Show more [+] Less [-]The technical objectives associated with this phase of the XBPM project are focused on implementing the Phase I analysis and testing to the point of producing a small quantity of reusable and expendable free falling bioluminescence detectors, RBPM and XBPM respectively. One of the first milestones during this phase is the completion of 10 to 15 reusable bioluminescence detectors for use by NAVO and Universities that have expressed interest in using the devices. These will be used as a reliable and reusable model to gather additional data and refine the concept for the expendable model. Additional objectives in this Phase of the program involve reviewing the Phase I analysis and expanding on the research and development necessary to produce an expendable model of the BPM. The RBPM units, and the work involved with building those units, will be used as a basis for the design and production of the XBPM unit. The XBPM will be optimized as a low-cost and easy to produce unit focused on the potential high production quantity for the US Navy fleet.
