NextGen Federal Systems (NextGen), a Small Business Concern (SBC), is excited to propose a powerful software package, coupled database, and a machine-learning (ML) workflow to support streamlined evaluation and research-to-operations (R2O) of space weather ML models and techniques. In response to the NOAA Effect of Space Weather subtopic (NOAA SBIR 9.5), we propose the Machine Intelligence for Spa ...

We propose a high-impact innovation for weather forecasting that integrates global ensemble weather forecasts with an AI-driven post-processing model of extreme weather indices. This innovation will provide the basis for skillful probabilistic forecasts of compound extreme weather events at extended lead times. Extreme weather/climate events of relevance to electric utilities focused on in Phase I ...

This Small Business Technology Transfer Phase II effort aims to develop a fully integrated, modular human surrogate, a software suite, and wireless data transmission.  The main goals of the Phase II project will be to increase the biofidelity, modularity, and manufacturability of the low-cost, sensor-integrated surrogate developed in Phase I.  In Phase II, the prototype that was developed in Pha ...

Modern lithium ion batteries are known for their poor safety performance, with many reports of battery failure and fire having been reported. One of the major causes of battery fire is from the use of flammable solvents, such as organic carbonates, as the electrolyte. These hazards have long limited the usage of batteries in dangerous conditions, such as on the battlefield. To combat this issue, t ...

This Small Business Technology Transfer Phase I effort aims at the feasibility of developing a low-cost, modular human surrogate including a sensory system and organ models with integrated pressure sensors.  The proposed system will be utilized for evaluating personal protective equipment (PPE).  Current human surrogates are either costly or do not provide adequate pressure measurements. The pr ...

Biomason’s prototype MEDUSA dust abatement system provides a superior performing, logistically lean, and environmentally friendly solution for rapid dust suppression for VTOL operations in austere, forward operating positions. Moreover, base MEDUSA systems and processes may be adapted for utilization in multiple industrial sectors and serve several other key military and civilian use-cases - fro ...

Advanced Materials and Devices, Inc. (AMAD), in a 12-month TRL Booster Pilot effort, will move the development and manufacturing of a wearable, wireless, in-air and underwater sensor from TRL 5-6 to a TRL of 6-7. At the end of the TRL Booster Pilot effort, the wearable sensor will be ready for qualification testing and manufacturing via Phase III funding. At the end of the current Phase II effort ...
