AURA – Ascertaining Un-Reported Affect
SBC: DEUMBRA, INC. Topic: SB101002Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITSs) functions as virtual tutors that adapt to student responses. Such ITSs, however, do not yield student learning improvements equivalent to students tutored by human instructors. Ascertaining Un-Reported Affect (AURA) is a closed-loop, platform-independent “front-end” for informing ITSs with near real-time inferences of student engagement and affect during lea ...

Software Architecture for Navigation Devices Enabling Flexible Addition of Aiding Sensors
SBC: 5-D SYSTEMS, INC. Topic: SB101011The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is seeking a software architecture that allows new and advanced navigation sensors to be integrated with an existing navigation system. To demonstrate this technology, DARPA desires a design for a personal navigator leveraging this technology that is capable of providing a location fix with an accuracy of 10 meters 3D rms. This navigator needs ...

Modeling, Design and Development of Micrometer Wave Energy Harvester Using Rectenna Arrays
SBC: COOLCAD ELECTRONICS, LLC Topic: SB092010We propose to directly harvest energy from infrared (3-14microns) radiation sources using micro-antennas coupled to rectifying diodes and storage capacitors. The antenna receives infrared electromagnetic radiation and the rectifier converts it to direct current which is then stored. Large numbers of these rectennas connected in a conformal, light-weight array should be able to harvest energy suffi ...

A Multimodel Imaging Device for Diagnosis of Traumatic Brain Injury
SBC: Imperium, Inc. Topic: SB092003Traumatic brain injury has been designated the “signature wound” of the Iraq war due to its prevalence. Over 43,000 cases of combat related TBI have been documented from 2003 through 2007. TBI is divided into two categories: primary and secondary. Primary injury in most cases is obvious. Secondary or closed brain injury however may exhibit no external markers and subtle symptoms. Current di ...

Massively Distributed Problem-Solving (MDPS)
SBC: MANAGEMENT SCIENCES INC Topic: SB093004We propose a unique system for massively distributed social problem-solving that will enable large groups of individuals to form solutions to complex, multi-factor problems. Our minimalist framework, called the ePluribus Solver, will leverage the viral nature of communication in existing social networks to engage individuals in the problem solving process and allow them to develop their own emerge ...

Compact photonic sensor system for rapid biological threat detection
SBC: Resonant Sensors Incorporated Topic: SB093010The objective of this work is development of a new sensor system to rapidly detect and diagnose biological threats to the public, including microbial and toxic agents. A unique, new photonic resonance sensor concept implemented with subwavelength waveguide gratings is applied to monitor each detection event in real-time. Due to inherent polarization diversity, multiple resonance peaks shift their ...

Multi-Material Structures
SBC: TEXAS RESEARCH INSTITUTE , AUSTIN, INC. Topic: SB093001The use of graphite fiber reinforced composite materials in Navy ship applications has a number of potential benefits that can be attributed to the material’s high specific strength and stiffness. However, graphite fiber can form a galvanic cell with the steel structure, especially at the joints between the composite and steel, promoting corrosion that degrades both the composite and the steel. ...

Visually Guided Robotic Hand / Eye Coordination
SBC: Traclabs Inc. Topic: SB092005There are many mundane tasks that humans – even children – perform easily, yet are unattainable by current robotic systems. These include dexterous manipulation in unstructured environments, where the exact location and characteristics of the objects are not known a priori, such as picking fruit or doing dishes. Recent years have seen many advances in both robotic manipulation and machine vis ...

Visually Guided Robotic Hand / Eye Coordination
SBC: VECNA TECHNOLOGIES, INC Topic: SB092005The term “robot,” coined by Karel Capek in the play R.U.R., implies “compulsory labor,” yet most mobile robots in existence today are only capable of the lightest of labor. Of course, a robot is just a pile of parts without the advanced perception, planning, and control systems needed to make it perform useful work reliably in an unstructured environment. When done correctly, however, it w ...

MobileTran: A Handheld Sign Translation Apps for Warfighters
SBC: LIMAGING LLC Topic: SB102002When the United States military commits to operations in foreign territories, it is important for soldiers to have the ability to understand textual information they encounter accurately and in a timely manner. For this SBIR Limaging proposes to develop a document and sign translation system that can be operated by a novice user to obtain and interpret documents and signs in foreign languages, ...
