Recently it was discovered that a relaxor ferroelectric copolymer consisting of poly(vinylidene flouride - trifluoroethylene) (PVDF-TrFE) exhibits a dielectric constant >60, more than 20 times the values of existing polymer film capacitors. In this SBIRprogram, TRS Ceramis and its subsidiary Centre Capacitor will demonstrate the feasibility of using this materials for compact, high volumetric eff ...

In complex man-machine systems, increasing performance of computing and sensor technology often places proportionate new demands on system operators. For example, in Naval sonar systems, tremendous increases in sensor and signal processing capacity haveimposed increasingly difficult demands on sonar operators conducting search. Consequently, overall system effectiveness is reduced and varies wid ...

The System for Management and Allocation of Recurring Tasks (SMART) is proposed to facilitate allocation of team tasks in complex Navy systems. SMART offers a model-based framework for identifying the sequence of tasks which a Navy team performs alongwith specification of all relevant performance-influencing factors for the team members, tasks, and context. A variety of techniques for task schedu ...

As defined by the Joint Directors of Laboratories Data Fusion Subpanel, Level 2 d ...

The success or failure of military operations increasingly depends on situation awareness. Critical to situation awareness is the knowledge of the precise position and heading of weaponry and personnel. There is a need for navigational systemsindependent of external sources and signals that would provide information about the position or movement of weaponry and personnel. Elsicon proposes a fu ...
