Summary: The excellent on-orbit performance of the Suomi NPP VIIRS Day Night Band (DNB) ushers in a new era of low light imaging at night. Its extreme sensitivity to low lights has already been demonstrated in numerous emerging applications, e.g., the rescue of a Bering Sea Fleet crab fishing vessel trapped in ice in the winter of 2013 in Alaska. This unprecedented capability heavily depends on ...

TECHNOLOGY AREA(S): Air Platform, Ground Sea, Sensors OBJECTIVE: Develop a sensor(s) that accurately senses the relative motion between a slow moving unmanned vehicle and the deck of a ship. DESCRIPTION: A sensor(s) capable of accurately tracking low speed velocity measurements (TVM) of slow moving unmanned vehicles on Navy carrier decks, such as CVN, LHA, and LHD, is sought. The TVM sensor must ...

DIRECT TO PHASE IITECHNOLOGY AREA(S): Electronics, Human SystemsOBJECTIVE: To provide an enhanced, real-world experimentation and prototype capability to Soldiers that are learning to use sensors, sensor imagery, geolocation information, Situational Awareness (SA) and command and control information in new and novel ways through the use of virtual reality, augmented reality, and augmented virtuali ...

TECHNOLOGY AREA(S): Info Systems OBJECTIVE: Development of crosslink time transfers to overcome fundamental time synchronization challenges in Global Positioning System (GPS) degraded or denied environments. The Air Force focus is to understand and compensate potential effects on the delivery of remote accurate time via crosslinks in a satellite constellation. DESCRIPTION: As space domain togeth ...

TECH FOCUS AREAS: Biotechnology Space TECHNOLOGY AREAS: Bio Medical; Sensors OBJECTIVE: This topic seeks to develop a closed-loop wearable system to continuously measure a subject’s performance indicators, identify performance decay episodes, and deliver, in a controlled and automated manner, enhancement agents to return the subject’s performance to optimal levels. DESCRIPTION: Mis ...

TECHNOLOGY AREA(S): Sensors, Electronics, Battlespace OBJECTIVE: Develop an innovative acoustically transparent mid-frequency SONAR projector to add active capability to traditionally passive sensor arrays and reduce life-cycle costs. DESCRIPTION: U.S. Navy nuclear attack submarines (SSNs) have traditionally relied on acoustic receive arrays to sense their environment, including sensing of enemy ...

TECHNOLOGY AREA(S): Sensors OBJECTIVE: Develop a detector for landmines with enhanced performance based on linear and non-linear acoustic, vibrational, and electromagnetic (EM) combined effects. DESCRIPTION: The rapid detection of buried landmines and discrimination from clutter remains a major problem for military tactical mobility, for soldier protection, and for humanitarian remediation of prev ...

OBJECTIVE: Develop an acoustic array simulation system that allows for Time/Angle of Arrival analysis, testing, validation and verification of antisubmarine warfare system (ASW) sensors on fixed wing (manned and unmanned) and rotary wing aircraft. DESCRIPTION: ASW systems and sensors under development require increasing test and evaluation prior to production decision to ensure the adequacy and ...
