Long-duration wide-area surveillance missions increasingly are space-based. MEO orbits offer space-based radar systems more time on station, but require very large array apertures on the order of 100m in diameter. Achieving larger apertures with smaller, lighter launch packages and stable on-orbit pointing is a challenge that E-Textiles promises to meet. Textile processes can be used to achieve a ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Improved understanding of the role of growth factors as biochemical mediators of wound healing has paved the way for a new family of bioactive therapeutic products to expedite wound healing. Delivery of growth factors ( recombinant or as autologous platelets) has emerged as a possible commercial opportunity for improving the clinical outcomes of soft, bone, and ...

For Phase II, Kutta proposes their Autonomous Multi-Mission Planner and Controller Tool (AMMPACT) solution to produce a lightweight, modular, ruggedized heterogeneous unmanned vehicle controller. The AMMPACT product goal is to assist the Army with increasing the lethality and survivability of the warfighters while reducing the amount of equipment required to be carried. Kutta’s AMMPACT product ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): In this translational SBIR program, we will develop a totally implantable, wireless, subdural electrode grid for short-term cortical EEG monitoring (less than 30 days). This device will be based upon novel manufacturin g processes that will allow synthesis of the wireless implants with integrated electronics at low cost and prices that are competitive with exi ...

DESCRIPTION provided by applicant In spite of remarkable progress in management of rheumatoid arthritis RA a devastating autoimmune disease that affects million Americans causing chronic inflammation of joints and surrounding tissues the gap of unmet needs in this therapeutic field remains wide open First of all almost of the patients do not respond adequately to the most advanced ...

An eye-safe, multispectral cross-track scan subsystem with a large receiver aperture and a narrow FOV is proposed for the NASA Cloud Physics Lidar (CPL) to increase the horizontal scan area coverage. The /-14 degree cross-track scan capability will cover /- 5 km from nadir at a 20 km altitude. The cross-track scanner uses a bidirectional scan pattern, which collects 10,000 data points per cross ...

The ability to accurately and covertly deliver light weight payloads from small aircraft redefines the way the US DOD performs air drop operations. The ability to emplace intelligent smart munitions, leaflets or light weight resupply bundles has bever been done before. Through this SBIR STARA will enhance its proven Mosquito 2 guided parachute system to create a dynamic, scalable guided parachut ...
