To address the Army need for development of designed-by-reliability zero-maintenance air filtration system for modernization of military air filtration systems for ground vehicles to increase the system service life and reduce operation and support costs, BuckyTech, LLC proposes to develop an Embedded Resonated Screen Air Filtration device, based on a new, highly efficient nano-fiber mesh with emb ...

Inflammation has been implicated in the etiology of many pain disorders and diseases including myalgia, arthralgia, tendonitis and dental and bone irritation. In the U.S., patients spend approximately USD $3 billion each year on over-the-counter drugs. NSAIDs possess anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic activities, and are therefore widely used to treat acute and chronic inflammatory dis ...

As a conductive material for EMI shielding, carbon nanotubes hold significant promise. Carbon nanotubes are conductive, nanometer-thin fibers that can be many microns in length. They are a mechanically robust material—100 times stronger than high-strength steel and six times lighter. Carbon nanotubes can stretch beyond 20% of their resting length without damaging their structure or conductivity. ...

Digital battle command and control systems such as Force XXI Battle Command Brigade and Below (FBCB2) and Movement Tracking System (MTS) are wildly successful but are being deployed to only the highest priority Army vehicles due primarily to cost and budget constraints. In partnership with Comtech Mobile Datacom Corporation and Magellan Navigation Incorporated, Primordial proposes Ground Guidance ...

Effective cultural training teaches an understanding of appropriate social interactions in context—to take offense when reasonable, to give deference where appropriate, etc. Systems that provide realistic rehearsals have a fundamental need for believability beyond accuracy in appearance, and have the cus-tomizability to alter scenarios so they reflect the needs of the student. We propose using a ...

The Army has identified a need for a Cross Platform Digital Rights Management (CP-DRM) system that provides a data owner the ability to control the flow of sensitive digital information even after it has been released. Architecture Technology Corporation (ATC) proposes Sandtrap that allows sensitive information to be packaged into a distributable self-contained package. Sensitive data is protect ...
