Research abstract
The objective of this SBIR is to integrate an electro-textile conductive network by embedding it into the parachute canopy to enable data and power transport to sensors and actuators. D’Angelo Technologies, LLC (D5T) successfully completed Phase I work and demonstrated feasibility and viability of a conductive network on parachutes. The opportunities to integrate a conductive network within a parachute will improve precision drops and enable enhanced steering capabilities. D5T’s conductive network system will enable the placement of sensors on multiple locations on the parachute.
