This SBIR proposal is for development of a second generation Spacecraft Identification Device (a.k.a. sticker) for the Space Object Automated Reporting System (SOARS).SOARS combines space-object beacons, automated, low-cost, ground collecti...

United States Department of Defense personnel make direct contact with unfamiliar and potentially harmful plants, insects, arachnids, and reptiles (i.e. biothreats), impairing personnel readiness and mission effectiveness. These threats endanger personnel, disrupt operations and destabilize ecosystems around the world, often requiring expensive remediation. Currently the DoD employs specialized fi ...

Intelligence analysts, scientists, journalists, and other knowledge workers often find themselves confronted with large, diverse collections of archived data whose content is unknown or only vaguely described. These users require intuitive tools to explo...

This proposal aims to provide a general framework for cross-layer instrumentation of mobile applications for Android platforms. Our approach uses static and dynamic binary analysis to identify known functional code blocks and libraries in mobile applicat...

In this Phase I effort, PEMDAS Technologies and Innovations, in collaboration with Aerovel, Inc., proposes to assess the feasibility of developing a multi-mission, transdisciplinary manned aerial platform, capable of fulfilling NOAA’s requirement to survey, map and collect on our nation’s natural ecosystems. Combining Aerovel’s experience in UAS development with PEMDAS’ atmospheric sensor ...

Metron proposes a software framework for crowd-sourcing weather observations in a maritime environment leveraging personal mobile devices. Our proposed App, the Mariner’s Report App (MARApp), draws data from existing sensors in modern smartphones and tablets, as well as meteorological sensors normally found on small marine vessels. Our architecture is modular, extensible, and readily adaptable t ...

The mobile coastal monitor project is designed to research the state-of-the-art green power supplies and apply them as the propulsion and sensor power source for a highly efficient surface platform. The platform will be equipped with a modular sensor bay that is capable of housing a wide variety of atmospheric, air/sea interface, and sub-surface sensors suitable for a wide range of sensing operati ...

AnaVation is proposing the development of two systems designed to solve the challenge of government to outside and government to government spoofing respectively, both of which would be integrated into a Comprehensive Investigate Dashboard to provide organizations with an expansive view into the types and frequencies of call spoofing attempts. The first system would be an on top, out of band solu ...

Threats to mobile networks are pervasive and deep. Due to aging standards and an initial approach of minimum viable security significant risks persist. Spoofing, tampering, and denial of service are three primary vulnerabilities. Ultimately updating global standards to increase authentication and security is likely to be the terminal solution, however this is likely to take well over to a decade. ...

Currently all callerID displays on all cell phones are totally unauthenticated. This means that with the right software or hardware voice spammers can impersonate any corporation, individual or location. Ultimately the solution to this problem is to update the 3GPP standards and require this field to be validated and authenticated. Until that time NAND Technologies proposes to use a combination of ...
