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 ...

Predicting the emission signature and radar cross-section of rocket exhaust plumes is of vital interest to the Missile Defense Agency and U.S. Army to protect the U.S. homeland and our forces abroad.  The current STTR Phase II project has shown that a single-conditioned Premixed Conditional Moment Closure (PCMC) can employ detailed chemical kinetic mechanisms while efficiently modeling combustion ...

Health surveillance is the first line in detecting an epidemic and understanding its causes and progression and preventing a pandemic. It generally consists of systematic collection and reporting of population-based data for the purposes of detecting, characterizing, and countering health threats. While this seems sound in theory, by the time patients present with symptoms, laboratory specimens ar ...

The goal is to develop a volatile odor detector using mammalian olfactory receptors (ORs) integrated with metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) nanoelectronic circuits. The Army has urgent need for cost-effective odor sensing for novel biological materials integrated with inorganic devices to sense chemical and biological agents. However, e-noses still do not possess the dynamic range and selectivity o ...

To further accelerate the commercialization process of our supercapactior yarns, we plan to further lower the production cost, enhance our yearn performance and optimize customer experience via materials and process engineering and innovative platform development. The major deliverable of this sequential Phase II project is to demonstrate the throughput capacity of a large area supercapactior fabr ...

Our membraneless water purification system using continuous, self-contained, vacuum-assisted diffusiophoresis. Using diffusiophoresis allows the system to clean water contaminated with particulates and bacteria without membranes or filters, while producing a stream of fresh, drinkable water. The system will operate using only electricity supplied by portable batteries/solar cells or stationary gen ...

Modus Operandi and the Florida Institute for Human and Machine Cognition will continue development of the Runnable Environment for Team Effectiveness and Assessment Metrics (reTEAM) platform demonstrated in the Phase I effort by adding the social sensors and analytical capabilities required to drive scalable visualizations and a predictive outcome-based recommendation engine. The Phase II effort w ...

To address the needs laid out in the solicitation, “Disablement of Vehicles and/or Remote Weapon Stations in an Urban Environment”, IS4S is developing a weapon system that allows for the disablement of critical components in electronic systems. Current soldier delivered weapons fail to meet the requirements of low collateral damage engagement in civilian populated areas. The solutions consider ...

On-site activated decontaminants will revolutionize chemical and biological decon because the activated solution is produced on demand, without the limitations of traditional pre-made mixtures. TDAs system uses electrical activation to convert battery power into reactive chemicals that quickly destroy chemical and biological warfare agents. Prior to activation, the decontaminant mixture can be saf ...

There is a military and industry need for easy-to-use, versatile alloys for metals additive manufacturing (3D printing) that print consistently regardless of the specific process or machine and without requiring in-depth metallurgical or manufacturing knowledge. Such capability is critical for soldiers to be able to make needed items on demand in the theater of war. In addition, the alloy will be ...
