Abstract: Method and system for detecting and/or quantifying recent human presence in an environment using a calculated rate of decay of carbon dioxide concentration levels within that environment. A sensor measures the change in carbon dioxide levels over time to calculate the rate of decay to equilibrium and extrapolate recent human presence. Also provided is a method and system for quantifying recent human activity in an environment using the calculated rate of decay to equilibrium.

Abstract: A handheld through-wall sensing system comprising a transmitter/receiving operating at wireless data or cellular transmission frequencies. The system is operated in a monostatic radar mode with transmission occurring on frequency fo and reception on a predetermined bandwidth centered on fo. The system may be operated on a pulsed or pseudo “half duplex” mode and have a transmit/receive pattern that is a function of the desired minimum stand-off distance.

Abstract: A method for obtaining sensor data about a remote target using one or more pre-existing sensors located in the vicinity of the remote target. The method includes the steps of identifying a remote target of interest, identifying one or more pre-existing target systems with one or more sensors located in the vicinity of the remote target, instructing the identified sensors to obtain sensor data and transmit the data over a communications network without detection, receiving the transmitted sensor data, and analyzing the received sensor data to create information about the remote target.

Abstract: A gravity gradiometer having at least three differential accelerometers with a low response to linear accelerations and at least six angular accelerometers that give it the capability of measuring angular rates by integrating the angular accelerations. Both types of accelerometers are based on a compliant mechanism with very low and adjustable stiffness that is achieved by using flexures under compressive load that contribute a negative stiffness to the total elastic response of the mechanism. Both types of accelerometers are operated in a servo-compensation feedback mode so that at no time is the mechanism far from its equilibrium position.
