"BioSentient Corporation proposes the use of a proven method of non-pharmacologic physiologic self-regulation to delay the onset and decrease the symptoms of motion sickness and mitigate any concomitant cognitive degradation. The method, NASA patentedAutogenic Feedback Training Exercise-- Method & System (AFTE - M&S), has been shown to significantly improve performance on Coriolis Sickness Susce ...

The capability to transmit digitized reports to rear echelon forces during an ongoing battle is a critical command and control component. However, projections of the amount of digital traffic over transmissions links raise the distinct possibility that the demand for digital information tranmitted across the battlefield will outstrip channel capacity. Being able to reduce the quantity of traffic ...

"Improving responsiveness requires continual innovation, and technology has created the opportunity to use knowledge discovery for innovation and continual improvement in supply chain logistics. DMLSS can use knowledge discovery to increase medicallogistics support effectiveness while reducing costs in two distinct environments: Military Treatment Facilities (MTFs) and deployed theater forces. The ...

"We propose to develop, build, and validate a Military Health Data Mining Algorithms Library (M-HDML), a set of reusable and extendible knowledge analysis software templates that facilitate the medical knowledge discovery process. Apart from delivering"data-driven" knowledge that is useful from a medical diagnostic/prognostic standpoint, the developed infrastructure would ultimately provide plann ...

"Small infantry unit situational awareness (SA) can be observed, inferred, and measured during virtual simulations using a variety of non-intrusive tools and techniques. Dismounted infantry SA implies that the small unit leader and his team understand themission objectives and their specific roles and responsibilities to work together toward successful mission completion. They perceive the environ ...

This Small Business Innovation Research Phase I proposal will lead to the development of a sensor for detection of the early onset of ketosis by breath acetone measurements. The device will be hand-held, lightweight, and battery-powered. Near-infrareddiode laser measurement of a gas-solid reaction product of acetone will afford increased sensitivity. The sensor will provide a rapid measurement ...

"SPEC has developed a prototype fluorescent corrosion indicator (FCI) system that shows tremendous promise in revealing corrosion beneath a specially prepared coating before any visible damage has appeared on the surface of the coating itself. Thisremarkable early warning system is based on the use of a fluorescent indicator that is distributed throughout the paint. The indicator is quenched by th ...
