CyberPoint International presents the design of a cross platform product for the autonomous execution of live forensic investigations of Personal Computers, Laptops and Servers leveraging the NIST NSRL corpus and a combination of at least 3 forms of machine learning/artificial intelligent algorithms for the processing of preliminary digital evidence titled TheSieve. We build upon work from our pha ...

Graphene Waves proposes to develop a quantum Hall resistance (QHR) standard based on graphene that can be deployed for general electrical calibration in industries. Current QHR standard is based on GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure and requires expensive liquid helium to operate. The continuous increase in price and unstable supply chain of liquid helium limit the QHR standard to be only affordable by t ...

Parman Tech is dedicated to commercializing a NIST technology for sorting nano-particles. This technology uses the force of light to gently guide particles along different paths depending on the size of makeup of each particle.

We will develop a series of object manipulation primitives to pick up and assemble standard mechanical parts such as screws, gears and pulleys that can be configured without any programming skills. Building up on a smart robotic gripper, 3D perception and machine learning algorithms, we will design a graphical user interface for the Universal Robot E-Series that allows an user to label arbitrary 3 ...

First responders use of portable electronic devices including cell phones and radios has increased dramatically over the past decade and will continue to grow with the introduction of new visual augmentation systems, wearable sensors, and mobile computing systems being developed under the DHS Next Generation First Responder (NGFR) Apex program. The large number of powered devices, each with their ...

Next Generation First Responders, also known as NGFRs, will carry more battery powered sensors and IoT to wirelessly connected devices beyond cellphones, radios, and peripheral PPE devices, with their range of power requirements and charging connectors.Requiring first responders to track battery levels and recharge multiple devices would distract from their missions.A Power Module for First Respon ...

We will develop, demonstrate, and built a sensor array designed frommathematical models thatare based on the maximum likelihood estimator(MLE), the Cramer- Rao lower bound (CRB), and the density function theory(DFT). The MLE will be used to estimate the concentration of the gases inside a mixture by minimizing the error trough the Cramer-Rao bound.The DFT method will model thephysisorption and che ...

Innovision LLC proposes an innovative and robust solution to this topic, a software tool named PASSIG (Passenger and Baggage Simulation for Synthetic Image Generation), which can be used to quickly create 3D passenger models and baggage models. These models, in turn, can be used by electromagnetic simulation (EMS) tools to generate synthetic passenger and baggage Xray and MMV images for machine le ...

Cybersecurity risk management in complicated and dynamic environment is challenging. On one hand, cybersecurity knowledge management is complex and needs to be updated promptly with continuously emerging cybersecurity attacks and risks. The companies have to select fuse a lot of input data with their own experience for cybersecurity risk management. On the other hand, while the same or similar vul ...

WGS Systems LLC (WGS) proposes the Detector Integration with Current and Emerging Networked Systems (DICENS) research and engineering effort to develop relevant communications protocols, application programming interfaces, and interface control documentation to allow legacy and emerging radiation detection systems to be integrated into current and emerging networked systems.Radiation and nuclear ( ...
