This project addresses the need for increased opportunities for customized employment for individuals with cognitive disabilities by developing the Person-Centered Planning ToolKit. The Toolkit will enhance implementation of personcentered planning (PCP), often limited by lack of follow-through on action items and a lack of tools to match career preferences to specific customized employment opport ...

Per- and polyflouralkyl substances, otherwise known as PFAS, are a large group of chemicals including perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS). These chemicals have a large variety of uses globally. Remediation of PFAS has gained importance due to their environmental persistence and toxicity. Water treatment methods must combine multiple strategies to be effective, as PF ...

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 logisticalsystem requires natural gas gathering lines, processing facilities,product storage tanks and Jots of other equipment. What results is air pollution caused by industry losses during these operations and the use of continuous or intermitte ...

The goal this project is to create a motion artificial intelligence (AI) analysis software to monitor activities of daily living (ADL) for stroke survivors with disabilities. The project utilizes wearable smart devices and a supervised machine learning (ML) algorithm to monitor activities that are meaningful and useful for clinicians and healthcare providers. Objectives are: (1) create a working M ...

This project develops and tests a Bluetooth compliant tongue-based electronic controller (a.k.a. “Mouth Mouse”), designed to give people with upper limb disability control of peripheral devices including computers and communication systems, home automation, and powered wheelchairs, as well as many other Bluetooth compliant devices and new technologies to come in the future. The Mouth Mouse is ...

This project develops and evaluates an intelligent web-based application, Tools for Reading to Acquire Content Knowledge (TRACK) for middle and high school students with neurocognitive deficits such as individuals with learning disabilities, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, traumatic brain injury, or autism spectrum disorder. Applying a participatory action research approach, investigator ...

We propose to develop an implantable Athena device to enable translation of neuroscience research from the lab to real-world environments. Ripple's Athena will include multichannel stimulation and recording, far-field telemetry, intraoperative connectors, and an implantable battery. We will complete development of Athena is this Phase II SBIR with final pre-clinical qualification testing to suppor ...

Hemorrhage remains the number one cause of death on the battlefield and is a leading cause of preventable death in military and civilian trauma. Rapid identification of clinically significant blood loss and detection of ongoing blood loss are critical combat casualty care requirements. Objective BV determination is a promising diagnostic tool that could accurately direct resuscitation and triage d ...

Idaho Scientific presents a Risc-V based secure processor architecture that provides unique security properties complimentary to the seL4 microkernel. The work conducted under this Phase I SBIR effort will further the discipline of computer security by mitigating memory corruption vulnerabilities, enforcing strong processes separation, covering seL4's formal verification assumptions, and provide a ...

Cross-wind speed is a key factor in computing a ballistic solution, particularly at long ranges. Reading cross-wind is one of the most difficult jobs of a marksman. Current automated cross-wind sensors are too large and expensive for large scale deployments. This effort focuses on developing a passive-optical-imagery-based software application for computing the cross-wind speed. Being software bas ...
