The military combat eye protection (MCEP) program is designed to protect our soldiers' eyes from the external threats of fragmentation, electromagnetic radiation, wind, dust, sand, etc. and greatly improve both safety and operational effectiveness. However, the goggles and spectacles on the Militarys authorized protective eyewear list (APEL) are only effective if the soldier is wearing them. Foggi ...

SOF combat swimmers have a need for the continuous monitoring of each others relative position while diving and for the capability of being able to communicate with each other to help establish a common operational picture (COP).The C3SA system was previously developed under SBIR Topic SOCOM08-001 thru the receipt of both Phase I and Phase II SBIR awards.The C3SA established a stand-alone network ...

Hemorrhage is the leading cause of preventable death in combat, and damage control resuscitation (DCR) research has shown that plasma is a superior resuscitation fluid for severely injured, bleeding canine casualties.However, cold chain requirements make managing fresh frozen plasma (FFP) supply logistics difficult in austere environments.Limited supplies of pathogen reduced freeze-dried plasma (F ...

Acclimatization is the long-term adjustment that humans experience when exposed for weeks or months to high altitude. Acclimatization is important in this context because a warfighter who is acclimatized to high altitude is immune to high altitude illness, has superior work capacity, and has cognitive function approaching that found at sea level. In other words, the acclimatized warfighter is opti ...

AimLock will prototype and test an integrated system of its automated targeting (optical based remote weapon station) hard-kill system and a radar-based early warning and locator system from C-Speed (or similar) for rapid counter-UAS missions. This work will build upon AimLock's already demonstrated hard-kill capability and C-Speed's long range radar detection and classification by automating the ...

In this Phase II program, improved performance SWIR sensors with extended wavelength response to 2.5 microns will be developed using two disruptive technologies, which Amethyst has successfully demonstrated in the Phase I program: unipolar barrier (e.g., nBn) detector structures, and defect passivation via hydrogenation. This two-pronged approach addresses the main performance limitation of extend ...

SATCOM On-The-Move (OTM) is one of the greatest operational and tactical advantages our troops have. The SATCOM terminals available pose a number of practical constraints resulting in less than universal usage. Traditional reflectors are high profile and difficult to integrate on aircraft and ground vehicles. The ability to maintain link during high-g maneuvers such as travelling over rough terr ...

In this Phase I effort, FIRST RF will develop and evaluate concepts for advanced Surface Search Phased Array radar systems that will be integrated on Naval Special Warfare Combatant-Craft. A phased array system allows for dynamic beam steering with graceful degradation and eliminates the need for mechanical pointing of the antenna aperture. The FIRST RF SSPA radar system will detect, locate, track ...
