To address the Air Forces need for a form-fit-function replacement Video Display Terminal(VDT), Physical Optics Corporation (POC) proposes to logically extend the achievements accomplished in the Revolutionary Avionics Display Phase II Enhancement (RAD-IIE) contract by executing the MC-130J Video Display Terminal (VDT) Follow-On Phase II (VDT-II) effort. During the VDT II effort, POC will build on ...

The Arnold Engineering Development Complex (AEDC) uses water-cooled probes housing remote-head cameras to evaluate and monitor turbine engines. These cameras have traditionally been based on CCD (charge-coupled device) sensors outputting analog NTSC video signals. However, such cameras have numerous shortcomings including the introduction of noise over associated cabling, interlaced output format ...

To address the Air Forces need for a capability to test a line-replaceable unit or subsystem of ICBMs or air-delivered weapon systems in a benchtop test bed, Physical Optics Corporation (POC) proposes to advance the development of the Safeguarded Cyber Testing and Training Laboratory for Evaluation of System Security (SCyTTLES), which has been proven feasible in Phase I. This innovative cyber warf ...

Oceanit proposes to design and develop a plug-and-play cyber sand box laboratory with safeguards to allow testing of computer/electronic devices against cyber attacks.

Collaborative military engagements with integrated systems across multiple disparate platforms such as Manned/Unmanned Teaming (M/UM-T) require resilient communications to achieve desired effects against enemy threats. The potential benefit of M/UM-T systems can be fully realized if Command and Control, flight control, shared situational awareness, sensor/electronic warfare, targeting, weapon syst ...

Multispectral sensor systems incorporating sensor fusion technology are used for a variety of defense applications including missile seekers for next generation smart munitions.These systems often require multiple focal plane arrays (FPA), overly complex optics, significant off board sensor fusion technology, and are typically expensive.The Department of Defense (DoD) needs low SWaP-C technology t ...

In this Phase 2 SBIR Trex and Columbia propose to fabricate the SWIR optical comb concept that was developed in Phase 1 that is centered at 1550nm and has > 100 lines with 100 GHz FSR, 200+ uW/line, >45 dB side-mode suppression, and all lines are phased together. This is a hybrid device consisting of a reflective semiconductor optical amplifier (RSOA) that is coupled to a dual-ring Si3N4 (SiN) mic ...

Toyon Research Corp. and Hood Tech Corp. propose a combined hardware-software solution for image-based direct computation of target geo-coordinates using gimbal video and metadata, and an integrated laser range finder. The development is focused on small-gimbal systems suitable for use onboard small unmanned aerial systems (SUAS). The proposed Phase II development includes gimbal hardware modifica ...

Pranalytica will develop and provide an integrated target marker that includes marking capabilities at NIR wavelengths and out-of-band MWIR wavelengths, making it backward compatible with existing earlier generation imagers as well as with the newer imagers that provide critical advantage to warfighters by operating at wavelengths where the adversary is not likely to have access to appropriate ima ...

The PNT adaptive antenna electronics (AE) was developed in response to the U.S. Pacific Command Rapid Innovation Funds (RIF) Broad Area Announcement (BAA), PACOM-13-BAA-RIF-0001. The objective of this contract was the development of an affordable, lightweight jamming resistant Global Positioning System (GPS) navigational unit within the size, weight, and power constraints of a group one micro unma ...
