This new process is utilizing existing technologies we have developed that will greatly simplify the current process and cut $500K from the cost of the machine making it easier to market and sell. To do this we will be eliminating the vision guided lasers that cut the shell. We will be replacing this technology with parallel gripping cutters that will cut the shell when they enter the meat extractor. The consulting project we are seeking assistance with is re programing the vision guided robot front end of the machine to de-clump and orient product entering the meat extractor. In addition, the meat extractor itself will require reprograming to operate the parallel grippers, new waste shell reject system, and breaker bar.202501349349305885
2024Northern Spent Grains LLC Diggables Yarmouth, MEA$12,150paidDiggables has made strong progress in getting interest from out-of-state retailers and distributors throughout the Northeast for our buckwheat snacks. After the products get on store shelves, it will be important to incentivize shoppers in these new markets to try these new snacks. Since these new retailers will be farther from home, I am hoping that an experienced consultant can help identify and implement a strategy that can't rely on local relationships. Couponing, manufacturer's cash back incentives, and other monetary incentives may be more effective.202501349349305885

2024Unar Labs LLC Portland, MEA$10,000paidGaining access to digital graphical information such as graphs, charts, and maps, is one of the biggest challenges to success for people who are blind or visually-impaired (BVI). The visually rendered nature of graphic content means that BVI people are unable to perceive this critical information, resulting in negative impacts on their educational progress, employment opportunities, navigational efficiency, and myriad other activities of daily living (ADLs). Consider for instance a blind student who needs to work on class assignments or take a standard aptitude test (SAT) in STEM curriculum. Accomplishing tasks such as answering a question based on a bar graph are often difficult (or impossible) without graphic access, forcing the student to rely on a sighted-individual for assistance. UNAR Labs will address this major unmet need by providing BVI people with real-time access to digital text and graphical materials via development of an novel information access solution.202501349349305885

Sold in re-sealable pouches, all you need to do is add boiling water to the bag, wait a few minutes and then your meals are ready to eat. Our unique process, where we dry entire meals, not just ingredients, imparts the food with the intrinsic texture and flavor you would expect from a restaurant quality meal. Our dryers, originally designed for kiln drying for the lumber industry, are made in Maine by Nyle Systems. After extensive testing, we determined the dryer would be essential for our process. It slowly dries the food, blowing hot air over our trays and then directing the air over refrigeration coils. The coils allow the moisture in the air to condensate, rather than accumulating excess stream. We are seeking funding to increase our production capacity by purchasing more drying equipment.202401939349300830

2023Accelera Biddeford, MEA$150,000paidA spectrum of random frequencies technology is the basis of the SR-100 wearable device. It delivers gentle, random vibrations to muscles to improve the wearers ability to control their movements. The SR-100, a signal is applied in the form of gentle mechanical stimuli (i.e., vibrations), which aids the body's proprioceptive and sensorimotor system due to the electrical nature of the information transfer in sensory neurons. Low-level electrical noise signals can cause small changes in receptor transmembrane potentials. Transmembrane potentials are vital for sending messages to and from the central nervous systems. This makes neurons more likely to fire an action potential in the presence of a weak signal, thus enabling the intended limb movement or action of the user. You can think of this as a step stool or pedestal to help you reach things on an upper shelf. The stimulation simply assists with the natural neurological function.202401939349300830

2023Sun Diagnostics LLC New Gloucester, MEA$25,971paidLipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is an important but undervalued cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor, found by several studies to be a significant, independent predictor of CVD.

We have developed antisera to human apo(a) specific peptides and a prototype immunoturbidimetric assay for Lp(a) that eliminates the bias associated with apo(a) isoform size polymorphisms and allows for accurate measurement of Lp(a) particle number concentration [Lp(a)-P].
