Power Generation and Storage for Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAV)
SBC: ADA TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Topic: OSD09EP2Micro Air Vehicles (MAV) have emerged as a critical need for the U.S. Air Force. MAVs are envisioned to conduct a variety of indoor and outdoor reconnaissance missions and must be highly mobile and man-portable. Furthermore, many of the envisioned missions for MAVs require significant endurance. Unfortunately, current state-of-the-art lithium-ion batteries are not capable of providing sufficient e ...

IMAGINE: Imagery Management through Agile, Geo-Interactive, Natural Embodiment
SBC: APTIMA INC Topic: NGA11002Overhead imagery analysts employ computer-based software as Electronic Light Tables (ELTs), to perform detailed analysis of aerial images in search of elements of interest. Conventional display design for ELT software requires analysts to take their eyes away from the image they are analyzing to perform routine functions. This interaction overhead typically leads to losses in visual momentum and i ...

Optical Instrumentation for MEMS Oscillatory Parallel-Plate Rheometer
SBC: AGILTRON, INC. Topic: 9060563RLeveraging Agiltron’s industrial leading developments for optical measurement of motion in MEMS devices, we propose to use electro-optical sensors for measuring the displacement and gap in the NIST micro-rheometer. No electrical connections are required to the moving parts. All electronics and optics are removed from the chip so that it is inexpensive and disposable. A fixed, simple micro-fluidi ...

Lithium-Ion (Li-ion) and Lithium-ion Polymer (Li-polymer) Battery Safety
SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC. Topic: OSD09EP1Physical Sciences, Inc. (PSI) has demonstrated that electroactive polymer coatings (EAP) may be applied to the surface of the cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries to protect against catastrophic cell failure. These EAP coatings form an electrochemical"switch"that can prevent catastrophic failure in lithium-ion batteries by reversibly changing from a conductor to an insulator on overdischarg ...

Novel 2-D Digital Imaging Detector for Thermal Neutrons
SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC. Topic: N/AThe use of thermal neutrons has been widespread over the past several decades in many investigations such as non-destructive testing (NDT), neutron radiography and macromolecular crystallography. For some applications such as crystallographic diffraction studies, neutrons are scattered over 4o in space and an ideal detector would be able to image the scattered radiation on a spherical surface. Cur ...

A Model-Based Index of Cognitive Fightability for Warrior Systems
SBC: APTIMA INC Topic: N/ACurrent methods to assess system effectiveness often require the development of prototype systems and costly evaluation studies. Several heuristic approaches exist to support technology selection and implementation services, however a scientifically-basedprocess is needed that will consider the functionality that new technology provides, the missions that these systems will be applied to, and the ...
