D&D Products Inc. will design and develop an in-situ floating debris capture device. The device will be located at the edge of a stream, canal or similar waterbody. Floating booms will be attached to the device, and the waterway current will guide debris along the booms into the gathering head. The gathering head will direct debris into the hopper and feed it onto a conveying mechanism. The convey ...

As USSOCOM continues to assess the future operating environment, implementing innovative solutions that promote situational awareness (SA) is of increasing importance. While situational awareness can be tied to a variety of data-types impacting a mission, for the purposes of this effort, situational awareness tied to geospatial intelligence will be the focus. When a warfighter enters an operating ...

A cyber-physical trust anchor is an essential component of a secure additive manufacturing supply chain. Customer discussions show a strong need for low-cost trust anchors as well as high-security, more costly trust anchors. The concept underlying our trust anchor enables implementations that can be described as good, better, best. The two physical-digital components are first embedded digital cod ...

This SBIR Phase II project aims to further advance the progress made during phase I toward the development of a portable handheld detector for real-time onsite detection of sulfur dioxide (SO2). SO2 is an air pollutant, which can adversely affect respiratory and cardiovascular health in humans. Onsite monitoring of SO2 would enable real-time detection of chronic and acute exposure to this toxic ga ...

Radio Frequency (RF) Fingerprinting is an important capability for the warfighter to identify threats and protect against malicious attacks on the RF spectrum. Most RF Fingerprinting techniques work by identifying small variations in a transmitted signal that are introduced by hardware components (capacitors, inductors, etc) of the transmitter within the non-linear regions of operation. Neural Net ...

Additive manufacturing is steadily advancing towards fulfilling its promise of customized and on-demand production of functional parts. However, performance of as-manufactured parts can differ significantly from the as-designed parts because the as-manufactured geometry differs from the as-designed geometry and the as-manufactured material properties are unknown. Attempts to predict performance of ...

This SBIR Phase I project aims to develop an affordable handheld tester to meet the need for real-time, onsite detection of sulfur dioxide (SO2) in the air. The handheld tester integrates a novel micro-sized sensor chip with a portable digital meter for direct readout of testing results. The sensor chip is built upon a sensing platform with graphene-tin oxide nanoparticle hybrids as the sensing ma ...

Additive manufacturing is steadily advancing towards fulfilling its promise of customized and on-demand production of functional parts. However, performance of as-manufactured parts can differ significantly from the as-designed parts because the as-manufactured geometry differs from the as-designed geometry and the asmanufactured material properties are not known. Attempts to predict performance o ...

The proposed Phase I effort is to complete a feasibility review of all innovative technology options that can be implemented in Phase II in order to evaluate, reverse engineer, reengineer, design, draft, fabricate, machine, coat, assemble and test facsimiles of foreign like weapons described in the topic announcement. McNally's solution is based on our years of experience in reverse engineering s ...

HJ Science & Technology, Inc. proposes a portable microfluidic automation technology capable of rapid and real time detection and identification of microcystins and other toxins produced by freshwater cyanobacteria (cyanotoxins). During blooms, many cyanotoxins in freshwater are known to cause damage to liver or damage to nerve axons and synapses. Though not strictly regulated, the EPA recommends ...
