TSR-SHIELD: Time & Spatially Resolved Standoff Hyperspectral Imaging Explosives LIDAR Detector
SBC: ChemImage Sensor Systems Topic: A06T006Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) is being successfully transitioned to field applications in both close-contact (proximity) and standoff detection modes. LIBS is attractive since it can be used to detect a wide range of chemical, biological and explosive (CBE) hazardous materials. While LIBS is well suited to evaluation of complex hazards, including improvised explosive devices (IEDs) ...

SUGV-Integrated Non-Contact Deep UV Biochemical Agent Surface Detector (UVBASD)
SBC: PHOTON SYSTEMS, INC Topic: A06T029This proposal addresses the need for miniature, low power, reagentless, robot-mounted, instruments for real-time detection and classification of trace concentrations of biological and chemical agents on surfaces. Deep UV laser induced native fluorescence (UVLINF) is the most sensitive technique for detection and rough classification of trace amounts of biological and organic materials. Photon Sy ...

Software tools for optimization of hybrid fuel cell power supplies
SBC: Mesoscopic Devices LLC Topic: A06T014The military’s needs for soldier portable power are growing rapidly, and the only way to address this power need today is through batteries. Fuel cell power systems offer the potential of greatly reduced weight to support the soldier’s power needs, but fuel cell power systems today are only poorly optimized. To enable optimization of the fuel cell power systems for given user-specified power ...

Rapid Detection Nano-Sensors for Biological Warfare Agents in Buildings and HVAC Systems
SBC: EPIR TECHNOLOGIES INC Topic: A06T026Currently there is no real-time technology to detect airborne biological warfare agents (BWAs). Conventional technologies require 30 minutes to 1 hour. We propose to design, fabricate and test user-friendly, low-logistical-load biosensors capable of the real-time (~ 30 s. or less) detection and identification of airborne BWAs with high sensitivity and specificity for all classes of bioagents – ...

Passive Object Detection System
SBC: MIRMAR SENSORS, LLC Topic: A06T016Imaging with X-rays and gamma rays is a long established technique. It is possible with recent technological advances that standard transmission radiography may be extended to self-radiography, where the natural radioactivity of the object itself and the surrounding matrix is used as the source of X-rays. Self-radiography is much more complex than traditional radiography, chiefly because it depend ...

Modeling Software and Tools for Reliability Engineering of Micro/Nano-Device Systems and Components
SBC: NEXTGEN AERONAUTICS, INC. Topic: A06T002Simulation techniques play an important role in material and device design at the nanoscale. Among these techniques, molecular dynamics (MD) simulation has become a powerful tool for revealing complex physical phenomena. However, completely modeling nano-structured materials and nano-devices of tangible size using MD simulation is unrealistic, even when using today’s most powerful supercomputers ...

Low Power Retroreflectors for Optical Communications
SBC: SCIENTIFIC APPLICATIONS & RESEARCH ASSOCIATES, INC. Topic: A06T005Optical retro-reflectors have been used for communications for many years. The approach has many advantages, when one terminal has limited power, space, weight, and a low cost as requirements. The major limitation for “Retro-Comms” has been that the modulator consumes too much power at higher modulation rates. What we propose is to reduce the power, size, weight and cost of the Retro-Modula ...

Low-Cost Production of Engineered Proteins in Transgenic Plants
SBC: Edenspace Systems Corporation Topic: A06T015Plants provide an attractive platform for the production of recombinant proteins because they require significantly less capital investment than microbial fermentation systems and can be easily scaled up to produce additional protein. Edenspace proposes to develop a versatile plant expression system with tobacco to produce and purify proteins with therapeutic and industrial purposes. The gene ex ...

Implicit Level Set Based Software for Generating Geometrically and Topologically Accurate Urban Terrain Models Using Implicit Methods
SBC: Level Set Systems Topic: A06T011We propose a new method developed by our employees and collaborators for the digital representation of real world objects. This will result in an implicit surface urban terrain model that interpolates raw point cloud data. The method can handle complex topologies and geometries easily. Topology changes pose no difficulties. The key idea involves shrink wrapping an implicit surface around data poin ...

High-throughput Direct Structural Screening for Drug Lead Compounds
SBC: NATURAL SELECTION, INC. Topic: A06T032The Army has an obvious and immediate need for greater exploration of small molecules in the search for novel anti-malarial drugs. The innovative techniques offered in this proposal utilize methods of iterated automated fragment assembly coupled with an intelligent compound screening tool to facilitate scientific advancement. The resulting computational methods can increase the rate and exploratio ...
