Additive Manufacturing Innovations LLC (AM-Innov) in collaboration with Clarkson University and Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) proposes a new optical imaging system to characterize microscopic deformation of materials. The system, named as a Mechanical Testing at Microscale system (MT@micro), uses a micro-tensile testing device to mechanically load the specimen uniaxially and an optical imaging p ...

Emergent Healthcare Solutions proposes to research the feasibility of a dynamic cloud-based incident Intelligence System called Emergent Cloud. Emergent Cloud is an application service providing firefighters and Emergency Medical Technicians access to an interactive incident roadmap and real-time workflow and record keeping. The general aim of the proposed project is to revolutionize the user expe ...

Scheduled grease sampling is one of the more reliable methods for detecting mechanical issues within machinery. Offline laboratory‐based analysis of the grease can indicate component failures, such as spalling via high concentrations of ferrous particulates. However, consistency, costs, and frequency of sampling are less than ideal. Manually collecting grease samples can put personnel in danger ...

We address a need of the neutron user community by creating a minimum viable prototype of the only high-throughput hydrostatic pressure small angle neutron scattering sample environment (HTHP-SANS-SE). Our HTHP-SANS-SE will greatly improve the ease of use and reliability of measurements under extreme environments, thereby increasing throughput on the beamline and expanding feasibility. Current HP- ...

In response to NOAA-OAR-OAR TPO-2019-2005899 topic 9.5.01 , Kitware proposes a compact data collection and processing payload that can be hosted from small unmanned aircraft systems to support autonomous beyond line of sight missions. This innovative payload will manage collections from onboard sensors with optimizations collection paradigms. It will produce curated, geo-registered data archives, ...

Acoustic based sensors are especially suited for small UAV detection in the Urban environment. The Leading reasons are (i) they do Nt emit any radiation, (ii) their low cost enables a dense deployment, and (iii) they are Nt affected by partial occluders, such as trees. However, the urban environment is also a Nisy one. Traffic, emergency vehicle, and other environmental Nise pollution can mask the ...

Multiple concurrent FMV feeds can provide useful context during special forces missions but the flood of data from disconnected viewpoints can dramatically increase cognitive load on SOF operators. Substantial network bandwidth is also consumed by streaming multiple concurrent video feeds with highly redundant content. Kitware proposes TeleSculptor Multiplex, an approach to combine multiple FMV fe ...

Develop an innovative tactical active anti-fogging goggle or spectacle in a smaller form factor than traditional goggles.
