Award Data

Electro-optical infrared and long wavelength infrared detectors and sensors are increasingly important for the Chemical/Biological Defense community. Solid-state optical cooler materials are in demand for replacing mechanical closed cycle coolers used in current LWIR standoff sensors to achieve cryogenic temperatures. Recent advances in optical cooling of rare-earth doped materials are pointing to ...

Thegoal is to develop asoftwaretool that implementsa novelapproach applicableto fitgeneral pharmacologic, toxicology, or other biomedical data, that mayexhibita non-monotonic dose-responserelationship for which thecurrent parametricmodels fail. Thesoftwareexplores dose-responserelationships using both monotonicand non-monotonicmodels,and estimates theassociated doseresponsecurves,which can further ...

Tiger Tech Solutions, Inc. has developed a unique professional quality biomedical wearable monitoring system. The consumer-oriented devices available on the market today are not suitable for the needs of the warfighter. The Tiger Tech Warfighter Monitor (

Problem: Currently available resuscitation fluids have been shown to induce detrimental effects on trauma outcomes. Objective: The objective of this proposal is to use the data from the successful Phase 1 studies to guide the continued development and te

SIMETRI’s effort to design, develop, and commercialize the Joint Articulation and Reduction Simulator (JAARS) integrates existing commercial manikin technology, presents multiple dislocation scenarios, and makes use of a modular design that includes Comme

Service members are exposed to high noise environments on a daily basis. Aviation, mechanized, light and armored units are all exposed to environments well in excess of the permissible noise levels. In aviation alone, flight crews spend a majority of thei

The proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) presents a serious security threat to U.S. and allied personnel around the world. Military personnel and first responders must be prepared to operate under a wide range of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear (CBRN) threats. Commercially available CBRN protective suits are bulky offering little dexterity to the wearer, therefore new st ...

In response to the defined need for minimizing the carry weight of combat teams while retaining capability, Luna Innovations is proposing the development of a stable formulation of atropine and scopolamine for use in an autoinjector to combat nerve agent intoxication. The combined formulation of atropine and scopolamine will allow for better treatment with more physiological coverage within the hu ...

Luna Innovations is addressing the need to develop novel fluid repellent textile treatments for military uniforms that will repel and actively decontaminate chemical and biological warfare agents (CBWA). There have been recent significant advances in textile treatments that have demonstrated water, oil and chemical agent resistance that are superior to Quarpel repellent treatments currently used o ...
