In previous research and development, the developers created Core-LX, a platform that hosts videos and resources for high school students to learn about educational topics and to gain skills in career and technical education (CTE). In this project, the developers will create a prototype of a dashboard with specific career-oriented pathways that integrate local opportunities for internships, appren ...

To reach the end user, oil and gas production at the wellhead must be transmitted through the country and distributed to a wide range of customers. This logistical system requires natural gas gathering lines, processing facilities, product storage tanks and lots of other equipment. What results is air pollution caused by industry losses during these operations and the use of continuous or intermit ...

This proposed project will develop a highly modularized green rooftop system that is not only longlasting but also assemble-able/disassemble-able. At roofs' end-of-life, it can be disassembled and_x000D_ 100% recycled. At buildings' end-of-life, if the roof still has enough useable life, it can be disassembled and reused elsewhere. Major environmental benefits of this technology are 1) nothing fro ...

In preparation for the challenges of modern combat scenarios, the US Army is seeking a next-generation Human Type Target (HTT) product line to enhance training capabilities and include more realistic portrayals of threat scenarios. One area of particular interest is full body motion and collapse of the HTT when hit by a bullet. At the same time, this new system will need to withstand the live-fire ...

To reduce size, weight, power and cost (SWaP-c), military platforms have been evolving towards more integrated platforms that utilize all available space. For radiating systems, this will require exploring innovative design methods, materials and manufacturing approaches to realize cost-effective, customizable and conformal antennas. An attractive solution to this challenge is offered by additive ...

This project aims to develop a low-cost millimeter-wave (mmW) imaging system for ground vehicles, to operate in combination with a long-wave infrared (LWIR) camera. Such a system will mitigate the challenges of driving in degraded visual environments (DVE) including night time, fog, dust, or smoke by providing real-time image of the vehicle surrounding independent from the presence of naturally oc ...

The Nutronics, Inc. High-power Adaptive Directed Energy System (HADES) High Energy Laser (HEL) weapon system architecture has been proven at 25 kW class with efficiency of 35-40% and offers an innovative means to integrate the HEL with the Beam Control System (BCS). This in turn provides significant reductions in size, weight, and power consumption for the HEL weapon system. HADES naturally offers ...
