To automatically compute accurate three-dimensional (3D) models from sequences of two-dimensional (2D) handheld images or video, Stellar Science proposes to develop, demonstrate, and evaluate the MOCHI (Models Computed from Handheld Imagery) system. While MOCHI will leverage open source and prior structure from motion (SFM) components developed for the Navy and Air Force to estimate an initial mod ...

COORDINATION OF THE SHARING OF SOURCE CODE IN MEDIUMETO LARGE-SCALE SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS POSES A DIFFICULT PROBLEM IN THE ABSENCE OF A SOURCE CODE LIBRARIAN SYSTEM. UNFORTUNATELY, SYSTEMS OF THIS TYPE, WHILE POWERFUL AND FLEXIBLE, GENERALLY REQUIRE A LEVEL OF EXPERTISE AND COMMITMENT NOT COMMONLY FOUND IN THE APPLICATIONS CODE DEVELOPER. IN AN ATTEMPT TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM, THIS PROPOSA ...

THIS PROPOSAL IS FOR A STUDY OF THE FEASIBILITY OF ADAPTIVE GRID ALGORITHMS FOR IMPLEMENTATION, REFINEMENT AND INCORPORATION INTO AN EXISTING TIME DEPENDENT THREE DIMENSIONAL NAVIER-STOKES COMPUTER MODEL, THE RAVEN CODE. THE STUDY WILL INVOLVE ASSESSMENT AND/OR EXTENSION OF EXISTING ADAPTIVE GRID TECHNIQUES TO DETERMINE THAT WHICH IS OPTIMAL AND EFFICIENT FOR THE PHASE II IMPLEMENTATION IN RAVEN, ...

The Central Atmospheric Monitoring System (CAMS) IIA used in U.S. Navy submarines has been a reliable and crucial component for the operational safety of submarine crew for 40 years. While the CAMS has been updated slightly, there are lingering unresolvable issues. The proposed sensor is based on two different methods that will be incorporated into a single instrument. The first uses an optical pa ...

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 ...

AURA Technologies proposes to continue the development of key components of the next generation tactical power grid. Our innovations allow for the grid to provide far more than reliable, stable power.

Corvid Technologies, LLC proposes the following technical approach to enhance the state-of-the-art in hard kill active protection system (APS) end-game modeling. End-game refers to the effects (both overpressure and fragmentation) APS countermeasures have on incoming threats. In order to develop and evaluate hard kill APS systems, those that defeat threats by physically damaging/degrading them to ...

AURA Technologies will be performing research into state-of-the-art additive manufacturing processes and designing a detailed blueprint for a system of systems that will be able to fabricate a 40mm munition onsite at a US Army forward operating base (FOB) or other tactical environment.

We propose to create a system that integrates simulation capabilities into design software that will allow MDA the ability to quickly vet new AM parts with 150x improvement in efficiency. This will allow more machine up time, less cost, and faster design iterations.
