"This research proposal seeks to continue the refinement, development and commercialization of a lightweight medical equipment and supplies module for the treatment of trauma patients. It consists of a platform with interlocking and interchangeablefunctional modules, or their equivalent, and attaches to, or detaches from, a standard military stretcher (litter) without tools and with attendant med ...

Previous cognitive performance batteries have been based on diverse theoretical underpinnings. Such batteries either overlap cognitive functions or fail to consider warfighter cognitive skills that are critical to mission success. In Phase I of thisSBIR, NTI surveyed current models of cognition and test batteries, and specified a test battery development approach that encompasses behavioral and ...

The Phase II effort builds on Phase I. Phase II starts with an integrated product and process design and engineering analysis of the baseline structure described in the Phase I report and variants that may reduce cost and risk. The emphasis is on use ofnonlinear FEA with continuum analysis to handle stiffeners, window frames, and connectors. After review and approval by SOCOM, the design is fab ...

The objective of this Phase II Fast Track project is to deliver a validated commercial PC-based ureteroscopic endoscopic surgical simulation training system for military and civilian health care professionals. This project will transform the existingsimulator into the most effective training tool available, capable of training military and civilian health professionals to perform numerous procedur ...

The nutritional health of field personnel deployed for extended periods is a long-standing problem critical to military troop performance and readiness. The combination of extraordinary physical stresses and the limited provisions carried by militaryfield personnel result in large caloric imbalances. Personnel may experience: loss of strength and decreased endurance; loss of motivation and decr ...

Traditionally the Air Force Special Operations Forces (AFSOF) physically measures assault zone characteristics such as physical dimensions, magnetic orientation, coordinates, obstacles, elevation, weight-bearing capacity of the soil, soil composition,surface tolerances, clearances, and roughness, terminal navigation aid suitability, etc. It is labor intensive and the operator would be exposed to t ...

Small satellites have proven capable and cost effective, and innovative payloads and technologies will expand the mission space that CubeSats can support. ATA proposes to build a CubeSat-sized laser communications prototype payload, adapting high photon efficiency optical communications techniques to achieve data transfer rates up to 100 mega-bits per second (Mbps) with the small apertures require ...

MaXentric proposes the GAU2x2 wideband power amplifier system. The design combines MaXentric’s wideband RF PA technology with advanced digital signal processing in a single small footprint package. This tight integration is made possible through the extremely high efficiency and low power dissipation. Since very little power is dissipated as heat, the package and heat sink size can be minimized. ...
