Researchers will conduct a pilot study with a socio-economically and diverse sample of at least 500 high school students who will test the prototype ROI tool. The researchers will examine the feasibility and usability of the prototype, whether ROI information increases search and discovery for educational opportunities; whether having ROI information increases the likelihood of click-through rates ...

In this SBIR, we will leverage our long experience in ARAIM and in spoofing detection techniques to develop ARAIM+: an improved ARAIM system that also detects GNSS-wide intentional simultaneous faults and spoofing attacks. The main objective of the proposed Phase-I effort is to design, simulate, and prototype ARAIM+ to meet stringent performance requirements with limited computer resources. ARAIM+ ...

NoMo Diagnostics is developing the first embedded brainwave sensor system for real-time concussion detection addressing a significant unmet medical need for contact sport athletes and military personnel. Sport-related concussion is a common mild traumatic brain injury affecting roughly 1,200,000 Americans annually yet only 300,000 are diagnosed. Depending on the sport, it is estimated for every 1 ...

Identify technical feasibility, financial sustainability and defense need for applying 300 Below's commercialized cryogenic treatment process to Air Force weapons platforms, including aircraft and ground vehicles, to increase accuracy of firearms 50%, double the life of gun barrels, help sustain high cyclic rates on weapons, and ensure easier cleaning and maintenance of firearms while reducing cor ...

Improved cockpit illumination has been identified as an area of interest during discussions with key personnel across United States Air Force and Navy Aviation communities. Current cockpit lighting systems are expensive and require the use of a lip-actuator to illuminate an NVIS-compatible light emitting diode (LED) located on a microphone boom or on the oxygen mask, which is attached to the fligh ...

Virtual reality (VR) technology can revolutionize military aircrew and pilot training by accurately simulating task performance in a high-fidelity and multisensory virtual environment at significantly lower cost than traditional simulators. User interaction must be intuitive and natural, however, so aviators can “train as they fight,� while avoiding frustration. Groups within the Air ...

This proposal seeks to demonstrate the feasibility of a virtual reality authoring platform that can deliver training modules for learners across the continuum of USAF skills. Content authoring in this tool does not require any programming expertise, and subject matter experts can create learning experiences by importing most digital files (2D and 3D). The learner then experiences a one-on-one expe ...

Jiobit provides a tracking device that is less than 1 cubic inch in volume and only 0.6 ounces in weight that can easily be attached to personnel or cargo. The device includes a GPS receiver, 3G/2G global cellular transceiver, BT/WIFI transceivers, and motion and altitude sensors. The device and related infrastructure use a patented technique termed "progressive beaconing" to save power, actively ...
