LEADING OFF
These systems generally do not take advantage of infrastructure elements and methodologies that could optimize operating costs, scale to meet dynamic user demands, and enable the use of common data flows to ultimately improve air traffic management.
IN TECHNOLOGY
The goal is smart textile garments combining a micro yarn textile routing system and similar smart fabric technologies with low-power electronics.
Needed are ways to manage and plan today's multi-link based airborne network environment and tomorrow's dynamic ad-hoc opportunistic architectures.
Certain contrails can trap heat within the Earth’s atmosphere at night.
Program will develop and benchmark ways to enhance superconducting nanoelectronic devices based on artificially structured electronic metamaterials.
IN CONTRACTS
POWER optical technologies are to create an airborne relay capable of redirection, wavefront correction, and energy harvesting of optical beams.
RTX said that its Geostationary Littoral Imaging and Monitoring Radiometer (GLIMR) has completed its critical design review and is now in the build and test phase of the program.
The attack fire-control radar, frequency interferometer, navigation, and communications enhances situational awareness, lethality, and survivability.
ICEYE US Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite imagery provides novel data source for NASA Earth science research.
NEWS FROM OUR ALL-ACCESS MEMBERS
A microscope objective lens produces a real, magnified image of an object placed within the field of view. Before it is observed the image is then magnified again by the ocular lens, also known as the eyepiece.
3U VITA 62 compliant 500 watt 6 channel plug-in power supply docking board/backplane for OpenVPX systems. Designed for quick addition of power to VPX platforms.
Choosing between mutually exclusive I/O interfaces and devices is a thing of the past.
The VSC5-2800S Series is a commercial off the shelf DC-DC converter designed for the ‘NewSpace’ market. Performance is guaranteed through the use of radiation lot acceptance tested (RLAT) components.
IN BUSINESS
NASA has identified a strategic need over the next decade for electric propulsion, in particular in the field of high-power electric propulsion and propellants.
Leidos will build four Medium Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (MUUVs) for submarine tube-launched environmental sensing and mine countermeasures.
High-throughput streaming-data processors can enable just-in-time synthesis of receiver processing pipelines in uncertain environments.
This initiative focuses primarily on tropical cyclones like hurricanes and typhoons that can affect naval operations around the world.
FEATURED WHITE PAPERS
Image Analysis of a 3D ImageSeveral manufacturers sell 3D cameras which use 2D sensor arrays sensitive to the phase of reflected laser light. All of them spread laser light so that it permanently illuminates the complete scene of interest. Laser light is modulated synchronously with the pixel sensitivity. The phase of reflected laser light, going back...
