This SBIR proposal addresses a high priority DoD need for an improved man-portable magnetic sensor to detect and localize mines and UneXploded Ordnance (UXO). UXO field testing has clearly shown the superiority of magnetic-based technology over other technologies such as ground penetrating radar and infrared sensors. Total field magnetometers and gradiometers, although relatively unaffected b ...

"We propose to take a structure, comprehensive, and multi-dimensional look at issues related to cognition, adaptive thinking, and performance under various environmental stressors. More particularly, we will investigate how these constellation of factorsapply to junior leadership performance and actual and potential growth, and how the results of this research can improve skills and leadership tr ...

Continuing advances in computer networking, distributed computing, and the standardization and exchange of medical information make it possible for clinicians to retrieve increasing amounts of patient data on-line. However, accessing upwards of hundredsof pages of data for each patient can overwhelm the clinician who may have just a few minutes before and during each 15 or 20-minute patient visit ...

"There is an acute need to rapidly detect cancer markers and help diagnose cancer at the earliest stage possible. The objective of this Phase I proposal is to demonstrate the feasibility of developing a simple point-of-care diagnostic tool for the detectionof cancer markers. Early diagnosis of prostate, ovarian, breast and other cancers will allow the physician to intervene earlier in the cancer ...

"There is an acute need to rapidly and accurately detect cancer markers and help diagnose cancer at the earliest stage possible. The objective of this Phase II proposal is to develop a point-of-care diagnostic device for the detection of molecularsignatures of cancer and construct a prototype instrument. Early diagnosis of prostate, ovarian, breast and other cancers will allow the physician to i ...

Significant similarities exist between DoD simulation applications and networked simulation games developed for entertainment. To date, however, there has been no compelling reason for commercial game developers to adopt DoD methods and standards. Interestingly, HLA compares favorably to current commercial solutions like Microsoft's DirectPlay. There is clear benefit to DoD if HLA is embraced b ...

Federal, state, local, and military missions for Disaster Relief, Emergency Action, and Humanitarian Assistance (DREAHA) require all of the traditional command, control, communications, computer and intelligence (C4I) functions used by military units for traditional warfare. New civilian systems that leverage and reuse military C4I systems to plan, prepare, identify, vector, monitor, and recover ...

In this proposed SBIR program, Accuwave will investigate and demonstrate architectures for compact hologrpahic storage using materials and system innovations to reduce complexity and improve performance. Crosstalk, data formatting, input/output interfaces, and other relevant parameters will be characterized. Both wavelength and angle multiplexing, as well as its combination, will be used to prov ...
