Non-contact, low-cost, stage and velocity sensors for monitoring urban streamflow
SBC: SUBSURFACE INSIGHTS LLC Topic: C5516bHalf of the world’s population lives in urban watersheds. In order to predict how these watersheds will behave under current and future weather dynamics (e.g. if , how and where flooding would occur due to intense rainfall), we need dense measurements of river stage and river velocity. Current instruments are too expensive to deploy in the quantities needed to provide these dense measurements. A ...

SBIR Phase I:A Wearable, Independent, Braille-Assistive Learning Device
SBC: BRAILLEWEAR Topic: HCThe broader/commercial impact of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is in creating an independent. assistive Braille learning device for blind people. The ability to read Braille is highly correlated with improved independence and quality of life. An estimated 70% of the blind are unemployed yet, of that subpopulation that is Braille literate, only 10% are unemployed. T ...

SBIR Phase I:Advanced multi-locus genome engineering to enable consolidated bioprocessing for the low-cost conversion of lignocellulose to hydrocarbon fuels and products
SBC: Mascoma Corporation Topic: BTThe broader impact of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is to test an innovative new approach to generating industrially valuable microorganisms. If successful, the new approach will be demonstrated by improving the ability of an engineered bacterium to convert components of biomass into fuel. The benefit of that research will be to help develop a technology that can c ...

Crack Prevention and Mitigation for New and In-Service Dry Storage Canisters
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: C5641bC56-41b-273026Welded stainless steel canisters at near-marine sites that contain spent nuclear fuel (SNF) have been found with salts on their outer surface that can produce an aggressive chemical environment. These conditions could lead to pitting, stress corrosion cracking (SCC), and potential release of radioactive materials. We propose to develop an innovative process and device for mitigating ...
