This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II project will advance full-field, three-dimensional image correlation measurement technology to a level far beyond the current state-of-the-art. The research will produce a prototype commercial measurement system that will present a cost effective solution to a wide range of deformation measurement problems. The four areas of research for this ...

The objective of this SBIR effort is to develop and demonstrate the technical feasibility of an improved ultra wideband antenna element technology suitable for both receive and transmit functions. The end goal is to significantly extend the currentstate-of-the-art in ultra wideband phased array and individual antenna technology, both from a performance as well as from a practical implementation s ...

The current antennas of choice for earth stations are parabolic reflector antennas such as those used for tracking telemetry and control (TT&C) for the AFSCN. These antennas are required to have horizon-to-horizon, full-hemispherical coverage and oftenseveral antennas are required at each remote tracking station site. A single active hemispherical phased array antenna composed of flat panel suba ...

The Simulated PNVG project will develop a proof of concept helmet mounted display system that will simulate the current Panoramic Night Vision Goggle (PNVG) system. The prototype system will preserve the form, fit and function associated with the currentPNVG using available display technology. The selected display technology for the simulated PNVG will integrate into the PNVG so as to preserve t ...

In Phase I, Conducting Materials Corp, (CMC) proposed to fabricate stabilized nanoscale Li-Al ally particles and to understand their kinetic behavior by theoretical modeling. The unique properties of nano Li-Al alloy particles would increase energy outputon explosion as it will react completely and improve the burn rate. CMC fabricated nano particles of Li-Al alloy, stabilized and characterized ...

This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project seeks to develop a new means of caring for patina-covered copper and bronze outdoor statues, sculptures, and other structures, by developing Electrochemical Brush Patination (EBP). If successful, this technique will allow conservators and others responsible for the care of patinized objects to repair small localized areas of damage to ...

Dakota Technologies, Inc. (DTI), has demonstrated successfully key technologies used in the operation of a miniature gas chromatograph (GC) that fits inside a push rod for field screening and quantification of subsurface volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The GC is soft-pushed (no percussion) into the earth and uses a heated microporous inlet membrane on the side of the probe to transfer VOCs from ...
