HOW THE PROCESS WORKS: APEX has anonymized the information below due to the competitive nature of the solicitations and proposal environment. If you find an interest, please contact Michael Bianco using the input form below. Include the APEX assigned number or list of numbers to which you want to be introduced. The table columns designate whether the organization seeking a partner is a company or a university and the kind of organization sought for a partnership. The table also includes a technology description of what the advertising organization brings to the table (technology brought) and what the advertising organization seeks in a partner (technology sought) as well as the technical competencies of the desired partner. Once you respond with the APEX assigned number(s) you are interested in meeting, we will review the request with the researcher seeking a partner and get their approval to release additional information to both parties and connect the two of you to explore a collaboration. Once we connect parties, we leave it up to you to discuss if interests, objectives, and capabilities are aligned.

94 Small Business Both small business and/or research institute We develop neuromorphic (event-base) image sensing solutions. We are designing a neuromorphic stereo camera solution and software for rugged outdoor and space-based applications that require very low latency, reliable performance in extreme lighting conditions. Current development is in the visual spectrum and we are in early stage development of an neuromorphic IR solution. We would like to find research institutions/companies with expertise in space based applications development, e.g. RPO, space-based robotic operations, satellite EO/IR, space systems engineering.

43 Small Business Both small business and/or research institute A distributed hybrid electric propulsion system that is about 3X more efficient than conventional hybrid systems, engine agnostic, fuel agnostic, and offers inherent power redundancy that enables recovery flight through engine failures. Our power system enables a heavy lift UAS platform that carries up to 100 lb of payload plus fuel for approximately 100 minutes (~280 lb MTOW). Payload can be traded out for fuel and longer flight time/range over 400 minutes are possible. Our core tech can be used to extend the flight time of compatible and larger all-electric multirotor aircraft by 6X to 10X. We're looking for partners with compatible all-electric multirotor aircraft interested in extending flight time/range via hybridization. Potential SOWs include scaling-up our hybrid module, optimizing a system around JP8/Ethanol, and optimizing acoustics of our hybrid module. Also interested in providing a heavy lift / longer flight UAS platform for testing and demonstrating sensors, various payloads and relevant technologies.
