Oceanit proposes to scale-up processes for low cost obscurant materials. These processes include the development , fabrication, and testing of materials and coatings.

Reliance on fishmeal and fish oil is a significant constraint to aquaculture expansion in America, and globally. As U.S. marine fish farming expands, genetic improvements could increase economic performance and decrease ecological footprint. This is critically important to sustainability, scalability and profitability of the industry, and is key to attracting capital investment. Commercial opportu ...

Oceanit proposes to demonstrate a capability that will reason over multiple sources of communications available in a tactical environment and provide a commander both organizational and operational recommendations to meet mission objectives. We will develop an architectural approach that will enable the creation of a virtual staff element that can be employed at tactical echelons of Company and be ...

Degraded visual environment (DVI) presents a challenge for helicopter pilotage, particularly in close proximity to potential hazards such as vegetation, poles, wires, buildings, vehicles, personnel, equipment, nearby terrain, other aircraft, or ship superstructures. To safely negotiate these hazards, the aircrew must maintain a continuous awareness of the environment that can include both static a ...

Under the proposed effort, PSI will continue to develop a novel pmmW imaging technology developed under a prior Navy program to realize dense form factor arrays. This technology is based on an optical upconverted distributed aperture technology that can make large effective apertures in low SWaP form factors thereby maximizing achievable resolution. This sensor technology has already reached TRL 6 ...

Oceanit proposes to continue to improve the efficiency of the its existing Liquid Cooled Garment for us by personnel wearing chemical/biological protective clothing.

Oceanit proposes to develop innovative and efficient methods for broadening the interfacing capability for Position Location Information (PLI) systems to transceiver across multiple wireless systems to enhance PLI reliability.

Based on lessons learned through the past two decades of experience on the battlefield, the Army and Marine Corps need a data-driven, reliable way to analyze and interpret vehicle damage due to improvised explosive devices (IED). Such a tool will minimize guesswork on the front lines that can result in a significant safety risk to vehicle operators if damage is not identified and repaired. The Bla ...

Kyma Technologies, Inc., the leading domestic supplier of single crystal nitride semiconductor substrate materials, and MSU-Fraunhofer CCD, the leading domestic developer of electronic grade diamond materials, are teamed together on Army Research Laboratory SBIR A16-021 to develop the first domestic supply of large area electronic grade single crystal diamond wafers. Our approach to achieve large ...

The Switch Reluctance Machine (SRM) is known to be subject to inherent excessive vibration and acoustic noise. A closed-loop control technique was developed in the Phase I to eliminate torque harmonics produced by a generic SRM. To provide vibratory feedback, a piezoelectric-based sensor is incorporated into an SRM drive system to sense the torque harmonics in real time. The control system has bee ...
