This proposal addresses the Air Force need for personnel to operate independently in far-forward situations, by doubling the shelf-life of oxygen-sensitive medications, starting with epinephrine. Currently, the expiration date on drugs starts with the man

Applied Novel Devices (AND) is commercializing an innovative power MOSFET technology platform (called ANDFET) that brings in several unique GaN-like performance benefits to Si power devices at a fraction of the cost.  As part of this sequential proposal, we propose to increase the technical maturity level and manufacturing readiness level from TRL/MRL level 6 to level 8.  During this project, AN ...

We propose to integrate the leading sparse tensor algebra compiler, TACO, as the back-end for PyData/Sparse, the default sparse computing package in the Python ecosystem. The TACO compiler was developed by PI Amarasinghe's group, which pioneered the field of sparse computing compilation. The PyData/Sparse library is developed and maintained by Quansight LLC, a leader of the high-performance scient ...

The purpose of this proposal is to develop an implantable stress-molecule hydrogel sensor with high biocompatibility and biodegradability to minimize adverse effects on human tissues. The sensor will be designed to monitor stress levels in real-time, with

To date, cold and harsh weather environments have proven challenging for all UAS. Strong winds, low-feature terrain, and temperatures below freezing significantly impact endurance, survivability, and navigation of small platforms in winter environments.  

Special Tactics airmen within INDOPACOM utilizing tactical small, uncrewed aerial systems (sUAS) for operations in remote environments require the ability to effectively deploy multiple platforms controlled by a single operator. FLEETFORGE, being develope

HiddenLayer's Lightweight Deployable Adversarial Detection Platform is designed to provide advanced adversarial detection capabilities, operating entirely on edge devices such as smartphones in (near) real-time while remaining disconnected. 1. Elasticity:

Attollo Engineering proposes to address the need for a quick-draw, pouch-storable laser rangefinder for day and night urban use. This self-contained unit will weigh less than 18 ounces and have a total volume less than 64 cubic inches. The system will provide post-fire target assurance, showing the operator where the laser landed on the target. In Phase I Attollo will survey and evaluate all relev ...

Tactical Navy HTS magnet applications require efficient and compact cryocoolers to maintain cryogenic temperatures for the magnet while also accommodating the physical and environmental constraints within the HTS magnet system. Currently available commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) cryocoolers fall short on achieving the cryogenic cooling requirements that are needed for future tactical HTS magnets. ...

TransWave Photonics proposes to develop 1024 x 1024 light emitting diode (LED) arrays capable to produce >15% wall-plug efficiency based on successful demonstration of single Purcell LED devices developed in Phase I. We will optimize the LED band structure, pixel geometry, and fabrication steps of Purcell LEDs and implement them to achieve the target specifications. Then, 1024x1024 addressable Pur ...
