The ADYB Team, with its company, ADYB Engineered for life Inc. Are the developer and producer of the high performance ceramic armor systems. These ballistic protection panels are 70% lighter in weight than steel while providing significant weight and performance advantages over currently available ceramic and composite armor technology.

This SBIR Phase I proposal proposes to develop a versatile ballistic-proof laser eye protection (LEP) device which can be integrated with any currently fielded magnified optics (i.e., M145 MGO, M150 RCO, M151 SSS, etc.), and easily modifiable to integrate with future optical systems. The proposed device is made from a novel quasi-solid-state material composite consisting of micro-size liquid dropl ...

Structural proteins hold great promise to provide a broad range of DoD national security solutions. Squid ring teeth (SRT) is a structural protein extracted from tentacles of squid suction cups, which exhibits an unusual and reversible transition from a solid to a melt (thermoplastic), and can be thermally shaped into any 3D geometry (e.g. fibers, colloids, and thin films).

The objective of this project is to develop novel wireless methods and related devices for pre-fire powering of munitions capacitors and/or super-capacitors and establishing one-way or two-way data transfer link to load firing information as well as health monitoring and the like. In the proposed novel concepts, the means of transferring power into the munitions housing as well as establishing dat ...

ABSTRACT: Autonomous vehicles lack a standardized mechanism for seamless cross-platform sharing of testing frameworks and evaluations of basic tasks. The ability to execute common tests on various hardware platforms is essential in order to be able to e

As supply chains expand globally, there is a growing risk that computer systems may contain counterfeit hardware components. For subverting trust, a malicious hardware component could automatically identify and exfiltrate sensitive computation and data du

The feasibility of three different approaches to achieving the desired capability shall be studied during Phase I. (1.) Utilization of silicon MEMS resonators, incorporated into a MEMS based oscillator along with MEMS based accelerometers for active vibration compensation shall be investigated (2.) Utilization of a temperature controlled quartz resonator, electrostatically levitated in order to ...

ARTEMIS proposes to develop a multi-band L- and Ka-band SAR (KaLSAR) based off decades of radar design experience including the SlimSAR multi-band SAR and high profile SAR programs, such as the U2, Global Hawk, and ASTOR. The KaLSAR will incorporate proprietary knowledge for multi-band SAR design, operations, and experience to quickly design an L- and Ka-band SAR for use on the Shadow or other air ...

Treatment of burn patients with extensive burns (i.e., total body surface area TBSA>20%) is very challenging. Early fluid resuscitation is critical for burn patients and studies show an association between delayed or inadequate fluid resuscitation following burn injury and morbidity and mortality. Acute burns are frequently encountered in combat casualty care as well as in civilian patients. Minim ...

Military operating have increasing demand for battery power source in a wide variety of applications for communications, high-power weapons and vehicle applications. There is a huge imbalance between battery development and power requirement by the military. Lead acid battery because of its low cost, safety and high level of recycleability is still holding the dominant share in the military as wel ...
