The broader/commercial impact of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based algorithms that generate content for word-meaning video games at an affordable cost. Word-meaning games support literacy, fluency, critical thinking, and cross-cultural understanding for players of all ages and backgrounds via adaptive vocabulary ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is to improve early detection and clinical management of bacteremia in patients suspected of bacterial sepsis. Over 250,000 patients die of sepsis each year in the U.S., which results in hospitalization costs exceeding $20 billion. A sepsis patient’s risk of death has been demonstrated to in ...

The broader impact /commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project addresses the lack of instant, remote medical tests for telehealth. This project could develop an accurate machine learning-based predictive model for strep throat. The business model delivers an artificial intelligence (AI)-based clinical decision support system as a Software as a Service su ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is the creation of the first all-in-one automated syphilis test available at the point-of-care. The number of syphilis cases in the United States have doubled in the past 5 years with a five-fold increase in congenital syphilis passed from a pregnant mother to the fetus. Annual infections now ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) project is to increase the security and privacy controls in today's financial (crypto or traditional) exchanges and auction platforms.Currently, such exchanges suffer from information leakage, meaning that third parties can see aspects of the bidding or auction processes and this ability allows them to gain a ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is found in its ability to provide a novel tool for clinicians for perioperative, post-surgical, and chronic pain management. This technology supports enhanced patient safety, international standards for enhanced recovery after surgery, reduced addiction potential and opioid sparing, reduced l ...

The broader impact of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is to advance the state-of-the-art for demand modeling for electric aircraft by developing a decision support tool that assesses the broad economic, environmental, and equity impacts that these new modes of transportation will have on society. The project is motivated by recent advancements in battery technologies ...

The broader/commercial impact of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is focused on developing software to enhance the performance of existing radar hardware on Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). Despite development of ADAS sensing technologies, there are, on average, 14,386 car accidents per day in the United States alone. The performance of these technologies st ...

The broader/commercial impact of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is to enhance Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) career awareness in minorities by engaging their interests and correlating those interests with real career aspirations. The research aligns with diversity, equity, and inclusion goals in STEM fields, exposing students in secondary sc ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) project is to address the need for recycling plastics that have surpassed their useful life. The ‘plastic’s revolution’ of the mid-twentieth century has greatly added value to society but has also created highly durable plastics that are used to make objects of limited life-expectancy. There are limited ...
