    Abstract: Disclosed is a retractable antenna system designed for enhancing communication capabilities in sea environments for unmanned undersea vehicles (UUVs). The system includes a housing, a retractable antenna system with a central mast ending in a yoke, and an actuator attached to the housing to enable the rotation of the central mast in and out of the housing. Additionally, attachment means are provided for external fixation of the system to the UUV. This innovative design allows for the selective deployment and retraction of the antenna system, providing improved communication functionality for UUVs operating in challenging underwater conditions.

    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a temperature controlled bag comprising an unpowered cooling device and a bag. The bag includes an insulated chamber defining a cavity to be cooled, a protective layer exterior to the insulated chamber, and an outer fabric shell. A strap is utilized to secure the cooling device in place with a sealing amount of pressure to engage a gasket, ensuring efficient cooling performance. The innovative design of this temperature controlled bag provides effective cooling capabilities while maintaining a compact and portable structure, making it ideal for various cooling applications. Also disclosed is an absorptive cooling device which may include a reservoir configured to contain a fluid. The device may further include an evaporator adjacent to an object to be cooled and an adsorber including a metal-organic framework adsorbent, wherein the device is not connected to a power source. Methods of cooling an object using the device are also described.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems employing a power generating buoy separate from a host buoy but connected via tether, allowing the power generating buoy to be distant from the host buoy (e.g. an observational buoy) so as to minimize the impact of the power generating buoy on the host buoy. The tether is connected at one end to the power generating buoy and connectable to a floating host buoy, wherein the tether further comprises means for transferring power generated by the power-generating buoy to the host buoy; and wherein the tether is adapted to allow for independent movement of the power-generating buoy relative to the host buoy, and has no substantial hydrodynamic effect on or from the host buoy when connected.

    Abstract: A chemical sensing system includes a substrate material, a detector capable of indicating a presence of a target compound, gas, or vapor, and a heater for rapidly releasing compounds, gases and vapors from the substrate material. The substrate material acts to concentrate the compounds, gases, and vapors from a sample area for improved detection by the detector.
