Low-cost Mooring Location Beacon for Coastal Applications
SBC: TOYON RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: 825Subsurface mooring beacons are used to provide notifications and assist in locating moored assets that have surfaced and are free drifting. Their nominal design is driven by the requirements for offshore use where they need to survive extreme depths and remote deployment, most often using satellite constellations for communication and geo-location. Existing beacons serve their purpose well, but th ...

Bottom Feeder- A Highly Maneuverable Autonomous Underwater Vehicle
SBC: Tridentis Advanced Marine Vehicles LLC Topic: 822The Bottom Feeder project is designed to prove out the research done in Phase I using a prototype platform. The prototype will be a full size version of the platform designed during Phase I. The Phase I platform was designed to work in two operational configurations, a highly efficient mode and a highly maneuverable mode, with the ability to switch between them while submerged. The platform is equ ...

3D Printed Microscale Radiation Shielding
SBC: Space Micro Inc. Topic: MDA17012State-of-the-art COTS microelectronics are often found to be susceptible to radiation and systems are required to be redesigned with a new electronic piece-part or multiple kilogram metal shielding. These modifications increase weight, size, costs, and schedule to the program. Space Micro will design 3D printed radiation shields based on our modeling/simulation tools and then leverage existing com ...
