Biological weapon attacks are a continuing threat to the US military and homeland security. Current fluorescent detection technology has poor performance against spore based bioweapons threats. PCR, i ...

We have proposed the development of a new Rugged High-Power Microwave (RHPM) system that can fit in a missile payload bay while meeting the desired RF power output and center frequency requirements. T ...

An efficient use of one"s time benefits the whole. The U.S. Military"s current method of cleaning their naval fleet"s propellers is a laborious task; often requiring a multitude of hand tools, as powe ...

A seismic-acoustic system can be detected from the air based on ground vibrations excited with an acoustic source, but current acoustic systems are too bulk and heavy. SARA proposes a combustion based ...

Roadside IED's are expected to be a significant tool in our enemy"s arsenal for years to come. They are the tool of choice since they are cheap, low cost and require very little skill to develop ...

We have proposed the development of a novel, low frequency, directed energy concept for neutralizing IEDs at a safe distance in front of moving vehicles. The concept is based on launching an"Energetic ...

The ongoing conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan have highlighted the benefits and limitations of small unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) operated by front-line combat units and special operations forces. ...

ABSTRACT: Five small UAV payloads were designed that can detect and geolocate RF emitters. These systems provide coverage for VHF, UHF, GSM-900e, and GSM-1800. These systems are size, weight, and pow ...

Drilling of cooling holes in the manufacture of modern jet engine components makes use of Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM), Laser and Waterjet technologies. Quality control of the size of the hole ...

SARA’s Conformable, Disposable, Yttrium-Oxide Bead Array fills a key test and evaluation need in the directed energy community by facilitating local imaging of a high-energy-laser incident on a payl ...
