AEDC needs a suite of testing approaches that will enable rapid, thorough calibration of large format imaging sensors (at least 4096x4096 pixels) with existing AEDC SSTF test equipment (scene projection and data acquisition). The methodology must extend to testing imaging sensors with field of view varying between one and 30 degrees without changes to optical hardware. The challenge is both to col ...

SpaceWorks proposes to continue development and advancement of its novel QuickShot trajectory optimization software suite. A number of new modeling capabilities of value when simulating advanced military systems will be implemented. Additionally, a variety of case studies and applications that will showcase and demonstrate utilization of these new features will be conducted.

UES has developed a suite of ultra-high temperature ceramic (UHTC) materials, produced using their novel “Top Downâ€Â process, that display an unusually attractive balance of properties, that include high strength/toughness and good oxidation/erosion resistance. These materials are very attractive for use in extreme environments, where high temperature resistance (>3400 °C [>6000Â� ...

MICA was selected and awarded to ARiA under SBIR Topic AF151-194, technically managed by AFRL/RITB with SAF/AQ-OTI as the sponsor organization. Under prior Phase I and II SBIR efforts ARiA developed, trained, and tested the Machine Interface for Contracting Assistance (MICA). MICA leverages academic and commercial-sector advances in cognitive-computing, deep learning, graph storage, informational ...

Current and incumbent material systems rely on specific materials for specific threat ranges. For example, multi-spectral protection relies on an aggregate of different material types that, when used in composite structures present ease-of-manufacturing, integration and thermally induced issues, such as problems caused by Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE). Because of these challenges, thereâ ...

The goal of this Phase II SBIR is to extract more information from existing submarine acoustic sensors through a highly innovative inter- and intra-sensor correlation algorithmic, in order to provide U.S. submarines with increased acoustic superiority over increasingly quiet adversaries. U.S. adversaries are continuously improving their acoustic quieting technologies through efforts such as marine ...

RwM Resilient takes Redwall Technologies’ commercially-available multi-level mobile security solution, Redwall Mobile (RwM), to a new level by layering resilience into its operation. RwM represents the best in class protection for operating systems like Android and provides our patent pending method of combining cryptographic and temporal separation, which may be the only certain way to securely ...

This Phase II proposal focuses on the Air-to-Air RCS/RF Verification Scenario as providing the highest return on investment from industrial commerce and for benefit to the DON for operational RCS/RF Verification. The overall objectives of the Phase II Base and Phase II Option programs is to exploit the extensive capabilities of STAR’s BlueMax G7 Extreme Instrumentation Radar while employing cust ...

The ultimate goal of this SBIR effort is to deliver improvements to existing Fleet electronic warfare support systems by using statistical learning techniques to aid in the classification and unique identification of modern radar emitters. Since software-defined and solid-state emitters do not have the analog features traditionally used for classification, we will use more abstract, but well-defin ...

SEA CORP will leverage the innovative technologies developed under the prior SBIR Phase II project and extend the Research & Development (R&D) activities to the development of critical submarine combat system payload integration efforts. In the previous effort, components were successfully developed facilitating integration of Improved Submarine Launched Mobile Mine (ISLMM) capability aboard subma ...
