From pharmaceuticals and stimulants to industrial chemicals like pesticides and plastic components, the number of contaminants in waste, surface, and groundwater is increasing astronomically. As the hazardous limits of some of these toxins are as low as the 1 part-per-trillion (ppt) range, very sensitive analytical techniques are required. A variety of techniques exist, but they are expensive, lab ...

The goal of the proposed effort is to develop polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB)-free pigments and synthetic pathways that do not unintentionally generate PCB as byproducts. This effort will harness Kebotix’s existing AI-powered platform, which includes a workflow that controls high-throughput computational modeling of molecules and materials, proprietary machine learning methods for process contro ...

Open source software has become the modern application development platform across the Department of Defense, as well as broader industrial enterprises. More than 90% of professional applications today are created using open source components. Furthermore, open source software often comprises 70% or more of the code in any modern application. However, supply chain attacks on open source software g ...

In this proposed D2P2 project, we will rapidly develop a second generation XtruJog machine, XJ-2, to be capable of automatically hot joggling parts with the required joggles at the programmed locations. Self-funded proof-of-concept research has shown that

The Tesseract Smart Space Environment is a collaborative workspace designed to create immersive situational awareness and control over highly desperate information streams. This may include incoming feeds from IoT assets, cameras, sensors, enterprise soft

Jaxon, Inc. (“Jaxon”) is a technology company founded in 2017. Jaxon is on a mission to help data science teams build AI faster by automating as much of the AI lifecycle as possible and alleviating common bottlenecks that stall AI adoption. JAXON ("JAXON"), our off-the-shelf commercial software, automates sparse-label training, accelerates data labeling by 90% or more over the 'traditional' me ...

Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI) proposes to develop a novel optical sensor capable of providing aircraft paint thickness measurements, which can be integrated within the current laser robotic systems used for aircraft paint removal. Currently, such robotic s

As more military operations rely on technology, Special Forces Operators need to be equipped with the skills and tools to protect their digital assets and disrupt enemy communications. In the (unclassified) SOCOM guidance that was signed in December 2022,

Busek Co. Inc has created and patented a tethered spacecraft (s/c) system called SOUL (Satellite on Umbilical Line).  Under various sponsorships including the U.S. Air and Space Force, and NASA, five (5) progressively more capable versions of SOUL have be

Quantum computing has the potential to revolutionize high-performance computing, solving problems beyond the reach of today's most powerful supercomputers. However, current state-of-the-art quantum computer hardware is fundamentally limited by two major o
