N04-256 - Analatom Incorporated Wireless Sensors with Advanced Detection and Prognostic Capabilities for Corrosion Health Management.

NEED & CUSTOMER REQUIREMENT Need: High value, critical assets require a structural health monitoring (SHM) system to quantify the impact of harsh environmental and operational conditions. Such a system would continuously monitor the structural condition, and determine the optimal maintenance schedule and life-cycle for the asset. Value to the Warfighter: SHM systems using advanced prognostics algorithms ensure battle readiness for mission critical systems. Effective condition based maintenance (CBM) reduces down time of the asset for scheduled maintenance by >50%, and further reduces maintenance and life-cycle costs by >50%. Operational Gap: : Present CBM programs require removing the asset from service for test and evaluation of structural health. New embedded, autonomous sensor networks will automatically measure, collect, and process environmental effects to the asset, thereby predicting the structural condition and maintenance requirements for the platform. Customer Specifications: Implementation of the SHM system will require MIL-SPEC standards for electronics and packaging used in the sensor platform, along with ISO9000 manufacturing protocols and practices.

Technology Description: The Wireless Sensor Platform incorporates Analatom’s patented LPR corrosion and MEMS strain gauge sensors, and is open ended for adapting a range of environmental and flight parameter sensors. The system incorporates microflex packaging for a low profile, rugged design, onboard signal processing of sensor data, and wireless download to a central server for data analysis. Additional prognostics software algorithms have been developed for prediction of structural health based on sensor, flight and historical databases for the asset.

The company is looking for transition opportunities and program dollars for the following applications and targeted activities:

>> P-3/EP-3 Aircraft, MH-53/V-71 Helicopter, JSF Program of Record: Original target JSF (not ikely until Block 4 owing to cost overruns); others TBD -- MH-53, V-71. Prime Contractors: Northrup-Grumman; Lockheed Martin; BAE Systems; Raytheon Business Model: Analatom seeks strategic alliances with manufacturing, assembly, and packaging companies in order to meet production, quality control, and cost requirements for the wireless sensor products.This is intended to minimize capitol costs associated with manufacturing equipment and production line personnel. Analatom further seeks to partner with prime contractors/integrators for DOD and commercial applications through joint development, licensing, and acquisition agreements.

Open contracts: NAVAIR SBIR Ph II N68335-06-C-0317, Close: 7/2008.

Company: Analatom Incorporated

Contact: Dr. Ben Laskowski

Objective: Analatom seeks business relationships with key Prime contractors for DOD and commercial applications via direct licensing, subcontracting, or acquisition agreements. Additioinal funding is sought via direct contracts with the Navy, as well as VC / corporate partner financing, to expedite the path to product manufacturing.
