The diagnostic systems in use in military machines are large and expensive. Other military machines could benefit from diagnostic and prognostic systems, but cannot afford the added size, weight and expense. Orbital Research proposes to address this issue by adapting the rugged ASICs that it has presently in development, and those planned for future development, into a single System on a Chip ( ...

The goal of this Phase I project is to develop an engineering plan and to create a prototype for a mobile, cloud-based expert system to aid in diagnosis, decision support and predictive analytics to improve clinical outcomes for veterans, soldiers, and their families with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Lifecom, Inc. is a health information technology compan ...

Civilian and military organizations throughout the world perform surveillance to combat vector-borne disease. Of particular concern to the U.S. military are mosquito genera Anopheles, Aedes and Culex, which are important vectors for malaria, dengue and West Nile virus respectively, and sand fly genera Phlebotomus and Lutzomyia, both vectors for leishmaniasis. The trap most commonly used for by U.S ...

This proposal contains the description for a hearing protection device (HPD) fit-test instrument, the CCA-200fit. The CCA-200fit has the capability to determine if an individual is receiving effective noise protection from an HPD. The CCA-200fit also has training capabilities via a display, audio, and a touchscreen which will allow it to provide instruction, feedback, and results to the individual ...

The company has developed a silk-derived protein (SDP) for use as a novel ophthalmic formulation excipient that will help to treat the ocular injuries and dry eye pathology that affects over 40 million Americans annually and hundreds of millions of people worldwide. The SDP excipient is designed to enhance tear formulation comfort, longevity, and overall ocular health. This proposal builds on the ...

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

Veterans with amputations are relatively common as a result of war and peace keeping efforts. The civilian amputee population is also steadily growing as a result of vascular disease. For many years, there has been an emphasis on the development of prosth

Current balance and gait assessment practices in field environments lack adequate sensitivity to measure subtle but potentially duty-limiting deficits in Service Member (SM) performance. Clinicians endeavor to provide timely, evidence-based assessment of

Cornerstone Research Group Inc. (CRG) proposes to develop an externally wearable, non-invasive, battery-operated device capable of providing analgesia equivalent to pharmacological peripheral ring nerve blocks by manipulating nervous system activity with

The Video-Compression using Robust, Adaptive, Multiple Methods, and Innovative Techniques (V-CRAMMIT) project is a Second Phase II effort that continues developing, demonstrating, and fielding innovative compression solutions while expanding into the vide
