Assist DoD engineers and scientists with projects relating to power and the environment, as well as logistics procurement. These projects range between finding already-established solutions on the market, or building our own from scratch. Some of the projects include:* Water generators (such as those from Seas SA) with solar power capabilities, which can connect to local grids to provide both power and water for forward-deployed troops and disaster areas;* Fuel-measuring radar… Show more Assist DoD engineers and scientists with projects relating to power and the environment, as well as logistics procurement.
