Abstract: An easily handled, lightweight, three-dimensional camouflage material relying on an outer fabric layer and an inner fabric layer separated by an intermediate pile for effective multi-spectral, electromagnetic detection suppression in the visual, near infrared, thermal infrared, microwave, and radar wavebands is provided herein.

Abstract: Disclosed are a system and method for undersea navigation with a maritime vehicle or diver undersea navigation device. A sensor interface receives navigation information from a plurality of sensors used to sense navigation information. A processor receives the navigation information from the sensor interface. The processor converts the navigation information into graphics data. The processor provides the graphics data to a graphics processing unit to render a navigation board image on a display of the maritime vehicle or diver undersea navigation device. The navigation board image comprises a plurality of navigation indicators to indicate the navigation information and a compass comprising a plurality of rotational orientation indicators to indicate rotational orientation information. The rotational orientation indicators include a plurality of heading direction indicators, a current heading indicator, and a plurality of pitch indicators, where the plurality of pitch indicators indicate pitch information.

Abstract: An apparatus configured to couple to an electrical penetration assembly is disclosed in which the apparatus comprises a connector comprising an inorganic seal to seal an inorganic flange and/or housing to an electrical penetration assembly.

Abstract: A method for effectively decontaminating chemical agents to acceptable levels of contamination by applying hydrogen peroxide and ammonia decontaminants, and a mechanism for delivering the decontaminants.

Abstract: A method for remotely accessing packages suspect of containing hazardous devices. The method includes using a continuous stream of high velocity abrasive particles and/or fluid(s) created in-situ while attached to a remotely or autonomously operated vehicle to breach the exterior surface of a suspect package well below the impact initiation threshold thus preventing sufficient stimuli to initiate explosive, pyrotechnic, or flammable materials. An automatic standoff device may be used to allow the operator of a remotely operated vehicle or the feedback mechanism of an autonomously operated vehicle to optimally locate the abrasive fluid stream.

Abstract: There is provided an automatic burner driven generator system for powering a load. The Generator system generally comprises a burner unit for generating a thermal energy; a thermoelectric converter unit operatively coupled to the burner unit for transducing at least a portion of the thermal energy to a first electric power signal; a rechargeable battery unit operable to generate an output power signal for powering the load; a charging unit operably coupled to the thermoelectric converter and rechargeable battery units; and, a controller for automatically controlling the actuation of the units in programmed manner. The charging unit is operable to adaptively convert the first electric power signal to a second electric power signal for charging the rechargeable battery unit. The controller includes a microprocessor unit programmable configured to selectively actuate the units in accordance with a plurality of predetermined operational states.

Abstract: A flow sensor including a symmetrical sensor tube for carrying the fluid, first and second heaters symmetrically disposed at the sensor tube, and a first temperature sensor in thermal communication with the fluid. A flow meter including a flow sensor having a sensor tube, a first heater disposed at the sensor tube, a second heater disposed at the sensor tube, and a first temperature sensor in thermal communication with the fluid. The meter also includes a circuit for selectively applying power to the first and second heaters to maintain a temperature difference between a temperature of the first and second heaters and the temperature of the fluid, and for determining a difference in power supplied to the first and second heaters.
