The team will develop a new component of the AR app, a prototype with computer vision and recognition software to present real-world phenomena that are ordinarily not observable in nature. In Phase I, the research team will create a magnetism module would show students the invisible magnetic field all around them and how it interacts with magnetic objects. At the end of Phase I, in a pilot study w ...

This project will fully develop LabAR, an augmented reality (AR) app for students to perform hands-on physical science investigations. Using the on-device camera, LabAR will augment the environment around the user with simulated instruments and equipment, real-time data visualizations, and annotations. The simulation will be designed to look and feel realistic to maximize transferability of knowle ...

TiaLinx’s Proposed Eagle10-W is an ultra-wideband (“UWB”) radio frequency (RF) sensor that uses advanced computer vision algorithms, state-of-the-art computer processor technologies, and has a fully integrated display unit.

Attollo and Team will design and develop a compact, covert, non-mechanical quad-band beacon for identifying friendly forces. The proposed solution includes a mid wavelength infrared (MWIR) beacon detectable by typical targeting pod cameras like LITENING Pod beyond an 8 nmi slant range. The key technology in this system includes innovative packaging of an advanced, low-cost Quantum Cascade Laser (Q ...

Attollo’s proposed solution includes mid‑wavelength infrared (MWIR) lasers detectable only by MWIR cameras onboard recovery vehicles including those utilized in submarine periscope masts. The key technology in this system includes innovative design and packaging of an advanced, low-cost Quantum Cascade Laser (QCL) and a rugged low-cost annular light projection optical design. TRL 6 feasibility ...

In this Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) effort, Nikira Labs Inc. proposes to utilize open-path, mid-infrared cavity enhanced absorption spectrometry to develop a sensitive (< 10 ppt), fast (< 100 seconds), and highly-selective ethylene oxide (EtO) analyzer suitable for field-deployment. The US EPA has concluded that EtO, which is widely used in ethylene glycol production and medical ster ...

Advances in materials and automation are rapidly reshaping the American manufacturing economy, and must be embraced to sustain a strong manufacturing sector in the United States. Additive manufacturing is possibly the fastest growing example of this trend, growing at an astonishing compound annual growth rate of 25.7%. The plastic materials market for additive manufacturing, valued at $700M in 202 ...

The growing scarcity of potable water is increasing pressure on public health, the environment, and the economy, intensifying the clear and present need to advance water recycling and reclamation technologies. To that end, the EPA and has announced the National Water Reuse Action Plan (WRAP). Annual spending on water reuse is $1.8 billion, expected to increase by ~30% by 2027. As the water reuse m ...
