Award Data

Current cervical spine assessment methodologies are focused on subjective measures (i.e. pain reports) and range-of-motion (ROM) measures that only measure maximum head excursion and reach, but not dynamic motion. Due to report bias and existing incentive

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

Traumatic injuries account for 30% of all life years lost in the US and is the leading cause of death for people under 46 years of age. Uncontrolled bleeding or hemorrhage constitute 30-40% of trauma related deaths and are considered to be a major cause o

Current prosthetic feet produce much less peak mechanical power than the able-bodied foot/ankle and release only about half of the mechanical energy generated during gait. This leads to higher energy expenditure among amputees as compared to able-bodied i

This Phase II proposal is in response to the Defense Health Agency 2017 SBIR topic 17B-005. The approach is an electrochemical membrane oxygen pump using newly developed nano-thickness membrane technology. The total membrane with all the layers is less

Adverse physiological events (PEs) have plagued warfighters piloting military aircraft, particularly incidents involving hypoxia and cockpit cabin decompression. Although a variety of research has been performed to try to understand the problems and root

The goal of this STTR Phase II project is to produce a wearable device with the capability to sense and record blast waves from in-air and underwater explosions. The flexible piezoelectric film-based sensor that was identified as an accurate sensing eleme

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 ...

This proposal is in response to the Defense Health Agency 2017 Phase I SBIR topic 17B-005.The approach is the use of a membrane oxygen pump using newly developed nano-thickness membranes with all the layers less than 1 micron total.Nanometer thickness membranes enable more oxygen output per surface area at temperatures of 300-600 C than current state-of-the -art 600-800 C membranes that are 50-300 ...

Adverse physiological events (PEs) have plagued warfighters piloting military aircraft, in particular PEs involving hypoxia and cockpit cabin decompression. Though there has been a large variety of research performed in trying to understand the problems and why theyre caused, there are inefficiencies due to the lack of standardized cross-laboratory protocols, procedures, and metrics. To address th ...
