Warehouse injuries and accidents are occurring much too frequently and resulting in devastating consequences and implications for the involved facility. Although the recent emergence of low-cost and unobtrusive sensor technologies have flooded nearly every market to improve health and safety, the warehousing and manufacturing markets have remained largely unpenetrated. Aptima plans to fill this ga ...

Technology Solutions Experts, Inc. (TSE) is proposing to develop the Property Reuse and Disposition Tool, a mobile app that will significantly expedite and facilitate the way in which the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) catalogs excess property for its reuse.The DLA's current process of cataloging excess property is cumbersome and tedious--with the advent and proliferation of mobile technologies, t ...

With this Phase I funding, the project team will develop and test a prototype of D-TECH, a system to determine students' level of academic engagement while completing computer-based learning activities and assessments. The prototype will integrate within existing third party computer-based programs (e.g., online courseware, educational games, simulations, intelligent tutors) and will consist of a ...

Team Rose-A-Lee has extensive experience with the RE process, development of TDPs, fabrication, and manufacturing to enable the proposed solution. The overall goal of the Phase I effort is to demonstrate (to DLA Value Engineering (VE) and Engineering Support Activity (ESA)) through Rose-A-Lees proven process that the proposed SAR package is ready for Phase II development. Phase I will deliver a pr ...

n prior work, the researchers built a series of virtual physics labs to assess middle school student’s science inquiry practice and understanding. In this project, the team is developing and testing a prototype of Inq-Blotter, a web-based platform intended to provide teachers immediate feedback on student progress while using the labs. The prototype dashboard will alert teachers when students ar ...

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) is interested in advanced technology demonstrations for affordability and advanced industrial practices to demonstrate the combination of improved part manufacturing and improved business cases. DLA is seeking to drastically lower unit cost of discrete parts through manufacturing innovations with commercial applicability. This innovation will greatly improve exis ...

Real-time Automated Ply Inspection (RTAPI) is a layup inspection system that determines if the layup produced by an Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) machine meets drawing requirements. This is performed in real-time, while the machine is laying composite tapes onto the mold at very high speed, providing several benefits. As a fully automated system it eliminates very slow and tedious manual inspect ...

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) seeks to drastically reduce costs and increase availability of cast parts.To this end, Triton Systems proposes to develop an innovative method for the fabrication of low cost manufacturing of ceramic cores and molds.Traditionally, ceramic molds and cores are expensive and have long lead times, but Triton proposes to develop the materials and methods to use Cerami ...
