  • Publication number: 20220390960
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for using an additively manufactured vehicle, such as an UUV, with additively manufactured modules. The vehicle may be configurable such that additively manufactured modules or components may be detachably connected to the vehicle by hand, without the use of tools. Such modules may include connectors adapted to securely attach additional modules that may be detached by hand, without the use of tools. The additively manufactured modules may include ball bearings for rotating modules such as propellers and thrusters, and clips or tabs for detachable connection. The modules may include optical components for communications between a swarm of unmanned vehicles. Such optical modules for underwater vehicles may utilize nephelometry and/or turbidimetry to improve communications parameters based on scattered light measurements.

  • Publication number: 20200313250
    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for inhibiting combustion. One system includes a battery and a combustion inhibiting device disposed adjacent to the battery. The combustion inhibiting device includes a material forming an enclosure. The material is configured to at least partially melt if a temperature of the material is greater than a threshold temperature. The combustion inhibiting device also includes an oxygen absorber sealed inside the enclosure to inhibit oxygen external to the combustion inhibiting device from contacting the oxygen absorber. In response to the material of the combustion inhibiting device at least partially melting, the oxygen absorber is configured to absorb oxygen external to the combustion inhibiting device to inhibit combustion.
