partner Dr. Jake Abbott and his team at the University of Utah (Utah) present a novel technology to magnetically detumble and translate resident space objects (RSO) without physical contact with the objects

Kaney is transitioning MAGTORQUE™ technology for platforms within the Air Force’s Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) program. Kaney’s disruptive MAGTORQUE™ technology provides enhanced actuator precision via the strategic integration of magnetic materials to achieve zero backlash actuation, however this zero-backlash actuation requires additional magnetic materials that impact overall ac ...
