Materials for Gravure Printing of Chemical Gas Sensors
SBC: INTERLINK ELECTRONICS, INC Topic: 2From 2012-2015 the world’s first printed amperometric gas sensors were developed at KWJ Engineering Inc. as the subject of an NSF SBIR. The patented technology was used to found SPEC-sensor LLC and obtain commercial funds. More than one million sensors have been sold using SPEC’s patented designs, which led to the recent acquisition by Interlink Electronics, Inc. The next challenge is to grow ...

DIGITAL TV-BASED POSITIONING FOR FIRST RESPONDER TRACKING IN GPS-DENIED ENVIRONMENTS
SBC: Tiami LLC Topic: 1An area significantly lacking in first responder situational awareness is accurate responder location within various types of building structures above ground and underground such as tunnels and basements where GPS coverage is unavailable. GPS alternatives that rely on pre-deployed infrastructure such as indoor WiFi or mobile wireless networks or require the deployment of uncrewed aerial vehicles ...

On-Chip Cold Cathode Electron Sources for X-Ray Generation & Imaging: Advancing a NIST-Patented Technology
SBC: JULIA JEAN, LLC Topic: 2Over a decade ago, scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) invented a cold cathode electron field emitter with the potential to disrupt the state of the art for imaging and communications systems. NIST showed that these devices, comprising nanoporous silicon carbide structures of various hierarchical shapes, can emit electrons from their surfaces purely by applicati ...

Analytical Quality Management for 3D-Printed Small Molecule Drugs
SBC: INFRATRAC INC Topic: 2The promise of personalized medicine can be realized in part via point-of-care 3D drug printing, but only if there are reliable quality measures available. Children and seniors may need custom or easy-to-swallow doses, a need now addressed only in a limited way by ad-hoc in-pharmacy compounding. Compliance-targeted enhancements such as flavor and shape choices are particularly important for childr ...

Innovative UV Biofouling Mitigation Technique for In-water Optical Sensors
SBC: BIOSPHERICAL INSTRUMENTS, INC. Topic: 93This project will build upon research conducted during a Phase I SBIR effort, which showed that germicidal UV-C radiation emitted by LEDs installed inside of submerged radiometers can reach levels known to prevent biofouling (accumulation of biological matter) on their external optical surfaces (windows, diffusers) without affecting the instrument’s measurements. This technology will improve the ...

Enabling Data Measurements Using Smart Buoy Technology On Fishing Gear
SBC: Blue Ocean Gear Inc. Topic: 93As global efforts toward ocean health have gained momentum, it is critical to generate high quality ocean data for industries that operate and/or manage ocean resources. Blue Ocean Gear has demonstrated how Smart Buoys equipped with sensors can be useful to fisheries by tracking gear and providing enhanced marine condition awareness. Building on Phase I efforts, this project will highlight the opp ...

Flood Location and Alerting
SBC: INTELLISENSE SYSTEMS INC Topic: 92To address NOAA’s need for technologies conducive to a weather-ready nation, Intellisense Systems, Inc. (Intellisense) proposes, in Phase II, to advance the development of a new Flood Location and Alerting (FLOA) software system proven feasible in Phase I. FLOA is based on integrating data from IoT flood sensors such as Intellisense’s AWARE, combined with publicly available data, into Waze, a ...

DeepRL Sim-to-Real
SBC: PIERRE JOHN M LLC Topic: SCO182006Project FORCIS investigates solutions to the challenging problem of few-shot object detection. FORCIS leverages synthetic training data generated by simulation engines which are dynamically parameterized to maximize utility to a downstream deep-learning algorithm. We explore this approach, inspired by advances in the Reinforcement Learning (RL) branch of machine learning (ML), and contrast it agai ...

Innovative Emulsion Polymerization Manufacture of Dual-Function, Nanoscale, Calibration Spheres Over the Range of 100 to 400 nm Diameter
SBC: COLLOIDAL METRICS CORPORATION Topic: 2This proposal seeks to extend the Company’s existing ability to manufacture 100 nm polystyrene latex (PSL) size standards to include 200 and 400 nm latexes. We also propose to add accurate particle concentration data to all the size standards. A given, dual-function product will serve as both a size standard and a particle concentration reference material. Both these end uses require the latex p ...

Infrared Polarimetric Wave Imaging (I-PWI) for Passive Remote Sensing of Sea State
SBC: Arete Associates Topic: 91The ocean surface is a dynamic and challenging work environment where knowledge of sea state and surface currents is critical for safe and effective operations. We propose to develop a new Infrared Polarimetric Wave Imaging (I-PWI) sea state sensor. I-PWI will be deployed on offshore structures such as oil platforms and wind turbines. The technology complements existing monitoring capabilities inc ...
