Virtual Reality Simulation To Hone Hostage Rescue Techniques
DOE/Sandia National LaboratoriesPeer-Reviewed Publication
To widen access to hostage-rescue training, lessen its cost
yet broaden its focus, a virtual reality simulation that
allows two-person law enforcement teams to grip guns, don
virtual reality glasses, and burst into the harsh environment
of hostage-takers and their victims has been created in
prototype by researchers at Sandia National Laboratories

NY Metropolitan Museum Of Art, Sandia National Laboratories Work Together To Preserve Statues And Infrastructure
DOE/Sandia National LaboratoriesPeer-Reviewed Publication
Marble statues, the nation's bridges and tunnels, and cement blocks that entomb radioactive wastes share a common problem: limestone ingredients make them vulnerable to pitting from acid rain and spall- ing from freeze-thaw cycles that may follow. Sandia National Laboratories and the NY Metropolitan Museum of Art together are developing a coating to prolong the lives of these objects

Improved Lap-Top, Portable TV Screens For Future Soldiers And Civilians
DOE/Sandia National LaboratoriesPeer-Reviewed Publication
Fundamental insight at Sandia National Laboratories into materials that provide reliable images in most TV screens may help replace liquid crystal for lap- top screens. Liquid crystal quickly exhausts batteries, goes blank in sun, extreme heat,wrong viewing angle -- dangerous for future foot soldiers, annoying for civilian users

New UV Lamp Zaps Bugs In Industrial Fluids
DOE/Los Alamos National LaboratoryPeer-Reviewed Publication
A new lamp that produces potent ultraviolet emission has been
developed for treating industrial fluids, such as those used
in machining, bilge water and liquids from other sources. The
product is a joint effort between Los Alamos National
Laboratory andTriton Thallasic Technolgies.
