Technology for projectiles is rapidly advancing, including their fuzing and guidance technologies. Though wireless fuze setting technology based on radio frequencies (RF) has been around for some time, including new developments by Orbital ATK , optical programming methods, such as Rheinmetalls 40mm airburst ammunition, are being shown to be more advantageous for numerous reasons. Creative Microsy ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Although the vast majority of patients who suffer from venous or arterial thrombosis have haemostatic systems that fall within the "normal" range of routine screening tools such as PT, aPTT, and factor assays, thrombosis is the major cause of death in Western countries. In contrast, the propensity to bleed (i.e., hemophilia) is more easily diagnosed by traditio ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Phase I funding for this project supported successful studies that were aimed at demonstrating the feasibility of developing an easy to use, global test in the arena of clinical hemostasis that would be sensitive to antithrombotic drugs, bleeding disorders and thrombotic pathologies. This test comprises a measurement of the rate of thrombin generation and/or to ...

Inside Out vs Outside In! It seems reasonable to hypothesize that the pilot of an air vehicle will feel more in harmony with the actions of his vehicle when he is at the relative "origin" of the coordinate frame of reference of that vehicle ... and will respond more quickly and with greater accuracy, precision, and efficiency. Experience teaches that this occurs for a piot when utilizing an "insid ...

Abstract This project aims to develop WormInvestigator™, a novel, highly innovative system for performing automated, high-throughput and longitudinal studies of the behavior of C. elegans worms freely moving and socially interacting on agar plates (hereafter: andquot;freely moving wormsandquot;) across multiple time points over extended times (e.g., multiple days) with repeated measures designs. ...

Omni Measurement Systems, Inc. of South Burlington, Vermont has designed a comfortable, automated bladder relief system for female and male aircrew members flying long-distance missions in aircrafts without toilet facilities. The system does not use anytype of catheter, is compact and can be worn so that it is not visible to others. The pilot can chose between two hands-free and odor-free methods ...

Omni Measurement Systems, Inc. of South Burlington, Vermont is developing safe, self-powered, semi-automatic bladder relief systems for male and female aircrew members. These hands-free, odor-free systems will permit aircrew members to concentrate onmission objectives without distraction or interruption. The systems can be used without the aircrew member having to unbuckle seat belts and harnesses ...
