The U.S. Army seeks to support Mission Commander (MC) situational awareness (SA) and decision-making by developing 3D presentation software, fusing full-motion video (FMV) and related metadata into a unified, high-utility, display.Our Phase I combined information from multiple sensors to generate a single three-dimensional (i.e., 3D) visual representation of the battlefield using innovative probab ...

Bennett Advanced Research proposes to create a system will that will allow a munition to be created at essentially any location that the US Army requires.

Current shaped charge (SC) warheads and explosively formed penetrators (EFPs) are designed to focus large amounts of high-velocity mass on relatively small areas.While this makes possible the perforation of very thick armor, a side effect is that the warheads generally produce limited post-armor damage.This is particularly true in the case of light armored vehicles, where the penetration capabilit ...

Corvid utilizes a high fidelity computational physics (HFCP) development approach to improve system survivability, leveraging predictive modeling and simulation to develop energy absorbing (EA) technologies. Highly resolved meshed models, sophisticated non-linear strength and failure constitutive models, a massively scalable physics solver, and high performance computing (HPC) resources are brough ...

Vadum and North Carolina State University (NCSU) will develop a Vibration-ENhanced Underground Sensing (VENUS) system that delivers improved target discrimination and classification with reduced False Alarm Rate (FAR) for shallow buried (up to 6) low-metal-content (LMC) landmine detection. This technology excites mechanical vibrations in landmines and uses robust, high-resolution digital signal pr ...

Kyma Technologies, the leading domestic supplier of single crystal nitride semiconductor substrate materials, and Michigan State University (MSU), a leading developer of electronic grade diamond materials, are teamed together to develop the first domestic supply of large area electronic grade single crystal diamond wafers. The technical approach is based on a novel tiled or mosaic substrate fabric ...

The overall objective of the proposed work is to achieve a broad range of electrical properties in AlGaN not available today. The primary focus of this work will be enabling technology for low (1019 cm-3) doping concentrations in AlGaN, which are the main obstacles in the development of various new technologies based on this material, the work will benefit also the mid-range of doping concentratio ...

Corvid Technologies proposes to develop a robust, fast running algorithm to calculate strategies for cooperative missile guidance of interceptors against multiple threats. These strategizes will determine the number of interceptors to be launched, their launch times, which threats they will engage, and will coordinate their flight paths to enhance lethality and lower cost. This algorithm will be d ...

The lack of potable water is widespread. The Army has portable seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) desalination systems, however they are bulky, truck portable, energy expensive, and too large a scale for small unit level or the individual soldier.There is a need for a small scale, man-portableSWRO units. One impediment to creating this is the energy demands for SWRO systems. Large scale systems have ...

Kyma Technologies, Inc., the leading domestic supplier of single crystal nitride semiconductor substrate materials, and MSU-Fraunhofer CCD, the leading domestic developer of electronic grade diamond materials, are teamed together on Army Research Laboratory SBIR A16-021 to develop the first domestic supply of large area electronic grade single crystal diamond wafers. Our approach to achieve large ...
