Low Altitude Sensing Helmet -(LASH) is to provide for pilot night vision when using small non-military planes to operate using unimproved landing areas around the globe. LASH will use SWIR (Short Wave IR) and LWIR (Long Wave IR) technology sensors to provide improved night vision in specified conditions.

Ibis’ baseline design balances the competing demands of low cost and high performance. The proposed baseline allows for the incorporation of high-rate production technologies which also provide the most functional shapes, minimizing cost and maximizing performance. Ibis’ layout features a streamlined fuselage, high aspect ratio swept wings and non-foldable tail-planes which sum up to ...

Thelack of low cost,maintenance-free,easy-to-wear personal samplingtechnology hinders assessment ofchemicalexposuresespecially in deployed military populations.We are developing a silicone wristband for use as a passivemonitor forenvironmentalexposure. Silicone wristband personal dosimeters (PDs) are uniquein being ableto measure both volatile(VOCs) and semi-volatile(SVOCs)compounds,capturing bioa ...

The key opportunity Qualtech Systems, Inc. (QSI) is addressing with the proposed adaptation and deployment of TEAMS technology is towards improving the operational availability of complex mission-critical depot maintenance infrastructure equipment at the Warner-Robins Air Force Base (WRAFB), specifically at the Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex (WR-ALC). This will significantly improve the aircr ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this project is a vastly increased market for millimeter wave imaging products due to the disruptive price and performance of this camera. This sensor technology project will demonstrate the first cost-effective video-rate millimeter wave camera that can image and resolve moving objects from 5m to 3 miles away. Millimeter wave light is often used for secu ...

This SBIR Phase II project aims to develop a novel engineered microbiome as a potential therapeutic for a rare skin disease called Netherton syndrome. Netherton syndrome (NS) is a rare, severe skin disease with high mortality and few treatment options. This proposal aims to develop a new therapeutic for this disease, a microbe-based protein delivery system of LEKTI, the missing protein responsible ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II project is to provide accurate indoor location services to users via existing mobile electronic devices like smartphones and tablets. This technology will bring many of the applications powered by GPS, like navigation, tracking and location-based advertising to indoor markets. We propose using a hybr ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II project is to develop a tool to measure joint mobility. There are a large number of orthopedic injuries and a significant need to quantitatively assess and treat these injuries. An earlier attempt to address this market using a large, expensive, and cumbersome to use device developed in the 1980's is ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) project is establishment of sustainable, cost-effective technology to mitigate volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) in a variety of industrial settings by using photocatalysts to effectively destroy them. The technology is broadly applicable to VOC removal and is highly relevant to environments with low levels o ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) project includes advancement of the field of white biotechnology, which utilizes enzymes to create valuable industrial products. As biological molecules, enzymes are more difficult to manipulate than conventional chemicals and often need more extensive development before they can be adapted to industrial or p ...
