The primaryadvantage ofFMLRS is significant reduction of overall logistical cost sincethesolution is98% waterand accounts for themajority of theshippingcosts,which ca ...

Medics will use End User Devices (EUD) to capture electronic medical data on casualties treated at the point of injury and during enroute casualty evacuation. In order to facilitate the input of medical information, medics will use the Voice-to-Text technology to fill out fields in the electronics TCCC application running on the EUD. The speech from the medic is sent today from the tactical headse ...

Triton Systems will develop a novel approach to field-based disease and biochemical diagnostics through innovative use of extremely low cost bioanalytical devices.The proposed platform will provide a low cost, portable, and reliable diagnostic test for on-site use in austere and resource-limited environments.The devices will be highly durable, rugged, and easy to use without user-induced variation ...

In this topic, we plan to design a vital EMF sensor to work under any conditions. The sensor will be integrated with smart clothing and using e-textile materials.

To address the DHP?s need for a multiplexed bioassay to predict the early onset of organ injury, Physical Optics Corporation (POC) proposes to develop a new Microfluidic Cartridge for Organ-Injury Prediction (MCOP). The MCOP combines both sample processing technology and detection on a single microfluidic cartridge to provide lab-on-a-chip capabilities and allow for the rapid and quantitative dete ...

Military personnel are often exposed to high-intensity noises of various types and as a result, some develop hearing loss, tinnitus, or both. To date, there is no standard treatment for tinnitus but sound-based therapies have proven to be promising. Hearing loss is most often treated with hearing aids but rarely is the treatment accompanied by aural rehabilitation therapy to facilitate effective ...

The Hearing Health Foundation reports nearly 50M Americans and 360M worldwide have hearing loss due to noise, age, genetic, and other factors.The US Veterans Administration reports nearly a million vets are receiving disability compensation for hearing loss, and nearly 1.3 million receive compensation for tinnitus.Remarkable progress is currently being made in the development of drugs to treat hea ...

The focus of this project is a mobile health application that will support soldiers in improving their sleep quality and performance. The app will be based on standard user interface models to simplify learning and promote healthy sleep behaviors. This will be backed by powerful and effective algorithms that analyze physiologic and behavioral data to produce actionable feedback for the user. Among ...

To address the need for a novel self-propelled tick collection device that is capable of operating in diverse habitats under various environmental conditions, Physical Optics Corporation (POC) has designed and built a new Multifunctional Automated Tick-Collection Rover (MATR) prototype that can be automated or remotely operated to deploy compartment traps and drag flags to collect non-questing and ...

The Defense Health Agency is interested in alternative, non-opiate methods of pain control for wounded servicemen. One potential solution is the use of short duration, high voltage pulses (generally referred to as nanosecond Electric Pulse, or nsEP) to disrupt neural transmission from a wound to the central nervous system.The basic nsEP process is similar to electroporation in Pulsed Electric Fiel ...
