Award Data

Universal Technology Corporation (UTC) has teamed with the University of Dayton Research Institute (UDRI), Stratonics, and Macy Consulting to demonstrate not only the transitionability into commercial systems, but also to develop the data analytics and monitoring and control requirements to extract the full value fromseveral sensors, including the Stratonics ThermaViz, acoustic and profilometry se ...

Acclimatization is the long-term adjustment that humans experience when exposed for weeks or months to high altitude. Acclimatization is important in this context because a warfighter who is acclimatized to high altitude is immune to high altitude illness, has superior work capacity, and has cognitive function approaching that found at sea level. In other words, the acclimatized warfighter is opti ...

The proposed research and technical objectives in this project deal with computerized automatic delayering and polishing system that would be applicable to both commercial and government semiconductor device research and development with applications including Failure Analysis (FA), Fault Isolation (FI), and Reverse Engineering (RE) of semiconductor microelectronic devices. This project could hel ...

Most standard-of-care tools and techniques for evaluating neck disorders are subjective, unreliable, and do not provide actionable information for providers, payers, and organizations to deliver efficient and effective care. This lack of objective neck he

In this proposal we support the development of a hypoxia test battery by designing and developing a domain general tool suite for processing, synchronizing, and evaluating data from cognitive, behavioral, and physiological measures.The proposed Griffon Tool Suite addresses many of the practical requirements demanded by a flexible test battery. The effort falls into three major thrusts.First, we pr ...

Triton Systems, Inc. proposes to develop a piezo-textile that can capture underwater explosion pressure wave patterns to ultimately establish and monitor for injury risk severity. We propose to use a state-of-the-art piezo-textile to which we will apply our own proprietary treatments.We will assess our textiles pressure detection performance and durability against a non-textile piezoelectric array ...

Research has identified that handoffs are particularly important communication processes, during which communication error can lead to patient safety situations. Organizations have created standard practices and training materials to encourage teamwork communication for handoffs, however these do not necessarily capture the needs of military medicine of combat casualty care. Combat casualty handof ...

Triton Systems will develop a novel approach to field-based disease and biochemical diagnostics through innovative use of extremely low cost bioanalytical devices.The proposed platform will provide a low cost, portable, and reliable diagnostic test for on-site use in austere and resource-limited environments.The devices will be highly durable, rugged, and easy to use without user-induced variation ...

Special Operations Forces (SOF) are an integral aspect of the US military. SOF operators are among the most elite and highly qualified individuals in the U.S. military. As such, extraordinary physical and mental demands are placed upon them to excel in extreme environments for extended periods of time. This unrelenting cycle of combat deployments and intense pre-deployment training shortens the fu ...

The increasing penetration of MEMs devices into the commercial market has lead to an increasing demand for micro-sized electrical energy storage devices to interface with a support them. Electrochemical double layer capacitors hold significant promise as
