To address the Navy’s need for smart, configurable, aircraft electrical monitoring, management, and protection, Physical Optics Corporation (POC) proposes to develop a new Advanced Avionics Electrical Load Manager (AVALON). It is based on a new combination of COTS SoC FPGAs, power monitoring and control electronics, and surge protection hardware. Specifically, the innovation is a first of its ki ...

One of the most challenging tasks for a naval aviator is to land a rotorcraft on a ship, the dynamic interface task. The pilot experiences variable wind environments, often degraded visual conditions, and a landing area that is moving in response to sea state. Creating a representative simulator-based testing and training environment for dynamic interface has also proven challenging. While existin ...

We propose to develop an innovative open architecture for the semi-autonomous command and control (C2) of teaming Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS). The proposed architecture, based upon Toyon’s Decentralized Asset Management system, supports both centralized and decentralized fusion and control autonomy solutions as well as hybrids approaches. Leveraging STANAG-4586, TCP/IP, UPD, Google™ protob ...

Mine countermeasures is an increasingly important problem, with active SONAR systems being the lead technology for detecting surface and volume mines. Current Navy Minehunting sonar systems consist of multiple independently developed sensors installed on the same towed sensor platform, where the individual data processing streams have left performance gaps in the overall operational utility. Aretà ...

PRESENTLY THERE ARE MANY PROBLEMS WITH THE AVAILABLE IN THE MARKET. THIS RESEARCH PROJECT PROPOSES A VLSI PACKAGING SYSTEM WHICH CAN PROVIDE ENHANCED THERMAL MANAGEMENT BECAUSE OF THE USE OF SPUTTERED ALUMINUM NITRIDE, COPPER CLAD INVAR CORE MATERIAL IN THE SUBSTRATE AND TAB TECHNOLOGY. THE PACKAGING SYSTEM ALSO ENHANCES THE ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE VLSI DEVICES BECAUSE OF AN INTEGRATED D ...

To address the Navy need for a novel virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and/or mixed reality (MR) headset equivalent of advanced flight simulator display systems, Intellisense Systems, Inc. (ISI) proposes to develop a new Advanced Wide-Angle Augmented-Reality Headset Simulator Display (AWARE-HSD) based on an innovative integration of a wide field-of-view (FOV) aplanatic reflective colli ...

AS NUCLEAR PLANTS GROW OLDER, ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS MAY AFFECT THE PERFORMANCE OF PLANT CONCRETE AND STEEL STRUCTURES. WE PROPOSE TO DEVELOP A STRATEGY WHICH CAN BE APPLIED TO CONCRETE STRUCTURES. IT WILL BE DIRECTED TOWARDSTHE DEVELOPMENT OF METHODS TO ANALYZE AND UNDERSTAND AGING EFFECTS, INCLUDING THE COMBINED EFFECTS OF TIME, TEMPERATURE, RADIATION, HUMIDITY, STRESS, CHEMICAL ENVIRONMENT AN ...
