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 ...

The DSOM system realized in a Phase II effort will provide a modular, compact and reconfigurable system with the ability to provide unique and new information about the scene of interest (e.g. temporal and height information) when compared with traditional SAR sensors. When compared with other imaging technologies, DSOM has the important advantages of being operable through cloud cover and at nigh ...

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 ...

The trend over the last several years is fewer businesses supplying manufactured products. Thus, by supply and demand, the cost of military hardware has increased with less competition. Furthermore, amortized cost of the qualifying a new product becomes cost prohibited resulting in non-competitive bids compared to historical averages. DLAs Replenishment Parts Purchase or Borrow program supports re ...

CAMX Power is proposing field demonstration of a new, ultra-high sensitivity cell screening technology that would reduce a 14-28 day cell monitoring operation in present lithium-ion manufacturing practice to about ten minutes, with cost savings, safety and logistics benefits. EaglePicher and Inventus Power, key suppliers of batteries to the US Military, have each agreed to serve as our collaborat ...

The designers, manufacturers, and end users of metal components are finding limitations in the performance that can be achieved with conventional steel and super alloys. As a result, they are increasingly turning to titanium (Ti) alloys, which can provide a substantial increase in performance. However, for most applications the cost of Ti

The objective of this proposal is to develop a self calibrating, low cost adaptive precision grinding system which provides real time workpiece taper and Scientific Measurement and Adaptive Response Techniques (SMART) control. This system incorporates the knowledge gained during the previous 20 plus years of research to make grinding a science rather than an art. Our approach utilizes a unique rot ...

Metron proposes a software framework for crowd-sourcing weather observations in a maritime environment leveraging personal mobile devices. Our proposed App, the Mariner’s Report App (MARApp), draws data from existing sensors in modern smartphones and tablets, as well as meteorological sensors normally found on small marine vessels. Our architecture is modular, extensible, and readily adaptable t ...

The Hybrid Quadrotor concept, developed by Latitude Engineering, combines the high power density of electric motors and propellers with the high energy density of a piston engine and liquid fuel. Together, each technology enables maximum performance in HQ's two regimes of flight: the electric system is responsible for lift while hovering (high power, short endurance), and the gas engine gives long ...

R3 Digital Sciences (R3-DS) will develop and commercialize the Fish Trap Extension Kit (FTEK), and electromechanical device that will extend the capabilities of existing fish traps, and convert them from indiscriminate traps into “smart traps” capable of targeting specific fish types. To eliminate lionfish bycatch, the FTEK will enable existing commercial spiny lobster traps to autonomously de ...
