Innovative Technologies for Detection and Discrimination of Surface and Buried Explosive Hazards
SBC: Guidestar Optical Systems, Inc. Topic: A15108Detecting buried in road or roadside explosive threats is a major problem facing the Army on todays battlefield. Recent studies have shown that Long Wave Infrared (LWIR) imaging polarimeters can detect these threats; however, the implementation of the polarimeters has not been traceable to a ruggedized, field ready imaging system. Guidestar Optical Systems proposes to develop an imaging LWIR polar ...

Low-cost Rapid Stand-off Detection of Explosives
SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC. Topic: A16011Detection and neutralization of explosive hazards including Home Made Explosives (HMEs) and Improvised explosive devices (IEDs) is an important problem for U.S. Army. IED attacks accounted for 62% of all U.S. casualties in Operation Enduring Freedom and are now accepted as a significant threat to homeland security and the U.S. forces all over the world. Hence, from a detection perspective, a capab ...

Multi-Band Body Wearable Antenna
SBC: FIRST RF CORPORATION Topic: A16033Having successfully completed a Phase II program culminating in the delivery of 50 prototype SINCGARS antennas, FIRST RF understands the challenges of body-wearable antenna design and implementation. Given its substantial scope, FIRST RF recognizes that there is considerable risk involved in the Phase I effort. However, instead of starting from square one, FIRST RF will be able to leverage past wo ...

Digital Readout Integrated Circuits With Efficient, Low Power On-chip Data Compression
SBC: BFE Acquisition Sub II, LLC Topic: A16040There is a continuing push for very large format, very high dynamic range, very fast frame rate digital Infrared Focal Plane Arrays (IRFPAs) by the DOD community. Some emerging applications require FPA data rates >100 Gb/s; for commonly used Low Voltage Differential Signal (LVDS) output circuits with 1 Gb/s capability, this translates to 100 pairs of Dewar feedthrough wires creating un-manageable ...

A Smart High Temperature Pressure Sensor for Abrams Engine Stall Detection
SBC: SPORIAN MICROSYSTEMS, INC Topic: A16073The Abrams turbine engine (AGT-1500) is currently suffering from an issue in which the compressor stalls, creating a surge event that causes significant damage to the fourth stage of the low pressure compressor There is a need for a viable system for measuring the early onset or precursors of rotating stall in real-time on an operational turbine engine, which can detect a surge event in order to t ...

Using the Conditional Moment Closure Method to Assess the Effects of Turbulence Chemical Kinetics
SBC: REACTION SYSTEMS, INC. Topic: A16AT001The ability to accurately design and predict the performance of combustion-based machinery like gas turbine engines is important in improving their performance, increasing their fuel economy, lowering operating costs, and decreasing pollutant emissions. Almost all of the flows are turbulent in industrial combustion applications, therefore understanding the interaction between turbulence and combu ...

Rotorcraft External Far-Field Noise Measurement Using a Hot-Air Balloon
SBC: DELTA GROUP INTERNATIONAL LLC Topic: A14AT001An innovative and fundamental approach to measure far field noise of a helicopter using a hot-air balloon as an acoustic measurement platform is described. The technique, featuring a microphone suspended beneath the basket of a hot-air balloon, is used to obtain acoustic data above, in, and below the horizon plane of a helicopter in forward flight. This approach is postulated to have many advantag ...

Vacuum Integrated System for Ion Trapping
SBC: COLDQUANTA, INC. Topic: A15AT009We propose to develop a compact, integrated ion trap quantum system for quantum sensor, timekeeping, and computing applications. To do so, we leverage ColdQuantas expertise in miniature ultra-high vacuum (UHV) and atom chip technology and Duke Universitys expertise in microfabricated surface ion traps and quantum information processing experiments. We will produce a manufacturable, commercializa ...

Hybrid Battery/Supercapacitor Energy Storage Device
SBC: ADA TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Topic: A15AT010ADA Technologies, Inc. (ADA) and Dr. Massoud Pedram at the University of Southern California (USC) have successfully completed a Phase I STTR effort for the development of a lithium ion (Li-ion)/ supercapacitor hybrid electrical energy storage system (HEESS) to afford pulse power characteristics (projected ~10 kW/kg) in a high energy system (100-150 Wh/kg). The system is enabled via a constant cur ...
