In-Process Monitoring of Additive Manufacturing
SBC: Mound Laser & Photonics Center, Inc. Topic: T1204In Phase I of this project MLPC, WSU, and AFIT were successfully able to identify several optical data features that are indicative of the quality of components built with the selective laser melting additive manufacturing process. Four unique optical sensors were identified to collect this information and they include infrared and visible wavelength high-speed cameras and spectrometers. The sen ...

Innovative Solid State Lighting Replacements for Industrial and Test Facility Locations
SBC: Energy Focus, Inc. Topic: T1002The proposed effort will develop a solid-state LED replacement lamp for rocket engine test stand lighting and more general hazardous-location lighting. The LED lighting will produce a smoother lighting spectrum compared to the existing arc lamp sources which will improve the visual accuracy and quality of high-speed engine photography. The LED lighting will also last significantly longer than ar ...
