During this program, multifunctional (smart) piping system technology will be developed for used on the Airborne Laser (ABL). This system, which was demonstrated in phase I, has a multifunctional design with integrated containment and leak detection functionality. The smart piping system design uses lightweight materials in conjunction with integrated sensors to achieve an advanced lightweight pi ...

This Phase II SBIR proposal presents a new platform for development, validation, and deployment of health and status assessment and decision support applications. At the core of this platform is MSI’s Collaborative Bayesian Application Engineering Environment (CBAEE) for developing models supporting signature recognition, condition assessment, and decision support. This Collaborative Engineering ...

THE DEVICE DESCRIBED IN THIS PHASE I PROPOSAL INCORPORATES A NOVEL TECHNIQUE FOR USING RF AS AN ENHANCEMENT TO FACILITY SECURITY SYSTEMS. RF HAS OFTEN BEEN INVESTIGATED AS A METHOD FOR PROVIDING A NON-LETHAL DETERRENT TO INTRUSION INTO SECURED FACILITIES SUCH AS STORAGE FACILITIES FOR NUCLEAR WEAPONS. THE PRIMARY PROBLEM ASSOCIATED WITH THE SYSTEMS THAT HAVE BEEN STUDIED HAS BEEN THE ABILITY TO CO ...

THIS PROJECT ADDRESSES SYSTEMS TO REDUCE NOISE AND VIBRATIONS EMANATING FROM AUXILIAIY POWER UNITS (APUS) WHICH ARE BEING INITEGRATED INTO ARMY VEHICLES AND SHELTERS. EXCESSIVE NOISE AND VIBRATIONS ARE HARMFUL TO AND HINDER THE EFFECTIVENESS OF OPERATORS AND OCCUPANTS. IN MILITARY EQUIPMENT, IT IS ALSO BENEFICIAL TO AVOID EMANATIONS THAT MIGHT BE USED AS DETECTION SIGNATURES . THIS EXPLORATORY DEV ...

Applied Radar Inc. proposes the development of active MMIC-based circulators in order to achieve high isolation between transmit and receive paths for simultaneous transmit and receive (STAR) phased-array radar system architectures. This technology will enable increased persistence in intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) systems and allow multiple simultaneous radar modes including ...

During a Phase I STTR Contract #F49620-03-C-0064 provided by AFOSR, Nukove Scientific Consulting addressed “Adaptive Laser Beam Control Using Return Photon Statistics” with considerable success. The Nukove/NMSU Team demonstrated the feasibility of combining Nukove’s statistical approaches to pointing estimation and target identification with a laboratory testbed at NMSU. This proposed Phase ...

This SBIR Phase I project will develop a health and motion monitoring sensor and analysis system to support the return of military personnel with prosthetic devices to active duty. DoD is allowing increasing numbers of Soldiers with prosthetics to return to active duty if they are performance capable, minimizing the loss of their valuable core expertise to the services. There are significant cha ...

The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), Military Satellite Communication (MILSATCOM), and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) have a current and future need for advanced commercially available inherently radhard primitive cell libraries to support new designs for satellites and other spacecraft. American Semiconductor Inc. proposes the use of double gated Flexfet technology for ...

THE PROPOSED RESEARCH IS TO INTEGRATE A NUMBER OF ARMOR DESIGN AND EVALUATION MODELS INTO A MODERN COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT HOSTED BY A DEDICATED WORKSTATION. THE EVENTUAL PRODUCT WILL UTILIZE A GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE, INTERACTIVE GRAPHICS, NETWORKING, AND SO FORTH, TO PROVIDE A MORE PRODUCTIVE COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT FOR THE ARMOR DESIGNER AND ANALYST. THE PHASE I GOALS ARE TO DEVELOP A HARDWARE/SOF ...
