A trade study will be performed to select a feasible concept for future implementation. In Phase I, TII will develop various concepts with the emphasis on the use of retinal scanning. The proposed system cannot be defeated by application of the rapidly advancing computer technology, CCD technology, or image-processing hardware and software, printers, scanners, and copiers it can provide real-time validation and security verification of individuals and it can be extended to verification of objects, documents, etc.
Specifically, an optical security system embodying phase-encoding will be conceptualized as encryption means in conjunction with biometric measurements, with the general objective of producing an automatic, tamper-proof security system. The research, built on basic concepts in optical physics, involves innovative ways to address problems in security, credit cards, identification cards, protection of computer chips, etc. This Small Business Innovation Research Phase I project involves research on development and application of an optical data acquisition system, I/O devices, and optical data analysis and recognition. Technology International Incorporated of Virginia Optical Pattern Recognition and Phase-Encoded Biometrics Data Its applications include (1) ore analysis (2) airport luggage inspection (3) detection of land mines, explosives, chemical warfare agents, and small quantities of nuclear material and (4) industrial process control.Ģ. Discussions with potential users indicate that the market for this generator will be large. The potential commercial applications as described by the awardee: The proposed project will develop a new type of neutron generator with highly advanced capabilities. A large company, which is interested in future commercialization of DNG technology, will participate in Phase I. The objectives of Phase I are (1) to construct a proof-of-principle generator for operation at 125 kV, (2) to experimentally demonstrate that a uniform, high energy ion beam can be generated, and (3) to develop the conceptual design for a Phase II laboratory prototype DNG system. The overall objective of the proposed project (Phases I and II) is to demonstrate the feasibility of the DNG concept. No existing neutron generator offers this combination of desirable characteristics. Furthermore, the DNG can be operated dc or pulsed. A new type of solid-target, sealed neutron generator, the Distributed Neutron Generator (DNG), is proposed to meet the requirements for high neutron output over large areas, low power consumption, low cost, and long lifetime. This Small Business Innovation Research Phase I project addresses the critical need for long-life neutron generators for use in nondestructive evaluation and in situ testing.
