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 ...

ABSTRACT:Using lasers as signal carriers, FSO laser communications (Laser-Com) can provide a line-of-sight, wireless, high-bandwidth, communication link between remote sites. Because of the reduced scattering, long-wavelength infrared (LWIR) 8 13 um radiation possesses significantly better all-weather transmission than the shorter wavelengths in use today. The superior transmission through common ...

ABSTRACT:nou Systems proposes an innovative analysis and test methodology for testing space-based high-resolution wide field-of-view (WFOV) focal plane arrays (FPAs). Current space sensor test facilities are incapable of fully testing state-of-the-art high-resolution WFOV sensors without infrastructure modifications. The test methodology described in this proposal focuses on testing only a subset ...

ABSTRACT: In Air-Force landing gear systems, high strength CuBe alloys are used in bushing applications where high wear resistance and strength is critical. Beryllium can be toxic and presents health concerns; removal from DoD weapons systems is likely, and the need for Be-free replacement materials is critical. QuesTek Innovations, a leader in the field of Integrated Computational Materials Engin ...

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 ...

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+ ...

A SIMULATION APPROACH IS PROPOSED TO DETERMINE THE DEGRADING EFFECTS OF MICROJAMMERS, POSITIONED IN THE GROUND, ON ABM RADARS. UNIQUE FEATURES OF THE PROPOSED WORK INCLUDE THE USE OF GAUSSIAN FIELD EXPAN-SIONS TO DESCRIBE NEAR/FRESNEL/FAR FIELD DISTRIBUTIONS OR PATTERNS. ALSO UNIQUE IS THE DESCRIPTION OF IRREGULAR TERRAIN FEATURES AND RESULTING SCATTERED SIGNALS IN TERMS OF FRACTAL MATHEMATICAL MO ...

We propose enhancement to our commercially available NowSecure automated mobile app vetting software to support Department of Defense (DoD) security vetting requirements, notably the NIAP Protection Profile for Application Software Version 1.2. By leveraging the automation of our platform and tailoring it for DoD-specific requirements, we can significantly streamline the mobile app certification p ...
