I recently heard a lecture claiming that 90 percent of the scientists our planet has ever hosted are still working in science today. That is a remarkable number.

The Office of Naval Research (ONR) Global TechSolutions is working with multiple partners to develop prototypes of 3D-printable (also called additive manufactured) masks for use at Camp Humphreys in South Korea.

TechSolutions has just celebrated its 1000th request for a technology-driven solution identified by the men and women who need it most – Sailors and Marines on the frontlines of the mission. “Necessity is the mother of invention, which is why it’s so important to deliver what our warfighters need when they need it – not five to ten years later, but as soon as possible,” said Capt. Andy Berner, commanding officer of the Office of Naval Research (ONR) Global, which oversees TechSolutions. “When a viable request comes in, TechSolutions works to put that technology into the hands of our Sailors and Marines within months while other procurement requests are still working their way through red tape.” TechSolutions received its 1000th request on Jan. 19. Jason Payne, director of TechSolutions, said they are looking forward to celebrating the next milestone, number 1500, which he hopes comes in sooner than the first 500 requests since warfighters can now contact TechSolutions directly by phone, email, Teams, or through the ONR mobile app.

The Office of Naval Research's Metamaterials program supports basic research on optical and acoustic metamaterials to control light and sound propagation over a large frequency range.

The Electronics Manufacturing Center (EMC) was established in 2021 to identify, develop and facilitate the transition of electronics manufacturing technologies to reduce the cost and time to deploy electrical and electronic (digital and analog) systems as well as the supporting power storage and distribution infrastructure to naval ships, aircraft, submarines and unmanned systems.

The Naval Shipbuilding and Advanced Manufacturing Center develops advanced technologies and deploys them in U.S. industrial facilities to improvement manufacturing process and reduce costs.

Dielectric Films for Capacitors is an Office of Naval Research program.

The Office of Naval Research's Functional Polymeric and Organic Materials program is focused on exploring the inherent strengths/properties of organic and polymeric materials to bring new capability to the Navy.

The Organic Photovoltaics program is part of the Office of Naval Research's Sea Warfare and Weapons Department.

Managed within the Office of Naval Research (ONR), the Navy ManTech Program sponsors projects and develops enabling manufacturing technology, such as new processes and equipment, for DoD weapon system production lines that deliver the highest impact manufacturing technology to benefit the fleet when implemented.
