Thank you for your interest in the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC)’s featured technologies for licensing. ERDC’s innovations are designed to solve military and civil challenges. Note that this site does not include the entire ERDC IP portfolio (entire list found here). This site is to promote those technologies with high potential for industry partnering opportunities.
Scalloptic Protective Case for Fiber Optic Cables
• A non-metallic, water-resistant, insulated case protects the spliced ends of fiber optic cables from water, sediment, and frost
• Reusable design reseals cable connectors, eliminating costly onsite resplicing
• Ideal for telecom, civil infrastructure, and DFOS research uses
Portable Suction-Boosted Sand Delivery System
• Fills beach roadway mats with local sand, no need for heavy dredging gear
• Assembled by hand and operated by a small crew, no specialty tools
• Builds stable beach roadways for military, coastal, and emergency uses
Lightweight Airfield Matting System
• Panels are 33% thinner and 40% lighter than legacy AM2–easy to transport and assemble
• Fits standard 463L and ISO containers for rapid air or sea delivery
• Build connector taxiways, hangar floors, pads, and parking for military, disaster-relief, and remote sites
