Fuceltech proposes to develop a low cost lightweight Energy Storage and Power Generation (ESPG) system for commercial aircrafts in the ARPA-E REEACH program. Fuceltech will develop a single fuel cell (5kW to be developed in the program and potentially as high as 10kW from a single cell) and a novel stacking approach which can be used to deliver hundreds of kW or MWs of power from a single small an ...

Once the knowledge and skills for a specific task has been identified, the next step is to determine the most efficient method for an Airman to learn them. Classroom lectures, e-learning and videos take time and money to prepare. They also require an investment in time for Airmen to attend. However, this investment in time for preparation an attendance does not always translate to better learning. ...

User-Friendly and Cost-Effective solution for document processing using Software Bots that includes the following benefits: low technical barrier(low code), increased accuracy, meets compliance standards, 24/7 operations, improved employee morale, increased productivity and expedited decision-making for Air Force personnel. Converging the abilities of automation with innovative technologies that c ...

TEAM of Care wants to help close the gap between the traditional healthcare model to the new value-based approach by providing its innovative and proven technology to the Air Force Military Health System. TEAM of Care’s software uses a proprietary algorithm to generate, assign, and route interventions in the form of action to clinical and administrative staff. The application includes configurab ...

FabSoft receives documents from multiple sources, converts the documents to data, and distributes the resulting information through software. FabSoft developed a Desktop Automation Driver that automates data capture and distribution from recurrent user-level documents. The Desktop Automation Driver tool relies on a simple Machine Learning approach to “train” the system for specific use cases. ...

Carbon dioxide utilization can help reduce carbon emissions, but gaps remain in the value chain from initial capture to high-value products. Lectrolyst LLC will develop an electrochemical platform centered on selective two-step conversion of CO2 to acetic acid and ethylene, to fill this need. Preliminary life cycle assessment and techno-economic analyses indicate ~200 million metric tons of CO2 em ...

Restoration of coral reefs is dependent upon an ability to adhere young corals, grown in tanks, onto inorganic substrates within the seas. The epoxies in current use do not provide a viable path to restoration owing to poor adhesion underwater, lengthy mixing of components needed, clouds of toxic epoxy precursors released into the water, and extensive diver time needed to clean the underlying cora ...

A significant appeal of reduced-scale aircraft is the relatively low replacement cost; it is therefore counter-productive to install high-cost infrared imaging systems on these aircrafts. SunRay Scientific proposes to reduce the cost of IR imaging systems by eliminating a significant cost in camera fabrication—aligning and soldering vertically stacked circuits. Currently, circuits are inter ...

Equipment required for transmission and reflection measurements above 100 GHz is cost prohibitive, can possess undesirable harmonics, and is largely incompatible with vacuum equipment. Implementation of basic RF photonic technologies as an alternative to typical electronic instrumentation is not unheard of and was demonstrated circa 2011. We propose that with a current RF photonic approach we will ...

To meet the demands of the AF192-017 “W-band Receive Phased Array for SATCOM Uplinks”, the MaXentric / FIU team proposes the WARP (W-band Array Receiver from multiple Points), which provides a W-band phased array receiver with wafer-scale antenna and front-end components. The receiver covers multi-channel and multi-beam forming functionality. During Phase I, the team will show the capa ...
