A New Way to Dramatically Reduce the Size of Machine/IoT Data
AtomBeam uses machine learning to identify patterns in sample IoT data. The patterns are matched to indices stored in a Codebook. When the Codebook is installed on a source and destination, they can communicate using indices, which results in an average reduction of 70% or more.
Virtual Residents for Vacant & Abandoned Properties
Our solar powered home security system establishes a virtual residence in abandoned homes, protecting neighbors and first responders by actively preventing events like fires & trespassing from turning into catastrophes.
Cirrus Dopant™ Hard Chrome Replacement
Cirrus Dopant technology is a liquid additive for electro-deposited metal coatings that further strengthens the surface coating. This is achieved through the co-deposition of an alumina nanoparticle in the ENiP (Electroless Nickel Phosphorous) plating bath. Creating nano-composite material that provides superior wear, hardness, thermal stability, porosity, and ductility properties.
NANOCOMPOSITE GOLD IN ELECTRONICS - THINNER GOLD COATINGS WITH NO PERFORMANCE LOSS
We have formulated an additive to gold plating that permits gold coatings for electronics that are significantly less porous and show much improved mechanical properties over standard gold. This breakthrough innovation offers potential for greatly improved corrosion and wear resistance across a wide range of gold applications.
Lightweight Road Pricing for Cities of All Sizes
ClearRoad enables advanced forms of "Mirco" tolling, by using data from the vehicle, such as GPS, rather than requiring expensive roadside infrastructure. This gives governments Uber-like tools to manage their roadways.
OneDraw Blood Collection Device
OneDraw Blood Collection Device (BCD) enables remote collection and stabilization of dry capillary blood which can be used for accurate COVID-19 antibody testing and surveillance. It allows for remote sample collection in a convenient, comfortable way and improves patient care by facilitating blood collection into the home setting.

The HyperTunnel™ product will be a Mixed Reality (MR) remote collaboration system enabling field technicians to summon an expert in a different location into a real time, immersive and shared virtual environment to collaborate, provide guidance and instructions on the task at hand.
CyberGraph: Graph AI for Cyber Threat Hunting
CyberGraph is a defensive cybersecurity application for protecting enterprise-level computer networks from traditionally challenging attacks such as APT campaigns, and the ever-present insider threat.
Bridge Launch Technology for Ultra-lightweight Combat Vehicles
GS Engineering presents a system for transporting, launching, and retrieving bridge modules using an ultra lightweight combat vehicle. This gap defeat system is matched to lightweight combat vehicles in speed, mobility, transportability, and affordability, enabling the operational advantages of these vehicles to be fully realized.
Anti-scratch Sapphire Thin Film Coating
Patented sapphire thin-film coating can be deposited onto a softer substrate to improve the surface hardness up to 8.5 Mohs scale. Besides coated glass (ArmoGlass), we can also put our coating on plastic (ArmoFlex) and make it as an anti-reflection (AR) layer (SaffireAR).
Soft, flexible and Scalable Circuits for Textile Applications
Circuit boards power the world, but are built for hard goods. LOOMIA makes a new form-factor of circuit - a soft circuit system- that can be used to power soft goods. Our patented technology can be used to design reliable heaters, lighting systems and sensing systems within textile substrates.
An affordable metallic coating to protect surfaces at extreme environments and to reduce use of hexavalent chrome and cyanides
Our advanced coating technology, MaxShield, is made of metal alloys. Carbon steel coated in MaxShield performs almost similar to such expensive superalloys as Hastelloy in corrosive environments. Global companies have successfully tested MaxShield. Adoption of MaxShield is not expected to incur a high capital cost.
Waste Powered Energy Microgrids for Mission Assurance
Energy security is national security. Our Waste Powered Energy Microgrid solution is designed to power an installation's critical infrastructure using the waste materials produced on the installation. Our solution provides an alternative to landfilling garbage, while also promoting mission assurance by leveraging this innovative technology.
Black Box RF Sat-Link for Mission Success, Risk Mitigation, and Space Debris
Black-Box provides real-time orbit tracking capability and vital health/safety information about the asset. NSL delivered a phase II SBIR with AFWERX, 18th Squadron, and AFRL/RV/SSP for their innovative “Black Box” with 24/7 orbit tracking and health/safety assurance. NSL has flown 100+ EyeStar radios in orbit with 100% mission success.
Nano Oil Additives and Thermal Greases Improve Efficiency and Reduces Friction in Internal Combustion Engines
We have developed a novel oil additive that increases fuel mileage. Current engine oils limit internal combustion engine efficiency and longevity. Adding carbon nanotubes and hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets significantly increases lubricity and thermal conductivity, creating extreme friction reduction compared to high performance synthetic motor oils alone.
Securing the 5G IT/OT/IOT Infrastructure
Our technology enables industries to protect new (5G) and legacy systems without rebuilding the network infrastructure. Secure IoT® reduces the attack surface for legacy systems; secures integration for future 5G technologies; and, addresses how industry might integrate information technology/operational technology/internet of things (IT/OT/IOT), and drive digitalization across industries.
