The CONOPS for the Expeditionary Medical Support System (EMEDS) is based on practical effectiveness, speed, and efficiency. Key among the tools required by the Air Mobility Command and the Air Combat Command, which are two of the major commands that are part of the United Air Force is a multi-channel intravenous infusion pump capable of delivering fluids that meets the safe-to-fly criteria for all ...

FireSky/CHATTIN (Cyber Hardening and Agility Technology for Tactical IP Networks) provides cyber defense, agility, and real-time threat intelligence for aerial tactical IP networks. FireSky/CHATTIN drops into existing IP based aerial networks and provides cyber defense. This work involves enhancing FireSky/CHATTIN to provide the capabilities required for deployment to Battlefield Airborne Communic ...

Our goal in this SBIR project is to develop a lightweight, low-power, inexpensive hyperspectral spectro-polarimetric imaging sensor for wide area standoff detection of chemical agents. The imaging system will employ an acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF) that operates in the LWIR wavelength range. The sensor will have polarimetric imaging capabilities which, adds a valuable signature feature to im ...

In this Phase II effort, Zeteo will further develop over-the-ear and in-ear canine hearing protection device prototypes. These devices will combine passive hearing protection with active noise cancelation. The devices will also have a communication channel to allow the handler to communicate with the dog. Design requirements evolved from Phase I will be used to design over-ear and in-ear configura ...

Airworthiness assessments of software-intensive based systems in aviation cannot be limited to verification and testing of the end product, i.e. computer code, since other factors can have an important effect on safety and integrity. Current methods and tools have limitations that do not adequately address the issues affecting the growth in complexity and cost of system development and certificati ...

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 The recordings of such buried utilities are often erroneous, inadequate, or outdated (if they ever exist) due to insufficient surveying methodologies and as-built recording practices.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 ...

This project researches and develops a mobile application (app), Take on Training, to provide direct services workers (DSWs), including job coaches, with on-demand instruction by way of short vignettes to promote the maximum level of independence for people with disabilities at work. Objectives for this Phase II project are to produce a commercially available, mobile, cross-platform app for job co ...
