MIT 16.887-EM.427 Fall 2019 Course

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).

If you have trouble editing the wiki, please let us know.

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

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.

Ballistic Vests, by Li and Lew

Short description of your selected technology here.

Plant Genetic Improvement, by Lordos, Smith and Slominski

Humans have been improving the genome of useable plants for millenia through unintentional, and later intentional selection. The last 100 years have seen increasing advances in artificial methods to improve the genetics of useful plants through increasingly scientific approaches.

Satellite Communication, by Robinson, Wan, and Wilson

Short description of your selected technology here.

In-Space Additive Manufacturing, by Lee, Mandal, and Moraguez

Short description of your selected technology here.

Wind Turbine - Energy Harvesting, by Wainer, Sakhamuru, and Fukatsu

Short description of your selected technology here.

Autonomous System for Ground Transport, by Chun and Yang

Short description of your selected technology here.

Augmented, Virtual, and Mixed Reality, by Baylor and LeBlanc

Augmented, virtual, and mixed realities reside on a continuum of realities and blue 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.

Note: the rest of your roadmap goes in your project page which can be created by following how the sample roadmap page is created above. Click the Edit tab above and find the Sample Technology Roadmap section...you will see that a double bracket enclosing a phrase will automatically create an empty page with that name.
