Bodkin Design Awarded Phase 2 SBIR Contract to Demonstrate Performance and Evaluation Measurement Capabilities on a Turbojet Engine for U.S. Air Force

LogoBodkin Design and Engineering LLC (BD&E), is pleased to announce the award of a Phase 2 SBIR contract with the U.S. Air Force to build a performance and evaluation measurement system that will aid in the development of adaptive engine technology based on the sustainment and lean aircraft initiative. This program is a direct result of the success of BD&E's Phase 1 efforts to demonstrate snapshot hyperspectral imagery (HSI) of hydrocarbon flames at frame rates above 400 Hz. In Phase 2, BD&E will develop a custom, multi-modal sensor system that will focus on capturing HSI at frame rates as high as 2,000 Hz in the ultraviolet (UV) and short wave infrared (SWIR) bands to enable characterization of chemical species concentrations, local fuel-to-air ratios, and fuel mix temperatures inside a gas turbine engine or augmentor.

Bodkin Design and Engineering Announces New Line of Customizable Single Point and Differential Blackbody Systems

LogoBodkin Design and Engineering LLC (BD&E), an electro-optic systems and solutions design-to-build firm, is pleased to announce a new line of thermo-electrically driven blackbody radiometric reference sources available immediately in stock or customized models. BD&E develops next generation infrared (IR) equipment according to exacting standards that provide precise IR emission over the Mid-Wave Infrared (MWIR) and Long Wave Infrared (LWIR) spectral bands. These products are built for applications such as thermal imaging calibration, target projection, and infrared detector/pyrometer characterization. USB connectivity allows radiometric calibration and correction to be accomplished using single-point, two-point, or on-the-fly methods, infinity focus testing, and Minimum Resolvable Temperature Difference (MRTD) measurements.

Bodkin Design and Engineering to Exhibit at SPIE DSS 2014 in Baltimore

LogoBodkin Design and Engineering(BD&E) will exhibit at SPIE DSS 2014 from May 6th – 8th in Baltimore, Maryland, booth #956. SPIE DSS 2014 is the year’s largest conference on sensing technology for military, defense, aerospace and security applications. Visit our booth to learn more about the newest hyperspectral real-time analysis tool for microscopy. This breakthrough spectral imaging attachment fits standard microscopes and allows the collection of hyperspectral video in over 90 wavelength bands, with no motion artifacts and maximum signal-to-noise.

Bodkin Design and Engineering Launches New Multiplex Immunoassay Platform

LogoFormerly known as the Spectral Reflectance Imaging Biosensor (SRIB), the Interferometric Reflectance Imaging Biosensor (IRIB) is a Multiplex Immunoassay Platform that delivers exceptional Biomarker analysis and quantification.

Bodkin Design and Engineering Develops a New Optical Sensing Technique That Improves Diagnostic Accuracy for Dehydration in Young Children.

LogoBodkin Design and Engineering, LLC (BD&E) is an electro-optic system and solutions research and design firm serving the biomedical and healthcare industries. Bodkin developed a beta prototype by using unique biomedical sensors to monitor capillary refill time more objectively. This project was undertaken in partnership with Dr. Vassillios Bezzerides, who invented the device, at Boston Children’s Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts to measure dehydration in infants. In close collaboration, and funded by the Center for Integration of Medicine and Innovative Technolog y (CIMIT) Bodkin Design was contracted to develop a beta prototype to be used for data collection in clinical trials.
