Bio-Inspired Autonomous Vision
SBC: RPU TECHNOLOGY Topic: SB043039Vision sensors are an essential component of autonomous systems of all types, now receiving rapidly increasing attention (UAV, UGV, ATR etc). However physical vision systems that substitute for human vision in autonomous systems have very much less capability for the visual recognition tasks that must be performed. This research and development exploits the fact that, to a large extent, the super ...

CAD Tools for Clockless Circuit and System Design and Test
SBC: Orora Design Technologies, Inc. Topic: SB022045Asynchronous circuit design has the potential to offer orders of magnitude improvement in speed, power dissipation and EMI over synchronous circuit design. It is especially appealing to military electronics due to its extremely low EMI performance and its suitability as an enabling technology for heterogeneous system integration with high reliability and affordability. However, its real silicon su ...

Contact Lens See-Through Head Worn Display
SBC: Innovega Inc. Topic: SB103003This Phase I project will demonstrate the feasibility of using specially modified contact lenses combined with an LCD display illuminated with a wave-guided backlight to enable an 80 degree field of view see-through display. The new eyewear architecture being proposed is a radical departure from traditional near eye displays. Rather than present the eye with collimated rays of light that appear ...

Design of Unattended Ground Sensors Based upon Biologically Inspired Wireless Networking and Data Fusion Algorithms
SBC: ORBITAL RESEARCH INC Topic: SB032030As recent experience has taught us, superior technology and sophistication is insufficient to protect our military forces from the attacks of individuals and small groups who can easily conceal themselves and deceive standard detection techniques. The danger that these attacks pose drives the need for novel approaches for their detection and identification. One approach that possesses great pote ...
