High-fidelity representation of terrain morphology is a critical requirement for accurate modeling and simulation of infrared background scenes. The current state of the art in terrain representation for missile seeker systems and other military applications is based on digital elevation models, which are relatively coarse in resolution and have smooth contours that do not resolve the presence of ...

Team SubUAS, the STTR partnership between SubUAS LLC and Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, have developed the first drone to operate seamlessly between air, surface and water mediums. On this proposed effort, our multirotor unmanned aerial/underwater vehicle (MUA/UV) will be scaled to carry a payload of 10-30 pounds. Team SubUAS will build, test and develop simulated concept of operatio ...

The US Air Force is seeking to develop scalable, flexible, lower Size, Weight, Power, and Cost (SWaP-C) Global Positioning System (GPS) crosslink capability to allow future operational systems to forego significant dependence upon ground clock and ephemeris refresh, with concurrent support of real-time command and control and age of data. The development of this capability will improve the reliabi ...

With today's IRLED devices, >99.4% of input electrical power is converted into parasitic/waste heat. Moreover, as the local temperatures of the pixels increase due to the generated heat, IRLED optical efficiency is further reduced. Overall this severely limits the number and intensity of array pixels that can be simultaneously operated at high apparent temperatures. In Phase 2, we focus on develop ...

PROJECT SUMMARY ABSTRACT Hypertension or sustained systolic and diastolic blood pressure BP of and mm Hg or higher is among the most frequently encountered conditions in primary care in the U S The estimated prevalence is among all U S adults and increases with age to affect of seniors Hypertension is also the leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease global mortality ...

The objective will be to provide prototype label/tape solutions which are easy to deploy through the existing DLA supply chain. The Phase I will provide the feasibility of a anti-counterfeiting technology used as an industry best practice. We will prepare a test plan that demonstrates the technologies tamper and counterfeit detection capabilities. A comprehensive report will be submitted tha ...

BCI will develop a Man-portable Doppler Radar (MPDR) which can be deployed by dismount soldiers in forward operating areas with a minimal size, weight, and power (SWaP) footprint. This radar will provide adverse weather detection in short ranges (greater than 15km) to support forward-area Precision Airdrop (PAD), aviation operations including landing zones and weather hazard warnings. The MPDR sys ...

Current depot-level manufacturing systems are not responsive to changing requirements and flexible specifications. The serial arrangement of individual work cells results in a lengthy timeline to complete the critically-needed part; thus, critical assets

Effective analysis of countermeasure deployment requires simulation tools having good application scalability and an ability to model transport across multiple domains, spanning initial launch to far field settling under gravity.In Phase I, CDI demonstrated an initial version of such a multi-domain computational model, focusing on modeling of chaff launches from Army helicopters.The Phase I model ...

The objective will be to develop a low cost visual approach capable of identifying damage in a submersible non-pressure hull composite structure, so that when damage occurs, the damaged area will have a distinct visual color. The proposed concept will enable visualization of damage present in fiber-reinforced polymer composite materials without any need of sophisticated instruments. The Phase I pr ...
