Venti proposes a new option that expands on a proven prototype sensor system [Intelipod®]to deploy a small-to-large constellation of mission tailored sensor units (Intelipods). These sensor units are small, light weight, with customized detection capabilities and form factor, rugged, scalable, and low cost/attritable. Intelipods as presently configured contain the following: radio, GPS receiver, ...

Triton Systems will develop a system utilizing head-mounted vibration transducers to cancel damaging vibrational energy in the skull which can cause hearing loss.  Skull vibration cancellation could possibly mitigate the 2 ways in which vibrational energy causes human hearing loss: Sounds transmitted through the air to the eardrum and inner ear Sound transmitted through the skull to the inner ea ...

The Air Force has a vital and urgent need to provide overmatched capabilities for mobility to meet real-time requirements and match mounting threats from near-peer adversaries like China and Russia. Powered exoskeletons for the lower limb are being explored for mobility augmentation, and the Dephy ExoBoot platform enhances the ability for Airmen that need to walk long distances or with heavy loads ...

Founded in 2020, Boston Geospatial (BG) brings near real-time natural threat intelligence to operators and decision makers using its sensor agnostic radar processing platform. The Air Force Civil Engineering Center (AFCEC) and intelligence squadrons currently do not have a comprehensive and effective solution to detect and measure geohazard threats to critical infrastructure. CONUS/OCONUS installa ...

The Voice-Directed Inspection and Reporting System (VDIRS) will use Cobalt’s Virtual Maintenance and Testing Assistant (VMTA) to enable maintenance technicians to use their voice to take notes, fill in forms, confirm the completion of each step in a system inspection workflow, and proceed to the next step in the overall process. Paired with an optional AR headset, the technician can take picture ...

Small-Unmanned Aerial Systems (sUAS) operated by enemy actors present an immediate threat to forward Air Force (AF) installments, potentially leading to flight interruptions, enemy gathering of real-time intelligence, and payload delivery of weapons. The AF needs proliferated and attritable systems to protect against this emerging threat. The technology development under this SBIR topic will immed ...

Triton Systems and our partners will demonstrate feasibility of an Advanced Low-Level Parachute (ALLP) system with superior low-opening performance, deployment flexibility, reliability at high exit speed, pilot weight range, and glide capability to allow insertion of Air Force Pararescue personnel (PJs) via higher-airspeed and lower-flying aircraft. Pararescue specialists rescue and medically trea ...

Non-compressible torso hemorrhage (NCTH) is a leading cause of potentially survivable death in United States (U.S.) warfighters and commonly occurs after traumatic injury. A study of 4,596 battlefield fatalities from Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom determined that hemorrhage accounted for 91% of potentially survivable fatalities occurring prior to arrival at a Medical Treatm ...

Critical to our nation’s space superiority is the tactical operator’s ability to receive and send all-domain data in a consolidated, timely, secure manner for national decision-makers to be able to confidently observe, orient, decide, and act on the data in real time. Currently, the disparate way data is being delivered is not keeping pace with the tactical timelines of the threats identified. ...

Foundation Alloy integrates advanced manufacturing and atomically designed alloys to enable next generation engineering. Leveraging patented materials design methodologies and contemporary 3D printing, Foundation Alloy is building an entirely modern metal part production platform to deliver higher performance, greener metal components backed by a resilient, flexible, and sustainable domestic suppl ...
