Modern, networked, cyber-physical systems pose a special challenge for  Cyber Vulnerability Assessment.  Communication protocols may be inherently vulnerable, may be implemented in an unsafe manner, or may be vulnerable to timing attacks, in which carefully-timed inputs can be used to disrupt system operations. Developed under AFRL's NOVA program, Adventium Labs’ VOLTA software automates the p ...

This SBIR project is directed toward the development of a hybrid photon detector consisting of a high-efficiency III-nitride based photocathode and a low-gain avalanche diode (LGAD) in an electron bombardment arrangement, which can be conveniently assembled under atmospheric pressures, before being sealed in a vacuum enclosure.  The  proposed Photo-Electron-Bombardment-Avalanche-Diode (PEBAD) wi ...

Innovative Design Labs (IDL) is answering the Army Applications Laboratory (AAL) SPARTN Program’s call to develop an anatomically correct female manikin with Mixed Reality (MR) capabilities. Significance: The funding opportunity references make note of lower survivability rates for female casualties in comparison to males: 35.9% vs 17% (Operation Enduring Freedom) and 14.5% vs 12% (Operation Ira ...

The Army, and the DoD in general, has a gender casualty survivability gap problem: female casualties have a significantly lower survival rate than male casualties.  Reasons for this gender gap include: training is done largely with male manikins and female abdominal and chest wounds are not identified or treated properly because of hesitancy in exposing these parts of the female body.  The Army ...

In this Phase II project, we will demonstrate a prototype in an operationally-relevant environment for Climatize®, a cloud-based software platform with the novel capability to determine and deliver user-specific thermal comfort information for weather-ready decision-making. People and organizations in a Weather-Ready Nation adapt to weather changes and environmental events with resilience. A chal ...

Most AI agent systems are extremely brittle: they use hand-crafted or laboriously-learned models that cannot handle situations that deviate widely from their expectations or training set. Real-world applications required more robust and resilient methods. In the original REPAIR Phase I and Phase II projects, we developed general metaheuristics for decentralized multi-agent systems that are capable ...

OBLONGATA proposes an in-depth analysis of data collected during MEDULLA’s 4 1-month long HI-SEAS missions. As such it is a continuation of the work performed under MEDULLA. The projects complement each other to form MEDULLA OBLONGATA. The Base Phase proposal describes all measures SIFT and collaborators collected during missions M1-M4 (M4 is ongoing), as well as our analytical approach, and pre ...
