We propose a high-impact innovation for weather forecasting that integrates global ensemble weather forecasts with an AI-driven post-processing model of extreme weather indices. This innovation will provide the basis for skillful probabilistic forecasts of compound extreme weather events at extended lead times. Extreme weather/climate events of relevance to electric utilities focused on in Phase I ...

This Small Business Technology Transfer Phase II effort aims to develop a fully integrated, modular human surrogate, a software suite, and wireless data transmission.  The main goals of the Phase II project will be to increase the biofidelity, modularity, and manufacturability of the low-cost, sensor-integrated surrogate developed in Phase I.  In Phase II, the prototype that was developed in Pha ...

Corvid Technologies, LLC and Stevens Institute of Technology (Stevens) propose to utilize the results and lessons learned from the Phase I effort to develop and demonstrate a digital human body model capable of quantifying internal stresses and strains in the anatomy and joint loads due to externally applied forces from robotic manipulation. Similar to the approach in Phase I, the proposed approac ...

The COMBAT OXYGENATION DEVICE (COD) is a small, portable device that provides instant oxygenation and CO2 removal for warfighters with battle-compromised lungs on the battlefield, specifically from blast, chemical, and biological attacks, targeting the subsequent Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) which results. This device gently rejuvenates damaged lungs by spraying an oxygenated li ...

WISER Systems, Inc. is a small, woman-owned, disadvantaged business providing best-in-class real-time location systems (RTLS) for nearly any environment. WISER’s RTLS powers applications in aerospace, manufacturing, warehousing, yard management, and many other industries. Unlike GPS-based solutions, WISER’s Redundant Radio Localization and Tracking (RRLT) technology enables autonomous position ...

Anuma Aerospace seeks to develop the conceptual design for, and determine the technical and economic feasibility of, a Persistently-Elevated, Gas-free, Aerostatic Sensor Utility System (PEGASUS), which will work like a data buoy in the sky, continuously collecting and transmitting weather data from the marine atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) with the data being made available via application progr ...

In Phase I we developed a software capability for predicting the future positions of ocean drifters. We demonstrated the capability to predict drift for objects of varying shapes and train models based on historical observations. In Phase II we will leverage this software to perform high volume experimentation through which we will fully develop trained models using historical data for both passiv ...

The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common cause of respiratory failure in critically ill patients and is characterized by failure of oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) movement (gas exchange) across the alveolar-capillary membrane. Despite its high mortality rate of 30-50%, there are currently no definitive pharmacologic therapies for ARDS. Thus, there is a pressing requirement ...

Hemorrhagic shock is responsible for over 35% of prehospital traumatic deaths and over 40% of all deaths within the first 24 hours following injury. Multiple intervention strategies are necessary for prolonged prehospital management and improved casualty survivability including improved blood products, hemostatics, damage control resuscitation, as well as therapeutic interventions targeting coagul ...
