Self-powered Wireless Sensors and Interfaces for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (open access)

Self-powered Wireless Sensors and Interfaces for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

Data management plan for the grant, "Self-powered Wireless Sensors and Interfaces for UAVs." Self-powered wireless sensors acting as nanogenerators can not only harvest ambient environment energy during the flight but also are capable of wirelessly monitoring pressure, temperature and other parameters to make the UAV truly an intelligent transportation system (ITS). This proposal requests the acquisition of a Mask Aligner to pattern such self-powered sensors with nano-antenna structures for wireless communication. The addition of the proposed system will enable researchers to study novel 2D materials as self-powered sensors and actuators. The proposed infrastructure would allow the development of smart, autonomous mobility systems with breakthroughs in intelligent technologies, research and workforce preparation.
