Industrial Microbes is developing a green fermentation platform to replace carbon-emitting petrochemical production with newer methods that build chemicals out of methane and carbon dioxide.Chemical production is a major source of carbon pollution, responsible for 18% of direct industrialemissions. Our innovation is an engineered microbe that can consume carbon dioxide and methane and produce a ch ...

To address the Chemical and Biological Defense programs (CBDs) need for medical countermeasures against mycotoxin intoxication, PhysicalOptics Corporation (POC) proposes to develop a new Mycotoxin Neutralization Treatment (MyNT). This proposed solution is based on neutralizingmycotoxin from its deleterious effects by acting on multiple levels of mycotoxin metabolism through the novel combination o ...

San Diego Composites, Inc. (SDC) is developing the Reinforced Additively Manufactured Compression Assisted Molding (RAMCAM) pod to produce on-demand, corrosion resistant, aluminum and stainless steel equivalent parts in less than three days. RAMCAM combines the advantageous 2 day lead time of custom parts produced by 3D printing with the 1 day forging of structural parts via composite compression ...

As a foundational component of a Layered Sensing architecture, Toyon proposes to develop a Multi-Modal Fusion Module (M2FM) capable ofconfirming detections from Chemical, Biological and Radiological (CBR) sensing networks by fusing together information from other (non-CBR)sensors. The module will provide information to assist operators in confirming an initial CBR detection or rejecting it as a fa ...

To address CBDs need for development of analytical approaches to fuse sensor data from multiple modalities to provide common operationalpictures in threat environments, Physical Optics Corporation (POC) proposes to develop a Wavelet-based Approach for Signal Processing andAnalysis (WASP). WASP is based on novel application of wavelet-based analysis to multimodel, multidimensional data available fr ...
