5 What are Flexible Hybrid Electronics? Electronics Manufacturing Services POWER Manufacturing Convergence for Application Spaces Human Monitoring Systems Asset Monitoring Systems Low-temperature Manufacturing Processes High-speed Automation Printed Components Thin Si CMOS Integrated Array Antenna Systems Soft Robotics 5
6 How could Flexible Hybrid Electronics Impact the Air Force? Man-Machine Interface Airman performance limits capability in MANY military missions.and new technologies are needed to sense, assess and augment the Airman-in-the-Loop Information Overload Missed Intelligence Threat/Danger Missed Today Future Embedded/Conformal Electronics for ISR/EW Information and tracking in contested environments is foundational to decision making and force projection Communication (conformal apertures) Distributed electronics for feedback and structural health monitoring Reconfigurable Electronics Lewis Integrated & Flexible Power (Mike Durstock) Energy limits operational capabilities and mission impact for unmanned vehicles and wearable electronics Issues: Cost & Weight Scale-up Durability Integrated Power harvesting, storage, and management Survivable Electronics Precision effects with smaller, low profile munitions pressing requirement for current and future platform effectiveness Robust electronics in extreme environments (shock, vibration, thermal) 6
7 Technology Development Strategy Accelerate development and transition of FHE technologies to Air Force functional materials community Phased plan for FHE technology insertions Conformal Antennas AM Design Rules Critical Pre-requisites: RPA Demo Human Performance Critical Pre-requisites: Composite Certification Hybrid-Materials Design Improved Conductive & Dielectric Inks Qual. Risk Reduction Rugged Flexible Electronics Embedded Sensors & Structural Antennas 7
8 Plasma Spray Direct Write MesoScribe Technologies Conformal & Integrated Antennas 8
9 Integrated Direct Write Electronics ManTech Program: Integrated Direct Write Electronics Simplify fabrication by locating electronics on vehicle exterior (vs. inside wing). Demonstrate printed heaters & thermistor for wing de-icing Demonstrate printed conformal antennas Demonstrate flexible IC as analog-todigital convertor Complete TRL/MRL assessment Fabricate and test PM: Ted Finnessy, AFRL/RXME 9
10 Direct-Write Conformal Antenna on MQ-9 Need Additional communications capabilities are required on the MQ-9. Conventional approaches to add antennas often requires new tooling (high cost, long lead time) and drilling of holes in the carbon fiber structure. Fuselage is crowded with apertures for communications, leading to co-site interference. Technical Approach Retro-fit existing fleet with conformal antennas by simply replacing existing servo covers. Phase I Results Indoor range data showed VSWR and directivity comparable with COTS components. Design and direct-write Cu antenna onto servo cover using plasma spray technique. Minimize co-site interference by installing onto unique locations of aircraft. Cu removal from part required a grinder. Significant directivity benefit in crosspolarization performance due to location 10
11 Automotive: Printed Console Electronics Ford Demo: Ford Focus Console Thermoformed Silver Ink Electronics Air Force could achieve similar benefits such as elimination/reduction of wire harnesses in aircraft. 11
12 Moving Beyond Commercially Available Human Sensors AF Mission Areas COTS products focus on primarily on motion sensing, with limited cardiac sensing AF needs advanced biosignatures sensing for cognition, stress, fatigue, etc. Consumer products will not survive challenging AF environments AF needs unobtrusive devices with chemical and mechanical durability Traditional electronic components and packaging will not meet Air Force requirements. 12
