Safe Autonomous Unmanned Vehicles for Installations SAUVI
SBC: ROBOTIC RESEARCH OPCO LLC Topic: OSD141AU5Distributed visual surveillance has a major role in the future of Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs). Distributed visual surveillance refers to the use of cameras networked over a wide area to continually collect and process sensor data to recognize and classify objects in the environment. Analyzed data will inform unmanned decision-making and fleet management to optimize a transportation system. ...

Advanced Heavy Fuel Injection System for UAS/UGS Applications
SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP Topic: OSD13PR1This effort is to develop a fast responding, light weight, direct injection system to operate within the fuels ignition delay time for UAS/UGS application. These systems must be applicable to engines that are 200 HP or less, either reciprocating or rotary. A technical challenge associated with the conversion of gasoline engines to heavy fuel (JP-8) is the avoidance of knock. An approach used to ...

TRUST: Testing Robustness of UAS Safety Technology
SBC: SOAR TECHNOLOGY INC Topic: OSD13HS2It is understood that an autonomous unmanned air, ground, or sea vehicles can incur a near infinite decision space that is difficult to capture completely in extensive simulation. The response of these vehicles to untrained environments can potentially have unintended consequences to adversely affect safety. This is of particular concern when these vehicles are considered for collaborative manned/ ...

Increasing the Specific Power of Epitaxial Lift-Off Solar Cells for Cost-Effective, High-Efficiency, Flexible Photovoltaics
SBC: MICROLINK DEVICES INC Topic: OSD13EP3Photovoltaics (solar cells) are an attractive technology to provide renewable energy sources for forward operating bases, man-portable power sources, and tactical applications. Solar arrays can provide base power greatly reducing the need for logistical fuels, continuous battery recharging for warfighters on the move, and integrated power sources for remote, autonomous systems, e.g. UAVs. To be ef ...

High Efficiency Electric Power Manager for Man-Portable Photovoltaic Systems
SBC: APECOR CORP Topic: OSD13EP2Renewable energy, specifically photovoltaic, is an attractive technology for man-portable power sources and tactical applications. However, to be effective as a system, it is necessary to have a power manager that can efficiently couple a small solar array (~20W) to a battery such as the BB2590. Power managers are already being fielded with PV sources, but their usefulness has been limited by the ...

SONICSensor Operations via Naturalistic Interactive Control
SBC: APTIMA INC Topic: OSD12HS2As analysts and operators move from data to insights, tools are needed for supervisory control, command and control, and intelligence analysis. Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) requires the ability to navigate and interpret mounds of data to produce actionable decisions. Through the Urban Telepresence program, the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) is redefining a concept of ...

Improved Flotation Separation of Rare Earth Ore
SBC: ATS-MER, LLC Topic: OSD12T01A critical step in the extraction of elements from ore, especially rare earth elements that are found in complex minerals, is separation. Froth flotation is a highly versatile method for physically separating particles based on differences in the ability of air bubbles to selectively adhere to specific mineral surfaces in a mineral/water slurry. The particles with attached air bubbles are then ca ...

Recovery of Rhenium from Superalloy Scrap
SBC: LYNNTECH INC. Topic: OSD12T04Due to the limited amount of rhenium present in the earths crust (approximately 1-2 part per billion) there is a significant benefit to be realized in recovering for reuse the rhenium from scrap material, spent catalysts, or end-of-life superalloys. Rhenium is found in molybdenum-copper porphyry deposits. If rhenium is present in ore that is processed, it will show up in the resulting molybdenum ...
