==Class Project - Technology Roadmaps==
Below, each team will create a page for their technology roadmap which will be built up as the semester progresses. For an example, see the Sample Technology Roadmap below taken from Chapter 8 of the text. You may use this sample as a template and also as a guide for how to edit/format your own wiki page, but please be sure NOT to edit the Sample Technology Roadmap, simply copy over any desired formatting, headers, etc. over to your project page.


==[[Sample Technology Roadmap - Solar Electric Aircraft]], by de Weck, Haji and Trujillo==
<html>
We provide a notional technology roadmap for solar-electric aircraft as a potential new business category. The potential market and business applications for this type of aircraft, also known as High-Altitude-Pseudo-Satellites (HAPS) includes military surveillance, civilian research and observation, and radio communications relays, amongst others.

We will be using this wiki platform to record progress on the semester-long technology roadmapping projects completed in teams of two. As you progress through your projects, be sure to keep your project pages up to date as each Assignment calls for. Also, be sure to have back ups of the information you place on your project page to avoid any accidental deletions that may occur from joint editing of a wiki (however, this can be more easily avoided by only editing your project's page, and not this main page or any other team's).
Welcome to MIT Technology Roadmapping and Development. We have developed a method for planning and developing new and improved technologies called ATRA (Advanced Technology Roadmap Architecture). On this website we share the method, the underlying textbook (Springer 2022 1st edition), courses, a library of technology roadmaps developed at MIT, as well as ongoing research.

== [[PHA (polyhydroxyalkanoate) bioplastics manufacturing]], by Rajasekaran and Murad ==
<br>
The problem of plastic accumulation in the natural environment is becoming a high profile problem. This is because oil-based plastics, while they are cheap and have good material properties, do not biodegrade. There is a class of bio-derived, biodegradable polymers called PHAs that have the potential to match oil-based plastics, but they currently are not competitive on a cost basis with oil-based plastics due to the high cost of manufacturing them. We propose a technology roadmap to reduce the cost of manufacturing PHA to parity or better with oil-based plastics.
 
== [[Healthcare Data Security]], by Hecht and Spiewak ==
 
== Overview ==
Health is an essential aspect of life, connected to each individual and to families and our societies, as well as forming an integrated element of the economy.  Distributing healthcare to the point of care may improve outcomes, reduce risks, and reduce costs.  Patients, healthcare workers, and healthcare organizations require trust in the security of these systems in order to adopt the systems and to avoid losses.  Regulation is primarily made at the national level and requires that health privacy and security are effectively achieved.  Compliance to HIPAA requirements apply in the United States [1], and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies to operations within EU countries, to data about EU residents, and to any organization that interacts with data of citizens of EU countries.  [2]  Healthcare coordination and efficiency may be improved through the use of electronic medical records / electronic health records (EMR / EHR) which may be maintained using on-premises or by using cloud computing services.  In the United States, the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act of 2009 established a program to encourage and influence the use of EMR for clinical operations known as “Meaningful Use” (MU) which has resulted in an 800% increase in the adoption of EMR over a 6-year period, with current estimates of 90% of US hospitals having adopted these systems.  [3] The increased adoption has focused an increasing attention on the need for systems and technologies to provide for security and privacy while maintaining efficiency and scalability. [4]
The team is focusing on the topic of securing healthcare data, with an emphasis on the virtual world over the physical world, which is largely descoped aside from the stakeholders within the ecosystem for the purposes of this project. The overall objective is to main maintain privacy and safety for patients participating in the healthcare system.  Specifically, the technology includes the various tools and methods that allow for the secure transmission, storage and retrieval of healthcare data, with an emphasis on “communication” within a virtual healthcare environment. This includes security controls such as encryption or ransomware prevention capabilities. The roadmap includes security measures aimed to mitigate risk associated with 1) malicious threat actors, purposefully attempting to collect data that these individuals should not have access to, as well as 2) accidental data disclosure, with no malicious intent behind the occurrence. The surface area of assets includes telehealth appoints, wearable devices and medical records.

This is a roadmap that seeks to identify the technical innovation that could occur within the sector, that will also be supported by a more enabling regulatory framework.
 
==[[Autonomous Underwater Vehicle]], by Jain and Yasuhara==
Throughout history, the ocean has been a vital source of sustenance, transport, commerce, growth, and inspiration.
Yet for all of our reliance on the ocean, more than eighty percent of this vast, underwater realm remains unmapped, unobserved, and unexplored. AUVs provide great opportunities for exploring our oceans. An autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) is a robot that travels underwater without requiring input from an operator.

==[[Satellite Data Communication]], by Robinson, Wan, and Wilson==
Satellite-based internet/voice access is enabled by satellites, which provide relay to extend communication beyond traditional (terrestrial) line of site of the network and users. Data encoded in radio waves is sent between the ground station’s transceiver, relayed via the satellite, and the modem at the user’s location. Advances in technology include High Throughput Satellites (HTS) and some next-generation satellite systems may follow low-earth orbit rather than geosynchronous orbits, which would reduce latency dramatically.​
 
==[[In-Space Additive Manufacturing]], by Lee, Mandal, and Moraguez==
In-space additive manufacturing involves the fabrication, assembly, and integration of components beyond Earth’s atmosphere. Technologies in this area focus on fabricating a product with improved performance or reduced cost compared to existing Earth-fabricated products using manufacturing equipment with a rapid production rate, long life, and low size, weight, and power (SWaP). The additive manufacturing units use the layer-wise deposition of material to build up required component geometries. The energy source for the addition of material can either be mechanical, thermal, electrical, or chemical. For in-space additive manufacturing to prove viable, it must be possible to fabricate a variety of components in the required materials and geometries while meeting requirements on tolerances, surface roughness, and lead time. The reference case in the technology roadmap is the manufacturing of spare parts for a roundtrip Mars mission.
 
==[[Wind Turbine - Energy Harvesting]], by Wainer, Sakhamuru, and Fukatsu==
Wind energy is one solution to changing over to a cleaner energy source than carbon dense fuel power plants. By harnessing the kinetic energy of the air around us, and transforming it into electricity, wind turbines can relieve some of the power needs of the growing population.
 
==[[Autonomous System for Ground Transport]], by Chun and Yang==
The autonomous system for ground transport has been surging in the last decade but also possesses an origin dated almost a century back. It is a  technology that has not just historical information but also referential data since it has been employed in other analogous systems such as autopilot on airplanes. By reviewing relevant metrics and evaluating technology readiness level, we construct roadmap for autonomous system for ground transport in order to collect insights and illustrate guidance on where and how this technology will move forward.
 
==[[Mixed Reality (Augmented & Virtual)]], by Baylor and LeBlanc==
Augmented, virtual, and mixed realities reside on a continuum and blur the line between the actual world and the artificial world.  We offer a roadmap to explore the relationships of this technology, align capabilities to future market needs, and define a timeline for technology maturation and adoption.
 
==[[Energy Storage via Battery]], by Cadario, Johnson, and Tamura==
A battery is an assemblage of cells (containing two electrodes, an electrolyte traditionally liquid, embedded in a housing) connected electrically to provide voltage and current. Simple, isn't it?! We focus on Lithium-ion batteries, which have taken the  world of electronic devices since the 90's, are booming for transportation uses, and which still provide formidable challenges in a long-term improvement perspective.
 
==[[Orbital Launch Vehicles Roadmap]], by  Heilbrun, Horton, and Kharsansky==

We conclude with in-depth discussions of figures of merit and their change over time. Rocket engines are the enabling technology for the growing field of space commerce. Their evolution will arguably enable the future of commercialization of near-earth and more distant markets.
 
==[[Computer-Aided Detection Leveraging Machine Learning and Augmented Reality]], by Nestor Figueroa, Masato Kawano, and Tiago Koga==
Augmented reality and artificial intelligence are complementary technologies. Smaller, faster, and more accurate AI models will be the engines of AR functionality, given their ability to track and understand the 3D world. AI will also continue to enhance AR experiences, adding effects and interactivity to AR scenes.  Applications like: image and scene labeling, object detection, semantic segmentation and occlusion, pose estimation, text recognition and translation, audio recognition.  There are tremendous applications in medicine, construction and urban planning, entertainment, security, among others.
 
==[[In Space Propellant Depot]], by (Tom)Tomohisa Okamoto, Gautam Madhivanan==
“As early as 1928, scientists studying interplanetary travel began arguing that pre-positioning propellants in orbit would be required for any sustainable large-scale travel beyond Earth.”[1]  In space propellant depots sustain cryogenically cooled fuels and oxidizers like liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen. External sources of heat coming from the sun, solar energy reflected from the earth and IR emitted from the earth need to be mitigated using solar shields. In order to prevent the liquid propellent from becoming gas cyro-coolers powered by solar panels can be used as well.
 
==[[Smart 3D Cameras]], by Enti==
3D Cameras are a class of low-cost depth sensors that are used in robotics, gaming and autonomous cars for perceiving the environment and detecting and identifying objects. The 3D camera system creates 3D point clouds of the environment and provides camera pose information which is then used by connected sub-systems for mapping, autonomous navigation. This roadmap captures the evolution of 3D camera technology from passive stereo cameras and structured light to smart stereo cameras.
