Today, urban underground spaces are shared by multiple utility companies for laying power lines, gas lines, water supply/sewage pipes, fiber-optic cables, etc. The recordings of such buried utilities are often erroneous, inadequate, or outdated (if they ever exist) due to insufficient surveying methodologies and as-built recording practices. Ability to accurately locate and provide awareness of bu ...

Planned or unplanned traffic events, such as work zones, collision accidents, sporting games and stormy/snowy weather, arise along our roadway systems and affect normal traffic operations. These anomaly events cause various magnitude of traffic congestion and safety impact to road users. Thus, local or regional Traffic Management Centers (TMCs) have spent tremendous amount of resources responding ...

To keep drivers and passengers of vehicles safe, especially in rural areas with limited access to Information and Communications Technology (ICT), the DOT and the commercial automotive industry are keenly interested in machine vision based V2I and CAV technology to perform functions such as navigating assistance in areas where GPS or detailed maps are unavailable, caution and warning systems capab ...

Knowledge Based Systems, Inc. (KBSI) is pleased to propose the further design and development of MySidewalk mobile application facilitating the crowd-sourced collection of sidewalk inventory and condition data. The MySidewalk application utilizes advances in social networks and data mining to provide integrated sidewalk datasets. Phase I and II research was facilitated by inputs from City of Colle ...

New pathogens, both naturally occurring and adversary-engineered, are increasingly likely to emerge and represent a significant and growing risk to global health and security. These new threats often have limited genetic similarity to prior known pathogens and cannot be identified through standard genetic tests. The application of machine learning algorithms to phenotypic tests to predict pathogen ...

The US Navy, industry and the scientific community is using and developing a variety of AUVs, underwater sensors, and other systems that can be easily deployed and operated with minimal maintenance or recurring costs. A primary hindrance to the long-term implementation of these systems is the availability of in situ energy. The concepts presented herein focus on the harvesting of methane from seep ...

This effort will build upon our state-of-the-art technology for real-time human state assessment and rely on the expertise and existing sociometric data provided by JHU. Phase I will demonstrate the utility of social context factors in predicting the current and future state of a team and its members and will pave the way for Phase II development and comprehensive evaluation.

In this program, Morton Photonics (MP) and its STTR partner Professor John Bowers and his research group at the University of California at Santa Barbara (UCSB) will develop two truly disruptive integrated laser devices: (1) A broadly tunable integrated laser with ultra-low linewidth, ultra-low relative intensity noise (RIN), and high output power; the Integrated Coherent Tunable Laser (ICTL), whi ...

The current seL4 ecosystem is centered on a wiki and github that are maintained by NICTA and Data61 (a commercial spin-off organization of NICTA). Many branches and forks of the seL4 code base are publicly accessible, but often orphaned and outdated. Additionally, the major training and education efforts are mainly offered and managed by Data61. However, due to geographical distance from the Unite ...
