Award Data

The ubiquity of image sensors for data collection creates a glut of data, which leads to bottlenecks in the processing capabilities of modern systems. In order to process this data, meticulously labeled datasets are required and that must be reviewed by humans in order to guarantee state-of-the-art performance. In this effort we endeavor to create a system that can automatically exploit salient in ...

When there is a contested environment, and SOCOM needs no-compromise ultra-secure communications, the IERUS Technologies Low-SWaP Ultra-Secure Tactical OTM Communication System (LUTOCS) is there. Utilizing an open agile architecture based on software defined radio (SDR) technology to implement advanced software and hardware solutions, the system is tailored for optimal performance in dynamic situa ...

The proposal is to perform a feasibility study on the creation of an ultra-secure communications system with LPD / LPI and AJ, data rates above 1 Gbps, and SWAP low enough for man portable battery powered operation. This study will look at adaption commercial LEO backhaul waveforms to be ultra-secure, using sate of the art hardware like the Xilinx RF SoC and the Dujud 3D printed conformal phased a ...

In the pattern of life problem space, data is often represented via mathematical graphs, in which a variety of algorithms may be employed to conduct semi-autonomous analysis. While successful empirical application of graph-domain algorithms on ABI problems has been achieved, most of these algorithms require a tuning parameter, which is often set heuristically in real-world scenarios. Arete has dev ...

To address the Chemical and Biological Defense (CBD) agency’s need for a new deep learning (DL)-based threat detection solution that fuses imaging sensors and chemical/biological sensors to detect and locate concealed chemical threats, Intellisense Systems, Inc. (Intellisense) proposes development of a new Chemical-Imaging Registration and Multimodal Analysis (CIGMA) solution. CIGMA will compris ...

The Joint Project Manager for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Medical (JPM CBRN Medical) seeks to develop dermal dressing technologies that provide multiple advantages over current wound dressings for treating dermal injuries caused by sulfur mustard. Critical Innovations, Battelle's Biomedical Research Center, and NDA Partners, with consultants Captain David Tanen, MD, FAAEM, FACM ...

To meet CBD’s need for a multi-dose formulation of scopolamine hydrobromide trihydrite ChromoLogic proposes to develop a vial add-on containing a self-decontamination cap with a self-healing material to eliminate evaporation and contamination risks through needle punctures in the septum. CL will also perform forced degradation and stability tests with a panel of preservatives to select optimal p ...

The US requires standoff precision strike capabilities in GPS-denied and high threat environments. This includes fire-and-forget lock-after-launch vision-based guidance for SOPGM. Due to emerging threats, a paradigm shift is occurring in the way we gather intelligence, maintain surveillance, and perform reconnaissance. ISR platforms are evolving, and artificial intelligence is at the forefront of ...

This task seeks to develop advanced teaming via machine learning between small unmanned air systems and Non Line-of-Sight (NLOS) munitions in GPS denied Environments. Current precision targeting capabilities are robust to state errors from ISR targeting platforms and weapons systems seeking to passively acquire a target. Visual Based Navigation (VBN) provides required state information in GPS deni ...

To address the USSOCOM need for a transparent in-vehicle display screen, Intellisense Systems, Inc. (Intellisense) proposes to develop a new Transparent Armor Nanostructure Display (TAND) system to enhance crew situational awareness, reduce cognitive workload, and eliminate in-vehicle stand-alone displays. This compact transparent armor (TA) display system is based on the unique combination of a f ...
