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 ...

Nanohmics designed and will fabricate a ruggedized Blood and Pharmaceutical Cooling and Storage system (BPCS) that meets current and future performance requirements for temperature selection and energy efficiency using several building block technologies that outperform the design of the currently used portable refrigeration system.This is accomplished by employing a refrigeration technology that ...

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 ...

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.

There is a need to remotely detect, collect, and evaluate physiological signals of interest. Applications and concepts-of-operations (CONOPs) that would benefit from this capability include, but are not limited to: building-clearing, warfighter health monitoring or battle damage assessment and triage, situational awareness and assessment. Existing micro-impulse radar (MIR) and ultra-wideband (U\1\ ...

The modern operator is expected to perform an increasingly diverse set of tasks; the associated growth in basic and mission-specific loads places a burden on personnel, reducing agility and compromising combat effectiveness. SOCOM seeks a lightweight, compact stabilization solution for weapons, optics, and laser target designators. An ideal stabilization solution would permit special operators to ...

U.S. SOCOM requires small, lightweight, concealable stabilization devices for target designators, cameras, and other imagers. A fieldable solution must be rugged, fold into a very small form factor, and weigh less than one pound. Joint Tactical Air Controller (JTAC) missions have experienced reduced targeting capabilities as current tripods are often omitted from mission equipment due to excessi ...

The proposed Improved Tactical Airborne Gimbal System (ITAGS) provides airborne imaging capability from a lightweight 15" ball gimbal. The imaging performance achieved was previously only available with larger gimbals. IJK Controls innovative gimbal mechanism and accompanying stabilization controller are tightly integrated with best-in-class optics and detectors.
