Many first responder organizations at various levels, including federal, state and local, as well as non-profit agencies each have different methods of identifying first responders on scene during an incident. The lack of an interoperable and standardized credentialing solution for first responders results in more challenges with communication and coordinated access to information on identificatio ...

Tiami LLC, a socially and economically disadvantaged small business located in a HUBZone, aims to develop a first-of-its-kind reduced-order modeling solution for data communications networks. We will develop a discrete-time linear time-invariant (LTI) state-space model for a general communications network. We will then apply projection methods such as proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) and bala ...

The goal of this Phase 1 SBIR is for Orbotic Systems to prove the feasibility of generating in-situ, global, ionospheric­thermospheric neutral density and wind ion data on a near real-time basis. Orbotic Systems is developing an instrument called WIND (Wind Ion Neutral Density). This proposal leverages Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 7 and 8 hardware and software as the basis to develop a new ge ...

"The impact of wildfires on air quality in the surrounding hundreds of miles has been discussed since the ‘70s. There have been a number of studies investigating the severity of the impact of wildfire smoke on the health of people in affected areas that have shown that hundreds of thousands of people die as a consequence of smoke-tainted air. Many studies focus on the impact of particulate matte ...

K2 Space is building high performance satellite platforms to leverage the capabilities of the next generation of heavy and super heavy space launch vehicles like SpaceX’s Starship.  The K2 Space platform utilizes proven technologies applied at an unprecedented scale to deliver far more payload mass, power, and propulsive capabilities than current spacecraft while reducing the cost by an order o ...

The complex nature of cyber incidents, combined with the sophistication of threat actors makes it nearly impossible for security teams to identify and fully understand all the details of a compromise before, during, or even after a breach. This is because security teams struggle to find and react to even a single incident amongst a sea of data across an entire infrastructure and an attackers seemi ...

This project is to develop next-generation efficient, secure, ultra-reliable, and low latency communication to support military operations in an unpredictable and contested environment. The solution is software-defined, platform and system agnostic. It can be commonly implemented on existing communication hardware or any future systems and platforms, from portable radio in the war zone to Satelli ...

Hardware innovation needs new and disruptive manufacturing processes that enable iteration in production and scale-up with low upfront costs. Machine tools that allow for cost-efficient, quick prototyping could represent a game-changer for industrial and technological progress. To this end, Vuecason, Inc. aims to revolutionize metal additive manufacturing (AM) through its first-of-its-kind metal 3 ...

Driven by a patented internally developed semiconductor chipset, Metawave has developed SPEKTRA, a breakthrough compact analog/digital radar system that has provided the automotive industry with next-generation high-precision and perception radar capabilities accurate out to 900 meters. SPEKTRA provides autonomous vehicles the range and precision necessary to operate in busy environments near huma ...

The largest ICB (Insulated Cooler for Bottles) maintains ice for 56 hours with an ambient outside air temp of 120F. It has the capacity to hold 26 water bottles or 11 MREs. Although the cooler was designed specifically to withstand IEDs, the inherent features would obviously be well received by air crews, maintainers, and various flight-line and medical personnel. The ICB is fireproof, blast proo ...
