Abstract

The paper summarizes activities of the Applied Vehicle Technology (AVT) Task Group “MEMS Applications for Land, Sea, and Air Vehicles”. During its 4-year existence (2000 to 2003) the Task Group has assessed future potential MESM military applications with focus on five high pay-off military applications, namely micro-flow control, inertial measurement units (IMU), fuze/safety&arming, gas turbine applications, and health and inventory monitoring. For these applications technology status, R&D needs, and insertion strategies & barriers were determined. Current MEMS related Task Groups will be discussed, which have been established for a Coordinated Demonstration of Technology (CDT) for Munitions Health Monitoring and MEMS Applications to Gas Turbines.
