Fusing Uncertain and Heterogeneous Information Making Sense of the Battlefield
SBC: TOYON RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: OSD12LD2Decision analysts are faced with an ever-increasing amount of information from a large number of sensors and other data sets. This information can include radar, wide-area motion imagery (WAMI), electronic support measures, and other sensors or information available to the analyst. Analysts are therefore faced with the tasks of scouring an overwhelmingly large amount of data for the information of ...

Landing Zones Identification (LZI)
SBC: AMERICAN GNC CORPORATION Topic: OSD12AU3Small Unmanned Air Systems (SUAS) are currently used by the U.S military for a wide variety of critical missions; however, there remains much research and work to enhance autonomy in these platforms. One capability specified by the U.S. Office of the Secr

Natural Dialogue based Gesture Recognition for Unmanned Aerial System Carrier Deck Operations
SBC: Systems Technology, Inc. Topic: OSD12HS3Communication on the carrier flight deck is primarily gestural because of the extreme noise, which has led to a well established vocabulary of gestures that deck handlers and Navy pilots use to communicate. An unmanned aircraft controlled by this gesture

Decision Support for Anomaly Detection and Recovery for Unmanned System (ADRUS)
SBC: KNEXUS RESEARCH LLC Topic: OSD12AU1Deployment of unmanned systems continues to expand across a wide range of missions; for example, logistics and resupply missions, force application and protection, and improving battlespace awareness. Presently these unmanned systems run at the lowest of four possible levels of autonomy, that is, in a teleoperated mode, and each system typically requires multiple operators. To address this proble ...

Exploiting Unobtrusive Psychophysiological Sensors and Work Context to Enhance Monitoring of Human-Automation Interaction
SBC: STOTTLER HENKE ASSOCIATES, INC Topic: OSD141AU1We propose a three-pronged approach to advancing the state of the art in human state assessment. First, we will employ a small number of complementary sensors that can be naturally integrated into the work setting without complicated setup requirements. By integrating unobtrusively into the operator"s environment, we hope to minimize the artificiality that can impact operator behavior. Second, in ...

Compact, High Capacity Parallel Optical Memories
SBC: Accuwave Corp. Topic: N/AIn this proposed SBIR program, Accuwave will investigate and demonstrate architectures for compact hologrpahic storage using materials and system innovations to reduce complexity and improve performance. Crosstalk, data formatting, input/output interfaces, and other relevant parameters will be characterized. Both wavelength and angle multiplexing, as well as its combination, will be used to prov ...

Analysis and Improvement of Trivalent Chromium Conversion Coatings for Aluminum Alloys
SBC: American Research Corporation of Virginia Topic: N/AThe trend toward replacement of highly toxic chemicals with less hazardous alternatives has created the demand for replacement of chromate conversion coatings for corrosion protection of aluminum alloys. Aluminum alloys are the predominate structural material used in aircraft because of their high strength-to-weight ratios, affordability and processability. Aluminum is subject to catastrophic fail ...

Liquid Crystal-Based Underwater Imager
SBC: EMPIRICAL TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION Topic: N/AThe contractor proposes a new approach to underwater imaging that directly converts a two-dimmensional acoustic pressure wave into an electronic requirements fo convential piezo-element arrays. The imager relies on the piezo-birefringent properties of a nematic liquid crystal panel that serves as both sensor and display. The capability of nematic liquid crystals has been established and publishe ...
