Award Data

The modern information environment (IE) is growing more complex and dynamic. Information technology advances enable adversaries to access and influence audiences globally with increasingly sophisticated tools and at an unprecedented scale. To understand the threat landscape and to respond effectively, there is a need to automatically detect, track, and differentiate the evolution of information na ...

Charles River Analytics and PatchPlus Consulting are pleased to propose Cerulean FNX, a modular software platform that extends Charles River’s Cerulean transaction analysis framework to the financial intelligence domain. Cerulean FNX is centered around a modular and pluggable network analytics engine containing state/of/the/art financial graph and time series analytics, a modular coordinated vis ...

There is a critical need to develop a non-toxic, regenerative carbon dioxide (CO2) scrubber material with enhanced scrubbing capacities and safety for rebreather applications. The current state-of-the-art (SOA) scrubber material for rebreather is soda lime. Despite its overall robustness, soda-lime is highly toxic, has low CO2 capacity, and is non-regenerative. Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI) will de ...

Imperia Batteries proposes to develop an integrated separator-electrode-electrolyte composite architecture incorporating conductive electrolyte components in a polymer-ceramic composite separator that is directly applied to electrodes, simultaneously improving energy density and safety. This technology will improve safety by reducing the possibility for a cell to short-circuit via electrode misali ...

Unmanned aerial systems (UASs) present a growing threat in the US defense arena as both low-cost intelligence gathering and payload delivery capabilities for adversaries, posing security risks to both military and civilian assets. Detecting, tracking, and identifying UAS threats has been accomplished with conventional imaging and radar techniques, but each technology has limitations. Passive imagi ...

Precision-guided munitions have demonstrated dramatic effects with minimal collateral damage. New technology developed specifically to deny them accurate guidance information is now feasible, even for non-traditional adversaries. Further, digital communications are flooding the air with signals that interfere with communications many guidance methods rely on. Swarms of small, covert small Uncrewed ...

Scientific Systems Company Inc. (SSCI) is proposing to integrate our TRL-7 commercial software product, SSCI’s ImageNavTM system with the capabilities of the Elbit Systems of America (ESA) Multimode Seeker Concept along with additional sensor and algorithms improvements to provide an enhanced navigation capability in GPS-contested environments. The Phase I effort will include a feasibility study ...

Metamagnetics Inc. (MTMGX) proposes to conduct a TRL 3 feasibility study by designing and developing a miniature RHCP conformal patch antenna for the UHF band by utilizing magnetodielectric substrates. The proposed magnetodielectric substrate will enable compact conformal antenna designs having more than 50% size reduction over state-of-the-art dielectric only based antennas without sacrificing pe ...

SI2 Technologies, Inc. (SI2) proposes to develop a lightweight, battery powered, packable, foldable Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) Starlink terminal that will allow the United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) to connect to Starlink satellites providing at least 1Mbps data rates and will be easy to align via onboard GPS and compass with azimuth and elevation beam steering. SI ...

SI2 Technologies, Inc. (SI2) proposes the development of a software configurable, multi-band, open standard architecture, antenna distribution system that will allow USSOCOM to connect a series of RF receiver/transmitters that can be electronically assigned to any antenna connected to the system. SI2’s design will allow an operator to reconfigure an RF device then remotely connect the device to ...
