Fullmoon has the first chip-level sensors capable of identifying and quantifying molecules in the air. At the core of our technology are printed voltammetric sensors, which are operated using cyclic voltammetry, an electrochemical technique that probes for the redox potential, a unique signature of molecules. We have demonstrated this sensing principle for the detection of carbon monoxide and meth ...

In this Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) effort, Nikira Labs Inc. proposes to develop a compact Raman fiber optic probe with inline spectral filtering that improves fiber-coupled Raman measurements by filtering out Raman scattering from the excitation fiber and elastically scattered laser light from the collection fibers. The technology will enable compact fiber probes for Raman studies i ...

SaraniaSat will adapt its commercially successful, high spatial and temporal resolution, hyperspectral imaging, remote-sensing solution to create HYFOR for use by the USAF 557th Weather Wing (557WW) and its customer, the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). Currently, the 557 WWs Land Information System ingests remote-sensing data provided by several satellites including MODIS and LandSat. However, ...

Koolock is a small-satellite based remote sensing company planning to address U.S. Air Force needs with its proposed commercial Infrared satellite constellation that will incorporate next-generation satellite-based IR sensing technology.Koolock proposes to provide a wide range of uses for the U.S. Government.Koolocks main focus is to propose a solution for the top two U.S. Government identified we ...

Significance: The asymmetrical and rapidly evolving threats posed by autonomous systems must be countered by tools capable of reducing the asymmetry and evolving with, and ideally ahead of, the threats. Accurate forensic analysis integrated with effective intelligence gathering, analysis, and sharing can prevent attacks before they occur, addressing part of the asymmetry. Developing tools, and the ...

Emerging technologies in high pulse, rate fiber lasers operating the SWIR spectral band have enabled the design and build of a new class of long range, wide area surveillance LIDAR providing high resolution 3D imagery over large areas.This technology can be harnessed to detect, accurately track, and classify sUAS as ranges that will enable a spectrum of means for timely disablement. The proposed w ...

As modern command and control tools provide access to multiple information streams, one of the next objectives is to augment tools with new capabilities that assist operators with timely synthesis of any information relevant to the decisions at hand, while minimizing the burden of distraction from excess information.We propose to build the Air and Space Operations Center Assistant (AOC-ASSIST), wh ...

There has been little attention to the mission-critical defense applications of high-performance, high-reliability photonic integrated circuits (PICs)an enabling disruptive technology that is making significant commercial progress. The PIC platform promises integration of many optical components in a small footprint system-in-a-package (SiP)analogous to semiconductor Integrated Circuits (ICs) and ...

Augmented reality head mounted displays (HMDs) can provide meaningful increases in situational awareness, which can have a significant impact on safety and effectiveness for USAF personnel.Existing military HMDs/HUDs are extremely expensive and mostly are deployed in tactical aircraft. Commercial Augmented Reality (AR) displays are neither robust enough for aircraft use nor are they designed to be ...

This Phase I project investigates and develops technologies, algorithms, and software applications that allow for more robust intelligence analysis and mining for greater situational awareness. Analysis, Discovery, and Mining of Unstructured and Multilingual Information and Intelligence (ADAM) will allow for the efficient processing and mining of two of the greatest challenges facing intelligence ...
