Voice phishing ("vishing") is an increasingly serious threat that cost victims over $46 billion in 2016. Attackers pose as trusted callers using impersonation, voice mimicry, speech synthesis, voice conversion, Caller ID spoofing, and other techniques. Once victims trust the caller, the perpetrator can engage in fraudulent and criminal activities leading to financial losses and security breaches. ...

To satisfy unmet military needs for multimode day/night digital image sensors, Voxtel is developing a high-dynamic-range visible-sensitive and near-infrared-sensitive single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) digital imager with efficient photon detection, hi...

This Phase II SBIR project will continue the development of an optical sorter that will be used to estimate drop sizes in sprays. The optical sorter will determine the size of drops in the 0.1 to 10 microns range. Drops in this size range are prevalent in the automobile industry, where the fuel injection pressures have increased tremendously over the past two decades. These newer injectors provide ...

Several geo-social inference concerns currently limit military stability and reconstruction operations: • Contact lists are not centrally coordinated, up to date, complete, or easily searchable • Vendor history is not maintained or combined with culture and safety information • Hand-off and coordination delays cause projects to span multiple troop cycles The proposed project answers the unde ...

We propose to develop key technologies required for a new class of minitaure robotic aircraft. Given successful development of these technologies, a new product based upon these technologies is readily developed.

Conflict Kinetics proposes to develop a Close Quarter Marksmanship next generation training platform, the Adaptive Panoramic TORA (TORA Apan 220), that will be fully automated and self diagnostic. It will guide soldiers through drills and trigger corrective drills that address deficiencies identified in their marksmanship skills. The Phase II effort will include the following objectives: modify ...

A back-illuminated planar InGaAs photodiode tested to have 95% quantum effiiency (QE) at 1550 nm, area greater than 1 mm2, low capacitance (125 MHz) will be improved. Although the existing Phase I device exhibited bulk material dark current generation better than commercially available devices, the sidewall-generated dark current was found to dominate the noise equiva ...
