Description
<p>Building upon a successful Phase I effort where we demonstrated the viability of multiple transparent conductive material to be used as an antenna as well as the self-healing properties of our polymer encapsulant we will test the transparent antenna patterns before selecting a final material to be used for further testing. The main focus of the proposed effort is to integrate the transparent antenna and self-healing polymer as an interlayer in the existing glass laminate manufacturing process, verify ballistic properties of the laminate, and demonstrate antenna performance post-impact. To aid in this objective we are teaming with GK Materials, who has exclusive rights to the SH polymer used in the Phase I, and American Defense Systems, who designs and sells of transparent armor to defense and commercial users.</p>
