CCRIs Phase I research efforts on Modeling and Prediction of Asymmetric Threat Learning Processes have shown the potential for learning models to improve predictive accuracy. The methodology developed proved to be robust and provides improvements in prediction, even when parameter estimation for the structural equation models was not significant. The Phase I results suggest that the development o ...

The Flight Deck Cranial (FDC), a new helmet design for USN maintainers working on carrier flight decks, is being developed under SBIR funding. The FDC acquisition program includes KPP’s for head impact protection, hearing protection and stable integration to NVG equipment. Adaptive Technologies, Inc. is leveraging its ongoing development of extreme noise hearing protection and communication solu ...

The process of designing and evaluating advanced aircraft coatings can be made more efficient, more robust, and less expensive through application of highly accurate and flexible computer models. The General Scattered Light (GSL) model is such a signature analysis tool, but its potential is difficult to access by untrained or infrequent users, seriously limiting its value. We propose to overcome t ...

Under Phase I, the team of 3 Phoenix, Inc. and Northrop Grumman Corporation developed and evaluated technology that can provide a substantial performance improvement to the problem of clutter management for radar periscope detection and discrimination applications. The proposed technology includes algorithms and techniques to perform detection of targets in heavy clutter, algorithms for extracting ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Ischemic ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a contributing cause to more than half of the 300,000 sudden cardiac deaths that occur annually in the United States. Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) are the stand ard therapy but they are expensive the total cost of an ICD implant approaches 50,000 and the United States spends more than 2.2B on these im ...

WORLD-WIDE WIND VELOCITY, BOTH SPEED AND DIRECTION, FROM THE GROUND THROUGH 50,000 FT. ALTITUDE CAN BE ACCURATELY MEASURED USING A SMALL SPACE-BASED PAYLOAD. THE PROPOW=SED PROJECT WILL DEMONSTRATE THAT RECENT DEVELOPED LASER, DETECTOR AND SPACECRAFT TECHNOLOGIES CAN BE EXPLOITED AND INTEGRATED INTO A SMALL, LOW COST, SPACE-BASED WIND MAPPING SYSTEM WHICH CAN BE CONFIGURED EITHER AS A MODULE AVOAR ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The NIH Roadmap recognizes the need for system-level, multidisciplinary research to successfully fight diseases such as cancer. However, collecting, integrating, and analyzing heterogeneous sets of data represent a subs tantial undertaking, both technical and managerial, that requires resources not available to most investigators. As the field continues to move ...

The system discussed in this proposal aims to overcome the complexity of the tag-out process execution by bringing technical drawings to life with supplementary metadata. This new information will include the identifying information for components on the drawing, and also the relationships between them. Consequently, generating a new tag-out becomes a visually guided process where selecting indi ...
