As the DoD continues to develop applications backed by cloud-based data and enterprise infrastructures, remote-sites will require on-site data caches to permit operation during periods of disconnect from the enterprise.To address this challenge for SOCOMs Chimera system, Black River will develop a stand-alone Chimera system that is independent of Amazon cloud software; develop bi-directional data ...

Military divers are experiencing negative medical side effects from inhalation of cold air or mixed gas (HeO2) while diving with a closed-circuit breathing apparatus.Therefore, SOCOM is looking for an innovative device that will reheat a divers inspired breathing gas to prevent a diver from experiencing hypothermia.Paragon will apply relevant experience in the design and manufacturing of active an ...

VAWD has extensive experience developing technologies and products for Sense Through The Wall (STTW) and RF Penetration through materials. Based on our experience we believe that the RF spectrum is a natural fit to solve this problem. Therefore we have constrained our trade space for an optimized microwave technology solution.VAWD proposes techniques that will use Multi-Frequency discrimination in ...

Special Forces need a clear, timely understanding of their operational environment.Imagery from unmanned aerial vehicles can familiarize a warfighter with a location but simply looking at videos or still imagery can be confusing.What direction is the UAV looking fromWhich of many similar buildings is in viewIn intelligence, speed of collection and processing can be just as important as accuracy. 3 ...

Oceanit proposes to develop novel nutraceutical and/or pharmaceuticals to enhance important USSOCOM Multi-Purpose Canine (MPC) performance attributes that optimize their performance, improve recovery time when wounded and increase their survivability.

A technical approach is proposed to survey the industry for state of the art capabilities in terms of the SOCOM mission requirements described in the solicitation for the Group 2 Tactical ISR UAS. The results of the survey will select a configuration of potential candidate UAS that would meet the threshold and ultimately objective goals stated.

SOF tactical users lack a miniature threat warning receiver that permits them to monitor RF energy and exploit hostile wireless communications while on extended deployments that necessitate very low power budgets. Having this capability will save lives and enhance the probability of successful completion of dangerous missions. The purpose of this Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) Phase II ...

This effort will develop dual intensified/thermal infrared algorithms and hardware technology to detect, identify and track human individuals.

The GECO Payload Interface Master Module Phase I development approach capitalizes on both our telecom and defense electronic design experiences to provide SOCOM with an optimal PIMM design. GECO's research trade studies will allow us to deliver the best performance that commercial technologies can support and our design engineering experience will insure the optimal solution is fielded in a packa ...

The current project aims to demonstrate the feasibility of a compact, powerful, power-efficient lidar unit for wind profiling on board UAV's and other aircraft. The system leverages Oceanit's current development efforts building an eye-safe lidar for minute aerosol detection. A unique design provides a rugged system with no moving parts and little maintenance requirements. Efforts will include ...
