DragEN- A DragSail for Small Spacecraft
SBC: SABER ASTRONAUTICS, LLC Topic: Z8Saber Astronautics has the long term vision that for every satellite launched to LEO, two objects (the main payload and a piece of existing space debris) should be brought back to Earth. The development of a cheap, compact, re-deployable drag sail or electrodynamic tether is a critical enabler to this vision, allowing for the controlled deorbit, rendezvous and docking and ultimate re-entry of both ...

Monitoring, Learning and Optimizing Crew Health and Performance
SBC: Exploration Institute, LLC Topic: H12nbsp;We propose to develop and demonstrate an artificial intelligence / machine learning (ML) algorithm which will reveal insights into astronaut health and performance, whichnbsp;in turn can be used to reduce mission risk, and optimize spacecraft resources and limited astronaut time during the mission. The proposed MLnbsp;algorithm can be applied to any astronaut biometric data including heart ra ...

Chip-scale Waveform Modulation System for Navigation Doppler Lidar
SBC: Psionic, LLC Topic: Z7The NDL is used during terminal descent; this is the phase of EDL in which terrain-relative decisions and final preparations for landing are made. During terminal descent, lander maneuvers include vehicle reorientation to facilitate surface relative sensing and using propulsion to divert away from hazards. During EDL, precise knowledge of the spacecraft state, as well as the properties of the land ...

An Autonomous Severe Weather Trend Monitor for Improved System-Wide TFM Execution
SBC: AvMet Applications, Inc. Topic: A3Severe weather remains the main disruptor to airspace operations and traffic managersrsquo; actions. An autonomous airspace system will need to automatically ingest the latest weather forecast(s), reason about its impact, and provide actionable guidance to human operators (in the transition) and/or other service-based airspace automation systems. Our proposed Innovation lays the foundation for suc ...

Quantum Clock Synchronization
SBC: Xairos Systems, Inc. Topic: H9Quantum clock synchronization (QCS) uses quantum communications to accurately and securely transfer time over long distances. Using this new technology with SQTrsquo;s heritage entangled photon sources, time transfer over long distances is possible within picosecond level accuracy. And because QCS utilizes the inherent security with entangled photons, this time transfer signal cannot be spoofed. U ...

Virtual Environment for Informative Analysis Framework’s Process: A Mixed-Reality System for Safely Enabling Human-Automation Interaction and Teaming
SBC: Traclabs Inc. Topic: A3Addressing the challenges associated withnbsp;dramatic increase in the complexity of the National Airspace System (NAS)nbsp;has required the introduction of autonomous capabilities to maintain efficiency and safety. However, as increasingly autonomous (IA) capabilities and systems are introduced into existing human-centric environments, the roles and responsibilities of humans change, especially w ...

Magsails for Spacecraft Deorbit
SBC: PIONEER ASTRONAUTICS Topic: Z8The magnetic sail, or magsail, is a new technology that can be used for deorbiting spacecraft. In the magsail deorbiting system, a loop of aluminum or copper wire is deployed at the end of life of an Earth orbiting spacecraft, and energized with an electric current, producing a magnetic field. The magnetic field forces the wire into a circular loop, and creates a small magnetosphere around the spa ...

Commercial-Scale Arrays for Lunar Exploration: Communications and Sensing System
SBC: CESIUMASTRO INC Topic: H9In order to provide high performance communication links for lunar and deep space missions, while dramatically improving cost and reducing SWaP, new approaches are required. The key enablersnbsp;to deliver this step change, mass manufacturability and software-defined design, serve as cornerstones to Cesiumrsquo;s modular design ecosystem. Leveraging Cesiumrsquo;s existingnbsp;phased array communic ...

Articulating Airbeam Tripod Boom for Solar Arrays
SBC: RYZING TECHNOLOGIES LLC Topic: H5The Articulating Airbeam Tripod Boom for Solar Arrays effort outlined here aims to provide a rapidly deployable structure that can support and elevate solar panel arrays for use in the Artemis Program#39;s development of a long-term facility on the Lunar south pole. This textile-based structure will feature protective coatings and no rigid/mechanical componentsnbsp;to prevent the negative impacts ...

PLUMMRS: A collection of Plan Ledgers and Unified Maps for Multi-Robot Safety
SBC: Traclabs Inc. Topic: Z5One major hurdle to robust multi-robot operations in space is the same hurdle faced by multi-robot applications on Earthmdash;co-located, yet independent, robotic quot;individualsquot; do not adequately share state information. State information can include: environmental knowledge, current position and velocity, future state estimates, what task is currently being performed, what resources are ne ...
