Triton Systems has teamed with the University of Massachusetts Lowell, Fraunhofer Center for Sustainable Energy Systems, Guardian Industries, SBA Materials, Solvay Specialty Polymers, and Kuraray America to develop and demonstrate a high efficiency single pane window system that will encourage replacement of conventional single pane windows at a faster rate with significant energy savings. Tritonâ ...

TIAX has developed a technology that meets the EPA' s need for decontamination of biological material in railway and subway cars. It provides simultaneous encapsulation and killing of biological contaminants with the added capability for decontamination of chemical and radiological hazards. Current technologies are manpower intensive involving separate steps for site preparation; decontamination; ...

Back-up power equipment, such as engine-driven generator systems, undergo performance degradation over time that can prevent them from functioning properly in critical situations. Ensuring the reliability of back-up power systems during power outages not only allows for the continuation of normal operations, but also can mitigate potential threats to national security. Improved diagnostic and prog ...

We propose to prototype a scalable, cost-effective methodology and supporting technology for rapidly developing procedures to automatically measure value of delivered healthcare for a wide range of condition-specific cycles of care, starting in Phase 1 with analysis of low back pain. To maximize scalability, our approach takes full advantage of unique asset available to the military: comprehensive ...

Spatial perception in the cockpit remains paramount for safe and effective flight. Unfortunately, transitioning from aided to unaided flight has profound effects on pilots accuracy of spatial perception, increasing the cost of effective attention switching and reorientation to key environmental information, particularly an issue with limited visual cues in degraded conditions. Improved displays ar ...

Spatial disorientation is the inability of a pilot to accurately determine aircraft attitude. It is responsible for a significant amount of fatal accidents in aviation. The human body collects this information by the visual (eyes), vestibular (inner ear), and somatosensory (skin and muscle) system. However, during flight the only reliable information for the aircrafts attitude is provided visually ...
