The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project will result from a focus on families with low socioeconomic status (SES), in whom adverse childhood experiences (ACE) and opioid use disorder (OUD) are common. Children of parents with OUD have higher incidences of ACE due to neglect, physical abuse, or domestic violence. ACE have life-long ad ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II project is to reduce injuries and costs due to overexertion and heat strain in firefighting through a real-time, biometric monitoring system and accompanying analysis tools. This system collects each firefighter's vital signs and sends the data to authorized commanders for real-time strategic decisio ...

The broader impact of this SBIR Phase II project will be achieved through further development of a novel physical music media platform with advanced instrumentation that is designed to promote deeper engagement in education for underrepresented youths. The platform will provide much needed educational support for youths' STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math) learning. The techno ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) project is to develop wearable sensors for monitoring environmental pollution triggers of a chronic respiratory disease, asthma, and empower patients to mitigate exacerbations. The initial target for commercialization is a wearable sensor array, integrated with a smart phone, to detect ozone and nitrogen diox ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this SBIR Phase I project is to reduce the time required to construct concrete bridges, improve job site safety relating to rebar installation, reduce costs related to bridge construction, and improve the overall health of ironworkers. Ironworkers face some of the highest rates soft tissue damage of the industrial occupations due the constant bending over ...

The broader impact/commercial of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR)Phase I project directly addresses the scope of Asthma in the United States. Respiratory specialists say they are in a quandary in their attempts to obtain definitive diagnoses of lung diseases because they lack a reliable pulmonary functions test device that can be used on all patients and have a high degree of accurac ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II project is the widespread adoption of an efficient and accessible technology to integrate patient photographs with radiology images to improve patient safety, increase healthcare efficiency, and reconnect radiologists with their patients. A successful commercialization outcome is this adoption leadin ...

This SBIR Phase II project intends to bring transparency and efficiency to the recruiting industry through a dynamic sourcing and analytics platform. Currently, it is exceedingly difficult to identify ideal candidates when recruiting for a position requiring exact criteria. The proposed platform will enable recruiters to rapidly identify optimal candidates and understand where these candidates are ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project relates to the historic challenges associated with composite manufacturing, including long cycle times, poor recyclability, labor-intensive manufacturing, and energy-intensive curing processes. Thermoplastic composites have the potential to reduce cycle time, reduce labor requirements, and imp ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is to enable economic development aid organizations to plan, implement, measure, and achieve better gender equality and social inclusion outcomes. Gender equality is recognized as an important factor in catalyzing development and lifting communities out of poverty. Empowered women contribute t ...
