SILVER SPRING, Md. (Aug. 9, 2018) -- The U.S. Army is on the hunt for innovative science and technology solutions. Small and nontraditional businesses have begun pitching new ideas to panels... Full Story ››
ADELPHI, Md. (Aug. 6, 2018) -- Army researchers have designed a computer model that more effectively calculates the behavior of atmospheric turbulence in complex environments, including cities, forests, deserts and mountainous regions. This new technology could allow Soldiers to predict weather patterns sooner using the computers at hand and more effectively...
RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C. (July 30, 2018) -- The U.S. Army Research Laboratory's Army Research Office recently conducted its annual anti-terrorism and force protection exercise. The exercise was conducted in close coordination with the Department of Homeland Security, Durham County Sheriff's Office, Durham County Emergency Management and the Durham County...
ADELPHI, MD. (July 26, 2018) - New 3-D printed robotic structures can squeeze in tight spaces like a crack in the wall of a cave, jump over trip wire or crawl under a vehicle - all complex Army-relevant functions impossible for humans to perform safely. Investigators at the Army's Institute for Soldier Nanotechnologies (ISN), located at MIT, have developed...
ADELPHI, MD. (Aug. 10, 2018) - U.S. Army Research Laboratory-funded research at the University of Michigan has resulted in demonstrating a new approach for more effectively converting heat into electricity. The research focused on fundamental improvements to an approach traditionally referred to as thermophotovoltaics, or TPV, and such technologies that are...
ADELPHI, Md. (April 12, 2018) -- To overcome the material rigidity and actuation limitations in current robotic systems, a joint U.S. Army Research Laboratory and University of Minnesota research project sought inspiration from invertebrates. The U.S. Army uses robots that are structurally rigid, making them impractical when performing military operations...
ADELPHI, Md. (April 2, 2018) -- Department of Defense Laboratories are on a quest to assemble the first fiber optics testbed and small-scale network aimed at quantum network experiments. Quantum networks promise unsurpassable capabilities in network and communication security, such as new secret-sharing and encryption protocols, authentication and digital...
