Development of an Advanced Conformable Prosthetic
SBC: Infoscitex Corporation Topic: A07T029Modern prosthetics have improved significantly with regards to control and functionality, but the fit of the residual limb within a prosthetic socket is a primary concern for many amputees. A poor fit can lead to skin irritation, tissue breakdown, and pain. The volume of the residual limb of an amputee changes throughout the course of a day and throughout the year. Volume fluctuation within the ...

Development of Explosive Non-Acoustic Sensing on Remotely Operated Vehicles for Littoral Threat Characterization in Complex Seabed Environments
SBC: BOSTON ENGINEERING CORPORATION Topic: N17AT015Navy EOD needs non-acoustic sensing options to improve the ability to determine explosive threats underwater. Recent employment of remotely operated vehicles (ROV) has provided options for how sensors are deployed and the methods for neutralizing these threats. Boston Engineering, Harbor Branch/Florida Atlantic University, and other teammates have combined extensive experience with sensors, sensor ...

Displays for Ecological VSTOL Operation (DEVO)
SBC: CHARLES RIVER ANALYTICS, INC. Topic: N08T005Despite their utility, VSTOL aircraft have been plagued by high accident rates, leading to unacceptable safety risks and extensive equipment maintenance costs. To enhance VSTOL safety, particularly under instrument flight or degraded visual conditions, we will design, demonstrate, and evaluate novel visual Displays for Ecological VSTOL Operation (DEVO). These displays—the first application of ec ...

Efficient Arrays for Generating Light Emission (EAGLE)
SBC: Chip Design Systems Inc. Topic: AF16AT22With today's IRLED devices, >99.4% of input electrical power is converted into parasitic/waste heat. Moreover, as the local temperatures of the pixels increase due to the generated heat, IRLED optical efficiency is further reduced. Overall this severely limits the number and intensity of array pixels that can be simultaneously operated at high apparent temperatures. In Phase 2, we focus on develop ...

Efficient Mid-Wave Infrared Quantum Cascade Lasers with Room-Temperature Wall-Plug Efficiency over 40%
SBC: PENDAR TECHNOLOGIES LLC Topic: N17AT006Pendar will use bandstructure engineering to optimize new quantum cascade laser design, with the goal of developing laser chips with wall-plug efficiency exceeding 40% and power level of 10 Watts while maintaining good beam quality. We will in particular focus our efforts on means to minimize the detrimental effects of carrier leakage and to improve the thermal impedance of the lasers.

Embedded Architecture for Cyber-resilience (EAC)
SBC: CHARLES RIVER ANALYTICS, INC. Topic: N15AT022Cyber physical systems are employed widely in Navy operations. As these systems become more interconnected, they become more exposed to cyber-attacks. Traditional fault tolerance techniques that use redundant hardware and software are designed for physical and random failures that are unintentional; they are far less effective against intentional attacks that target all redundant components. There ...

Emotion Management Orientation and Training Exercises (EMOTE)
SBC: APTIMA INC Topic: A08T002Army leaders face a wide variety of emotionally charged situations. Success in dealing with these situations requires that Army leaders manage their emotions and those of others. Army leaders, however, receive relatively little training in this area. Neither the Army Leadership Field Manual (FM 6-22) nor the Psychology Research literature provides a great deal of guidance regarding the trainable ...

Enhancing FPGA Performance Through Integrated Optical Interconnects
SBC: EM PHOTONICS INC Topic: AF06T006FPGAs have attracted a great deal of attention over the past decade because of their performance, scalability, and cost relative to traditional hardware platforms. However, one of the most significant disadvantages of FPGAs is based on the underlying architecture on which they are built. Specifically, routing delay through the chip is one of the largest bottlenecks in developing FPGA-based appli ...
