This project supports the ARPA-E Mission Area of “improving management, clean-up and disposal of radioactive waste and spent nuclear fuel”. A series of tests and demonstrations for deep borehole disposal canisters at the Deep Borehole Demonstration Center in Cameron, Texas - coupled with development of a US supply chain and global tech-to-market partnerships - will mature the canister to Techn ...

This combined phase SBIR I,II,IIS proposal seeks to develop and demonstrate high power lithium battery cells having up to 330 Wh-kg specific energy with capability to fast charge using a novel Liquefied Gas Electrolyte (LiGas) technology. The LiGas electrolyte uses safe and non-toxic, non-corrosive gasses which are liquefied under moderate pressures and are easily contained in standard cylindrical ...

We propose to develop and commercialize a potassium-ion battery for use in electric vehicles (EVs). The fundamental properties of potassium transport in organic electrolytes allow for fast charging from 0 to 80% capacity in less than 5 minutes. The battery will pair a stable, open-framework cathode based on a Prussian blue analog (PBA) with a conventional graphite anode for a high-performance batt ...

This proposal is designed to extend Roam's current wearable robot capabilities into SOF-specific applications. To accomplish this, this project is designed to develop and validate the base requirements of a wearable system to meet SOF peculiar mission sets through system evaluation, design refinement, and voice of the customer capture. Within this project, we will target specific user populations ...

Femtosense is an innovative tech startup leading the charge to deploy sparse AI using novel techniques that are far more affordable and easier to implement than traditional AI computational technologies. Femtosense’s invention – the Sparse Processing Unit (SPU-001) is a TRL level 7 processing chip poised to disrupt the $50B AI hardware market. It offers best-in-class SWaP-C (Size, Weight, Powe ...

IERUS is developing a novel phased array ground terminal aperture architecture for the DoD's next generation of satellite constellations. With the proliferation of high-bandwidth satellites across LEO, MEO, and GEO, there is a need for SWaP-C optimized user terminal apertures. The IERUS solution implements scalable and mission-set reconfigurable technologies to enable rapid transition into operati ...
