Award Data

Research conducted in Phase I identified a range of data sources providing vehicle related information to consumers shopping around or interested in knowing more about vehicles. Majority of the commercial data sources focused on vehicle features, new/used/CPO pricing, and vehicles listings. Such data sources lacked safety as their central focus, which is a concern for U.S. Department of Transporta ...

There are over 123 UH-1Y aircraft in service today, each equipped with five internal fuel cells, with an average cost of $15k per fuel cell. The current supply chain for UH-1Y fuel cells is not able to meet delivery nor quality requirements, which has resulted in a significant force readiness issue. With this SBIR Phase II proposal, Response Technologies (RT) aims to: 1) “Phase I Qualify” a co ...

Nanoscale, material sensitive, imaging techniques are critical for progress in many disciplines as we learn to master science and technology at the smallest dimensions — on the nanometer to atomic-scale. However, progress in both science and technology is becoming increasingly limited by the constraints of current imaging techniques and metrologies. Fortunately, by combining coherent extreme UV ...

We present the design of a small, portable, microwave cold atomic clock that meets the frequency stability requirement of < 8X10-13 at 1 s averaging time and < 3X10-15 for an averaging time of 1 day. The entire clock is about the size of a desktop computer 18.75 ” X 14.75 ” X 8.77 ” (47.6 cm X 37.5 cm X 22.3 cm) and weighs 30.5 kg. The clock can run on both 100-240 VAC as well as +24 VDC. St ...

Response Technologies will attempt to build H-60 fuel cell prototypes and qualify to a portion of MIL-DTL-27422F’s Phase II performance testing criteria [Class B – Semi rigid or self-supporting fuel construction, Type I – Self-sealing, and Protection Level C – Full self-sealing against 50 caliber and partial self-sealing against 14.5 mm] . Response Technologies uses an additive manufacturi ...

Developing secure software is notoriously difficult, partially evidenced by the increasing trend in vulnerabilities disclosed per year. While significant effort has gone into developing tools and automated test frameworks, human behavioral aspects of the software development process have remained relatively unexplored. These behavioral aspects, such as relying on inexperienced developers or prolon ...

The proposal discusses the possible implementation of the high power density high voltage unit that can satisfy technical requirements of the unit defined in the DARPA SBIR Topic# SB171-010 (Ultra-Compact Power Conditioning System for High Power RF Transmitters). Paper summarizes the results of the work that was performed by CPE during Phase I in 2017. The electrical design of all critical power s ...

The DoD uses flexible fuel bladders in multiple air, ground, and sea vehicles because they: 1) easily fit into almost any space, 2) are corrosion resistant, and can often be self-sealing and explosion resistant, 3) allow for customized placement of fittings and connection points, and 4) these flexible tanks can collapse as they empty, thereby reducing the need for venting and minimizing sloshing a ...

ADA Technologies, Inc. (ADA) in partnership with Laser Marks, a laser systems integrator, has designed, developed (Phase I) and will fabricate a low-cost, automated, high-speed/high-throughput Li-ion electrode cutter capable of producing high quality electrodes in an additive manufacturing environment. Utilizing the latest in laser technology and scanning systems coupled with innovative design and ...

A high performance low cost upper stage and demonstration of a low cost engine with a recurring cost of $1 million delivered cost.
