Automatic Threat Recognition Algorithm for Volumetric CT Data
SBC: Telesecurity Sciences, Inc. Topic: HSB0122002This Phase I proposal describes the development of an Automatic Threat Recognition (ATR) algorithm for volumetric CT data. Our ATR algorithm consists of four stages: (1) preprocessing of CT data, (2) object segmentation of preprocessed CT data, (3) post-processing of segmentation results, and (4) explosive detection from the segmented objects. The ATR algorithm will be made computationally efficie ...

Objective X-ray Image Display Evaluation (OXIDE)
SBC: CHARLES RIVER ANALYTICS, INC. Topic: HSB0122003Transportation Security Officers (TSOs) are tasked with exploiting x-ray inspection systems to detect potential threats. To ensure the safety and security of the traveling public and to ensure efficient operation, TSOs must maintain a 100% probability of detection (Pd) rate while minimizing screening time and cost. Achieving these objectives requires that x-ray inspection systems operate predictab ...

Next Generation Textiles for Multi-Threat Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
SBC: Wizbe Industries, Inc. Topic: HSB0122005When responding to an incident, first responders often do not know what environments they will encounter at the incident scene. Although the garments that they are wearing may provide protection in their normal working environment, it may not be suited for unexpected conditions they encounter when they reach the scene of the incident, or as the incident progresses. Through this SBIR, Wizbe Innova ...
