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. ...

Optimum Control of Induction Generators for Water Current Energy Harnessing
SBC: Electro Standards Laboratory, Inc. Topic: 815Optimization of generator performance and maximization of output power are difficult to attain in the generation of hydro-power. This is due to the changing water conditions and corresponding changes in the form of available energy. ESL proposes to use self-tuning controls in combination with a suitably chosen and optimized generator driven by hydro-energy and condition it for distribution to then ...

Efficient Processing Using New Cell Disruption Method
SBC: ENIGMATICS, INC. Topic: 815The proposed effort is aimed at the development of a new low-cost technique for extracting the fuel precursor components from marine alga cells. The effort is aimed at reducing the total production costs of alga-derived fuels, up to one-half of which may be attributed to the recovery/extraction process alone. Development of advanced processing technologies such as that proposed here is necessary i ...

Photoacoustic Sensor for High-sensitivity Measurement of Water Vapor
SBC: MASSTECH, INC. Topic: 824We propose to build a compact, rugged airborne laser photoacoustic spectrometric (LPAS) sensor based on a tunable mid-IR diode laser for continuous, real-time measurements of water vapor, and perform field tests to qualify it for dynamic airborne in situ monitoring of upper troposphere water vapor. An innovative diode laser frequency locking technique developed by us will be utilized for tunable d ...

Development of Native Kelp Culture System Technologies to Support Sea Vegetable Aquaculture in New England Coastal Waters
SBC: OCEAN APPROVED, INC. Topic: 817This Phase I research effort is to design and develop “seed” nursery methodologies for development of commercial-scale production of young kelp plants, specifically Saccharina latissima (Phase I), Alaria esculenta and Laminaria digitata (Phase II). The project objectives include: (1) Establishing unialgal cultures from wild-collected material, (2) Determining the key culture conditions that co ...

Construction and Tidal Current Testing of Field Scale Model of Breus Rotor
SBC: Breus, Sergei Topic: 815Maine Blue Stream Power proposes to construct a field scale (2m diameter) prototype of a hydrokinetic energy conversion device, the Breus Rotor (patent pending), and perform in-stream tidal testing. The problem that Main Blue Stream Power addresses in this proposal is the extraction of energy from a wide range of marine current speeds with low impact on the marine environment. In preliminary labor ...

Non-Marine-Based Fishmeal and Fish Oil Replacement Strategies for the Production of Aquaculture Feed
SBC: ABN Topic: 841If aquaculture is to become an increasing contributor to the food supply, it is critical that aquaculture feeds become less reliant on marine-derived fishmeal and fish oil as the preferred source of essential proteins and lipids. Not only is the wild fishery from which these products are extracted at maximum sustainable levels of harvest, but also there is increasing concern that these feedstocks ...

Natural and Sustainable Alternatives for Fish Meal/Oil Usage in Atlantic Salmon Feeds
SBC: ABN Topic: 8110The aquaculture industry currently consumes 70 percent of the global production of fish oil and 35 percent of total fishmeal. The salmon and trout fish farming sectors alone consume over one half of the world¿s fish oil. And if fish farming continues to grow at the current rate, then by 2010 the aquaculture industry could well be using all of the world¿s fish oil and half of its fishmeal. The ...
