Award Data

In this proposal we support the development of a hypoxia test battery by designing and developing a domain general tool suite for processing, synchronizing, and evaluating data from cognitive, behavioral, and physiological measures.The proposed Griffon Tool Suite addresses many of the practical requirements demanded by a flexible test battery. The effort falls into three major thrusts.First, we pr ...

Universal Technology Corporation (UTC) has teamed with the University of Dayton Research Institute (UDRI), Stratonics, and Macy Consulting to demonstrate not only the transitionability into commercial systems, but also to develop the data analytics and monitoring and control requirements to extract the full value fromseveral sensors, including the Stratonics ThermaViz, acoustic and profilometry se ...

Data protection/cybersecurity is an urgent concern touching all industries, governments, and private citizens. Attacks, ranging from an individual actor with self-serving purposes to state-sponsored campaigns, are experienced across modalities and by most every system. Efforts to thwart these attacks are focused both on maintaining data/system integrity (i.e. prevention of perversion or loss) and ...

Tiger Tech Solutions, Inc. has developed the markets first hands-free real time continuous multi-vital wrist wearable that truly and accurately monitors an individuals bio metrics. The Tiger Tech Warfighter Monitor (WFM)a high-performance, medical grade wearable monitor designed for high activity, high stress heart rhythm collection and analysis.It is being designed to monitor the service persons ...

Approximately 352,612 diagnoses of traumatic brain injury were made in the U.S. military from 2000-2016, with the 75-90% categorized as concussion, and 14% caused by blast exposure (Swanson 2017; VA/DoD CPG 2009). Concussion causes significant and often lasting impairments in vestibular function affecting balance (Haran 2016) and dynamic visual acuity (Kelley 2015; Gottshall 2007). Vestibular reha ...

The ultimate goal of this research is to develop a realistic, immersive 3-D environment for training en route care personnel in primary/secondary assessment, patient stabilization, patient placement, and mission management. EVAC Sim will provide medic rehearsal opportunities for evacuation patient care scenarios. The simulation will help trainees understand resources available in aeromedical aircr ...

Researchers are identifying new biomarkers to help monitor cognition and stress in the human body and enhance human performance.Traditional biomarkers like heart rate, temperature, oxygen partial pressure, blood glucose, electrolyte concentration, and others have beencorrelated with cognition and stress states. However, the correlation is indirect. Molecular biomarkers with stronger and more speci ...

The consequence of physical and mental degraded performance is of critical importance not only to the Department of Defense (DoD) missions and sports persons, but also to the general population as well. Sweat is an information abundant medium that contains biomarkers that show relation to human cognitive levels. However, obtaining days of continuous sampling of sweat from the same dermal spot has ...

This project aims to make Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) additive manufacturing a practical tool for supply chain management for the Defense Logistics Agency.The key step is developing process standardization to make LBPF quality vendor independent. This project will seek to demonstrate the use of a promising high speed melt pool monitoring device as a practical means to establish such process sta ...

Made In Space, Inc. (MIS) and Siemens PLM Software propose an integrated Automated Processing. Monitoring, Control and Remediation System (Aul) to provide a process monitoring and control capability. Made In Space, Inc. leads the effort based on integrating Made In Space, Inc., proven inspection sensors systems with a Digital Thread for Additive Manufacturing (DTAM) system, co-developed by Siemens ...
