AeroLite Sense: Atmospheric Aerosols and Particulates Observations from the Stratosphere
SBC: STRATOSOLUTIONS INC Topic: 91The long endurance “StratoSonde” lighter-than-air, uncrewed system combines a low-cost, 5day endurance StratoSonde supports up to 10 micro-dropsondes, which when released from the HAB, descend safely through the entire atmospheric column under a ribbon drogue while reporting observations directly back to the HAB. This project will assess the feasibility of integrating a disposable miniature ae ...

Stratospheric HAPS for enhancing societal resilience to extreme weather
SBC: STRATOSOLUTIONS INC Topic: 94There is a clear need to improve weather forecasting accuracy. The greatest contributions to forecast uncertainty is a lack of meteorological observations over remote areas and areas experiencing pronounced convective activity. StratoSolutions’ new high-altitude balloon (HAB) platform with mini-dropsonde is a disruptive new uncrewed meteorological observation data source able to collect data at ...

Stratospheric HAPS for enhancing societal resilience to extreme weather
SBC: STRATOSOLUTIONS INC Topic: 94Remote areas, particularly over the oceans, represent regions with the least observation coverage and contribute significantly to reducing the potential accuracy of Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models. In addition to space-based observations, dropsondes are possibly the only viable meteorological sensors for use over remote areas, where there is no cost-effective approach to permit regular r ...

Self-Contained Sub Centimeter Positioning Platform
SBC: TRUNAV LLC Topic: 812NThe goal of this project is to develop, prototype, and experimentally validate a new Differential Global Navigation Satellite System (DGNSS) capable of providing sub-centimeter positioning accuracy for quasi-static scientific, survey, and structural health monitoring application. The main feature of the proposed DGNSS solution is that it leverages publically available GNSS reference data from exis ...

Novel CO2 Gas Sensors for Autonomous Measurement of Ocean Carbon
SBC: DIOXIDE MATERIALS, INC. Topic: 82The objective of the proposed work is to determine whether Dioxide Materials' miniature C02 sensors have the potential to be adapted for autonomous measurement of ocean carbon. The existing sensors have many advantages for measurements of ocean carbon. They are much smaller and less costly than the existing sensors, work with much smaller gas samples, and use much less power. The sensors were d ...

Unipolar nBn HgCdTe on Silicon for High Performance, Low Cost NIR/SWIR Imagers
SBC: EPIR TECHNOLOGIES INC Topic: SOCOM12002We propose the development of a near infrared/shortwave infrared (NIR/SWIR) sensor based on mercury cadmium telluride (HgCdTe) in an n-type/barrier/n-type (nBn) architecture, designed for room-temperature operation in the 0.7 to 2.8µm NIR/SWIR spectral range. The sensor will compete as a low cost/high performance alternative to near infrared indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs)-based cameras by prov ...
