Artificial intelligence-assisted detection and imaging technology can gather data on underwater, surface, and aerial threats to gain situational awareness over opposing forces, and aids in navigating dangerous marine and terrestrial environments. Successful and efficient use of intel is crucial for strategic information warfare, but many current technologies require active monitoring to identify t ...

Thermal batteries are single-discharge reserve batteries that provide a very long shelf life, minimal self-discharge, wide storage temperature range, fast activation under sudden power demand, and also a wide range of temperature operating conditions. 32Upon activation, thermal batteries are heated with an internal pyrotechnic heat charge above the melting temperature of the molten salt electrolyt ...

Control Vision, Inc. (CVI) proposes a flight-worthy calibrated visible snapshot hyperspectral sensor prototype for use on an MDA test mission. Approved for Public Release | 23-MDA-11401 (14 Mar 23)

The Phase II effort will develop a hardware assurance process for development of testing regimes supporting DoD total ironizing dose (TID) Radiation Hardware Assurance (RHA) requirements while being minimally disruptive to commercial practices and facilitate assured and cost-effective utilization of foundries used by the DoD. Phase II will build upon the Trusted Silicon Stratus-Distributed Transit ...

Distributed surface sensing of next generation flight vehicles will enable longer timelines and more accurate flight controls through measurement of surface recession, temperature, and pressure. The environment that the vehicle is required to withstand makes building and testing such a multi-sensory system extremely challenging. Control Vision, Inc. proposes a distributed network of optical sensor ...

RTSync Corp. and WarpIV technologies have each performed research to evolve different and complementary aspects of a Model Level Integrated Simulation Architecture. The RTSync team, employed the Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS) formalism and the existing RTSync owned Modeling and Simulation environment (MS4 Me) to base the architecture design on a firm system theoretical and computationa ...

Emrgy, Inc., a pioneer in commercializing hydrokinetic power systems, is teaming with Premier Energy Holdings, Stanford University and University of Tennessee, Knoxville to develop a highly innovative solution to low-cost, riverine and tidal-based clean energy power generation. The project will implement “dynamic tuning” of the hydrokinetic turbine system to optimize performance across variabl ...

In Phase I, the RTSync team investigated the design of a non-real-time simulation platform that created an opportunity to radically change the way simulation utilizing enterprises include high fidelity models of software systems within their simulations. The new approach to developing and testing proposed System of System (SoS) architectures is to employ models of hardware systems that execute the ...
