A 40% shortfall in the global freshwater supply is expected by 2030, which makes using potable water forall household applications unsustainable. Using safe, non-potable alternative water sources for usesincluding toilet flushing, irrigation, and laundry can significantly reduce the stress on the potable watersupply.Our system supports the effort to conserve potable water by offering a product tha ...

Off target pesticide spray drift is an economically and environmentally significant problem. Off target drift can damage susceptible crops, orchards, and apiaries, induce herbicide resistant weed development, damage native pollinator habitats, create human-health related pesticide exposure hazards, and create social and legal strife as a result of adjudicating exposure incidents. SprayCast uses ma ...

Based on the successful completion of the Phase II effort that demonstrated state-of-the-art UVC LEDs with emission around 265 nm and output power of 25 mW (unpackaged device), a continuation of this effort is proposed. The objectives of the sequential Phase II effort will focus on (a) improving the developed UVC LEDs in terms of efficiency and output power, (b) demonstration of novel packaging sc ...

Long Range Precision Fire (LRPF) systems are an important class of advanced weapon systems which can engage targets at long ranges with high degrees of accuracy. The Army seeks novel material solutions such as Phase Change Materials (PCM)s for LRPF Platforms to improve thermal management and structural integrity while exposed to extreme. Corvid proposes utilizing a multi-length scale modeling and ...
