Every soldier, Marine, airman, and sailor will be exposed to hazardous noise at some point in his or her career. One major consequence of noise exposure is tinnitus. Tinnitus can impede communication, reduce environmental and social awareness, and degrade combat performance and mission effectiveness. Tinnitus can also harm a service member’s quality of life and future employability with severe f ...

The objective of this Phase II SBIR proposal is to continue the design and qualification efforts for a single-axis accelerometer (NSN 6610-00-151-6684) and perform detailed design and qualification activities for a Torque Motor (NSN 6105-01-326-8652). During Phase II, Kaney will utilize in-house manufacturing and analysis capabilities to produce drawings and manufacturing/qualification plans for t ...

This proposal follows the DLA SBIR Phase 1 Contract SP4701-21-P-0075. It seeks resources to move to Phase 2 so that the lessons learned and data developed in Phase 1 will further expand on the solution, including the field demonstration for replacing the plastic packaging in food service with the biodegradable Cellulosic Bio-Polymer (CBP) packaging to address military needs. Phase 1 was a great le ...

The project focuses on supporting the US Navy’s fleet of critical assets containing components that are either no longer readily available or produced by the US Government molding shops at high cost. American Energy Technologies Co. (AETC) of Arlington Heights, Illinois, will re-design, modernize, and manufacture several of these parts in-house by reverse-engineering the legacy technology transf ...

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a significant health issue which affects service members and veterans during times of both peace and war. The high rate of TBI and blast-related concussion events resulting from current combat operations directly impacts the health and safety of individual service members and subsequently the level of unit readiness and troop retention. The impacts of TBI are felt w ...

Frostbite affects workers of all disciplines from recreational hikers, mountain climbers, snow cleanup crews, construction workers, electrical, oil, gas, and crew workers, police officers and firefighters, baggage handlers, and soldiers. While frostbite can occur at the nose, ears, cheeks, chin, and groin, the areas of greatest concern are the hands and feet due to peripheral vasoconstriction and ...

The primary objective of this Phase II proposal is to perform the tasks necessary to develop TDP’s via RE techniques and SAR packages to maintain these critical components to meet the needs of our Warfighters. The overall objective of this effort is to improve product availability for current and legacy weapons systems, provide competition for reduced lead times and costs, and address lifecycle ...

The focus of this SBIR project is to design, develop and deliver a manufacturable current transformer to replace the obsolete legacy transformer that is currently in use in the B-52. During the Phase I and Phase I Option periods of the project, Kaney successfully reverse-engineered the legacy transformer and designed and built a demonstration replacement transformer to meet form, fit and function ...

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and the United States Air Force (USAF) are interested in a new design that overcomes obsolescence and repair issues associated with Auxiliary Power Supply (APS) units used in aerospace hydraulic systems. The need for alternative suppliers for aftermarket and obsolete components is critical to maintaining mission readiness and capability for several legacy weapons ...
