The SAL-UHP program is to develop and produce a compact, lightweight aiming and illumination system which helps to enable the operator to observe and identify targets at longer ranges than can be done with existing fielded laser devices. The proposed Envision SAL-UHP will allow the Warfighter to have a nighttime aiming and illumination capability which is significantly improved over legacy systems ...

The objective is to deliver (12) SAL-UHP prototypes at Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 7 to be used for demonstration in operational environments. The SAL-UHP prototype systems must provide the operator ability to illuminate 3 degree field of targets at 900m with a minimum high power output of 135 milliwatts (mW). Additionally the prototype systems must incorporate all good design practices for m ...

The objective of MARL is to develop applied research toward an innovative capability to allow operators to illuminate, detect, and range human targets from 0-900 meters and beyond when using the PVS-31 or PVS-31A Binocular Night Vision Device (BNVD). Envision seeks to design, develop, and deliver a novel, compact, lightweight LRF with integrated aiming, pointing, and illuminating lasers with an un ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project addresses poor long-term public health outcomes stemming from lifestyle choices through an intuitive and effective tool to analyze and optimize their sleep, exercise, nutrition, and mental health. The technology will guide users through an individualized health and well-being analysis based on ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II project is to improve clinical care for scoliosis patients. Scoliosis, a sideways curvature of the spine, affects 6-9 million individuals in the US, or 2-3% of the population, and has estimated healthcare costs of $3.5 billion by 2028. Current treatments for scoliosis include bracing and/or spinal su ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is to provide a safe, affordable and environmentally sustainable energy storage solution.This project offers a non-chemical, non-hazardous alternative energy storage to accelerate grid modernization and non-polluting renewable power integration.The project’s core technology is a design that i ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is to reduce injury, property damage, operating costs, and liability in the built and natural environments.Excessive snow, rain, wind and seismic activity create high structural loads that can lead to the collapse of buildings, bridges, and other infrastructure.These loads can also destabilize ...

The military is interested in new CO2 scrubber materials for diving closed-circuit rebreathers. In particular, it is desired to replace the existing cartridges of soda lime with a new material enabling it to be regenerated for subsequent diving operations without having to repack the unit. Toward this need, Skyhaven proposes to incorporate a new class of adsorbent materials along with a thermally ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is improved access to state-of-the-art molecular diagnostic technologies in areas of significant unmet clinical need, such as women’s health. Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a pressing problem due to the lengthy clinical workflows and large disease incidence. UTIs are one the most common ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project seeks to address many of the limitations associated with traditional stratospheric balloons that have, to date, prevented the widespread usefulness of this technology for targeted remote sensing applications. Traditional stratospheric balloons are massive and difficult to operate. They are oft ...
