Shelter enclosures for military working dogs in the event of a CB attack is a technology gap identified by the Joint Requirements Office. Important parameters to consider in the design of protective enclosures include low weight and size to minimize transport requirements; rapid setup; and accommodation of canine physiological and psychological comfort needs while providing protection against CB ...

Our objective is to develop a novel micropower source, microsensor, and communication chip for integration with an insect, thereby delivering a state-of-the-art unmanned chemical detection device. The proposed biological fuel cell (Bio-FC) will leverage ongoing research at CFDRC and provide a compact/lightweight power supply, for mounting on numerous types of insects and producing necessary power ...

This Phase I SBIR proposal presents the Torch Technologies approach for the development of advanced, innovative, robust real-time algorithms for the integration of passive and active electro-optical sensor detections and identification information. In our proposal, we detail our ideas regarding the optimal fusion of Chemical Warfare (CW) agent sensor data within the innovative data fusion archite ...
