There is a widespread need for beam steering all throughout the DoD. Both the Space Force and Air Force require advanced pointing for imaging and targeting, laser communications, directed energy, and energy transmission systems. Existing pointing systems often account for a significant allocation of Size, Weight, Power, and Cost (SWaP-C). Positional systems are one of the most resource intensive f ...

In this proposed D2P2 project, we will rapidly develop a second generation XtruJog machine, XJ-2, to be capable of automatically hot joggling parts with the required joggles at the programmed locations. Self-funded proof-of-concept research has shown that

The Tesseract Smart Space Environment is a collaborative workspace designed to create immersive situational awareness and control over highly desperate information streams. This may include incoming feeds from IoT assets, cameras, sensors, enterprise soft

The United States Space Force (USSF) seeks versatile spacecraft that can perform an array of different types of defense-related missions, such as spacecraft imaging and inspection, rendezvous proximity and docking operations (RPO/RPOD), collision avoidanc

  This Phase I feasibility study is to develop a mechanically locking, high vibration resistant and reusable fastening solution for aircraft fuel connectors and hydraulic fittings (without the need for safety wire) for critical fluid conveyance system applications on the B-1 and B-2 aircraft and ground support equipment. The proposed technology with its positive locking mechanism will provide for ...

The United States Space Force (USSF) needs innovation in 3D scanning of Resident Space Objects (RSO) to effectively perform active management of orbital debris as well as On Orbit Servicing, Assembly, and Manufacturing (OSAM) and defense-related missions. OSAM missions will require that a “service satellite” operate near a “target satellite” or RSO. Novel sensor fusion modalities coupled ...

With the Phase II STTR award, Rogue intends to develop a functional multi-purpose CubeSat dispenser system prototype that has been fully vetted and tested in relevant rideshare launch and space environments.   Rogue’s technology development roadmap is dri

HyperBlox is a platform for secure, reliable, and private Cellular (LTE/5G) networking that integrates seamlessly with Enterprise IT infrastructure to greatly simplify and accelerate the adoption of business-critical IoT applications. The HyperBlox platform is significantly more flexible than the legacy systems, enabling a significant reduction to both operational and infrastructure costs. The sco ...

Skypad Tech (Skypad) is proposing to take our Commercial-off-the-Shelf (COTS) Mobile Optical System (M.O.S.) and modify it to enhance the US Air Force’s need for distributed operations. We have developed M.O.S. to take Heads Up Displays (HUDs) and the Augmented Reality (AR) associated with them to the next level. The increasing complexity and speed of operations required of our Airmen and Guar ...

DARcorporation proposes to expand the design of the Multi-Purpose Aerial Vehicle (M-PAV) by exploring the feasibility of hybrid-electric propulsion.  The M-PAV preliminary design and proof of concept flight testing of a SubScale Demonstrator (SSD) vehicle was completed as a part of the AF Explore 1.0 project sponsored by the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) Transformational Capabilities ...
