The objectives for this Phase II effort follow logically from the Phase I proposal and the ground work laid in Phase I. The overarching goal is to prove a radically different approach to sensor packaging which offers a quantum leap in performance, cost reduction and manufacturability improvement. Preliminary testing results from Phase I indicate that the alternative technical approach to telemetry ...

3 Phoenix, Inc. (3Pi) plans to continue development of a field-deployable RF over Fiber (RFoF) distribution system that consists of both high-frequency RF optical channels and bi-directional digital channels providing telemetry and data-fusion capability. The development will be focused on the implementation of a high-capacity, high frequency capability necessary for the Navy"s radar and communica ...

The goal of this SBIR is to develop technologies that will segregate data of various security classification levels using approved hardware and software techniques and simplify data access and usage for the sailor. This effort is designed to increase the productivity of the user by removing or automating the barriers currently involved with accessing data at different classification levels simulta ...

Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI) proposes to design, fabricate, and deliver two fully operational prototype total field scalar magnetometers with size, weight, and power specifications consistent with anti-submarine warfare (ASW) applications. The Phase II development program will extend the successful Phase I laboratory proof of concept to combine optical pumping of alkali atoms with sensitive absorp ...

One of the key challenges for Navy acquisition personnel (sponsors and program managers) is to track capabilities from the Research and Development (R & D) stage to deployment of a capability into the fleet to ensure the Navy is meeting current and future threats while filling the gaps in capabilities. SimVentions proposes a computerized tool that can help manage the interconnected levels of infor ...

The Naval Air Command performs a wide variety of sophisticated and time-consuming calculations in the service of repairing fighter jets and other high-end equipment. These calculations are developed by specialists at some expense and time. This SBIR concerns an effort to extract more value from the intellectual capital contained in these calculations, deploy them to a broader spectrum of users, an ...

Our Context-Aware Multiple Objective Planning (CMOP) is focused on the expansion and refinement of the mission planning capability in order to more fully support the capabilities required by Under Sea Warfare Decision Support System (USW-DSS). This includes expanding the spatial-temporal and semantic reasoning capability to dynamically determine objective function relevance to the current mission ...

Modus Operandi proposes the development of WISER (Wiki for Intelligent Semantic Event Reporting), an innovative semantic wiki framework for alerting warfighters of significant events and changing conditions relevant to their missions. Intelligence analysis of unstructured intelligence, particularly textual reports, is a very time-consuming process. The Marine Corps'S & T Strategic goal for i ...

MANEUVER is a focused, applied research effort that combines cutting edge biological and engineering techniques to provide a basis for advanced hydrodynamic control surfaces design for unsteady conditions and includes quantitative and qualitative evaluation of the technology as related to Navy Submarines, UUVs, and surface vessels. Empirical testing on a free-swimming vehicle is necessary for maki ...

Under the Phase II program we will develop and demonstrate a wide band automated handheld sonar acoustic intercept system for divers. The Phase II system will automatically detect and classify active sonar emissions and will alert the diver when threat sonars have been detected. We will provide the diver a bearing to the source transmission and also provide him with a threat zone which must not be ...
