Non-warhead debris from a typical anti-ship or air-to-air missile can comprise as much as 70% of the total striking mass, which makes it a crucial component of any lethality or survivability assessment and increasingly important as stand-off missile programs are rising in demand.  Many current LVS modeling tools in use by the government do not address residual non-warhead missile debris at all, a ...

Impaired driving due to alcohol and drugs is a significant public health and safety problem in the U.S. The detection and enforcement of impaired driving laws are key to reducing this problem. Virtual reality training has the potential to support law enforcement officers in obtaining the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively detect impaired drivers. DetectID will be an immersive, accessibl ...

WISER Systems, Inc. is a small, woman-owned, disadvantaged business providing best-in-class real-time location systems (RTLS) for nearly any environment. WISER’s RTLS powers applications in aerospace, manufacturing, warehousing, yard management, and many other industries. Unlike GPS-based solutions, WISER’s Redundant Radio Localization and Tracking (RRLT) technology enables autonomous position ...

The current X-ray imaging devices ion the market cannot meet the rising requirements for more safe, higher resolution and portable X-ray imaging applications. One new technology, photon-counting X-ray detector, is revolutionizing the X-ray imaging process which afford high spatial resolution, almost zero electronic noise, much better signal-to-noise ratio, at orders of magnitude lower radiation do ...

Cosmic Eats, Inc. is developing a food production system that is based on growing plants, algae and fungi in a multi-modular system. Fresh and processed biomass is combined to prepare nutritious food products and meals.

Sterility testing of biologics products remains a regulatory requirement in the pharmaceutical industry. However, currently available technologies and instrument suffer tedious labor interventions on culturing, staining or filtering procedures that preclude a rapid and automated testing. In this SBIR program Zymeron will develop a revolutionary micro Sterility Test Filtering (µSTF) instrument for ...

Current REBOA solutions occlude the vessel by inflating a balloon internally and creating a seal against the endothelium. By partially deflating the balloon, a reduced flow state can be accomplished to allow perfusion of distal tissue and mitigate ischemic injury, but this has been difficult to manage. Fluid dynamics show that flow restriction through an orifice is linearly proportional to its cro ...

In this effort, Vadum proposes to expand, formalize, and develop software to implement the concepts previously developed in its Electronic Warfare Knowledge Store (EWKS). EWKS is a concept/prototype level construct designed to facilitate data storage and reuse, particularly inter-mission, for airborne cognitive electronic warfare systems, which was developed during a Phase I effort under Air Force ...

The current X-ray imaging devices ion the market cannot meet the rising requirements for more safe, higher resolution and portable X-ray imaging applications. These mainly indirect types use a combination of scintillators with photodetector arrays.  The only direct-type X-ray detectors are based on amorphous selenium (a-Se).  Although they have the best sharpness in imaging, they are not stable ...
