In this project, the team will develop a prototype of GoWrite, a platform designed for students with moderate to severe disabilities to guide instruction in writing. The cross-curricular intervention will have four modes including instruction, writing about academic content, journaling, and social media. At the end of Phase I, in a pilot study with 30 students (10 each in grade school, middle scho ...

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 ...

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 ...

Intelligent Multirotor Autonomous Glider for Relocatable Sensors (IMAGRS) is an innovative and highly capable micro Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) that enables unattended multi-spectral imaging and processing. IMAGRS integrates existing technologies into a micro, hybrid, transforming UAS which acts autonomously as a relocatable imaging sensor. The hybrid design of IMAGRS will enable the platform t ...

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 goal of this SBIR project is to demonstrate a general and scalable plug-and-play query-based solution to CAD-CAE and CAE-CAE interoperability problems. The approach is based on the following two observations: (1) the geometric, topological, and material information in any CAD model may be abstracted by a finite collection of queries -- formally defined and algorithmically implemented computabl ...

Not Available An innovative broadband slot spiral design for electrically small, low profile antennas with possible bandwidth of greater than 100:1 is proposed for HF/VHF/UHF and microwave band operation. The proposed antenna, which has great potential in maximizing angle-time-frequency diversity in multi-mode airborne applications, is based on a new already been demonstrated for operation from ...
