As the carry and protective gear of the modern war fighter increases, the burden on the human body will necessarily increase. In our present TALOS MkIII project, we are developing lower body augmentation to preserve speed and agility while bearing this weight. Yet we cannot ignore the impact of this weight on the upper body: in this project we propose to develop an upper body exoskeleton with p ...

Special Operations Forces (SOF) are an integral aspect of the US military. SOF operators are among the most elite and highly qualified individuals in the U.S. military. As such, extraordinary physical and mental demands are placed upon them to excel in extreme environments for extended periods of time. This unrelenting cycle of combat deployments and intense pre-deployment training shortens the fu ...

During altitude-induced hypoxia, operator cognitive and physical capacity degrades, compromising individual and team performance. Cognitive degradation is linked to falling brain energy levels, increased reliance on anaerobic energy production and lactate accumulation. Ketones are the evolutionary alternative substrate to glucose for brain metabolic requirements; previous studies demonstrated that ...

Military navigation users employ a variety of systems for positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT). Of these systems, the Global Positioning System (GPS) has proven itself to be the most ubiquitous, useful, and universally available system providing a precise PNT solution. Given the fragility of GPS signals by means of jamming, and/or spoofing, the GPS denied environment is a real threat and requ ...

Oceanit proposes a Phase I project to conduct a feasibility study for the 12x12 antenna distribution system that can be remotely controlled to enable multiple radios to access multiple antennas.
