The Aerospace and Defense (A&D) industry is unique, as it combines complex precision manufacturing with a very large number of manual processes. Many of these manual activities are automated in other industries. For example, in the automobile industry, up to 90 percent of drilling is automated1, while aerospace manufacturers still rely on manual hole-making.
2022 is a pivotal time for the manufacturing industry. Significant challenges from the pandemic, as well as those that have been bubbling up over the long term have brought us to a crossroads with talent and technology firmly planted at the intersection. We’ve reached a tipping point, and the industry is ripe for positive changes that will redefine the meaning of the manufacturing industry at large.

España ha partido desde cero hasta 380 millones de dosis de vacuna del Covid-19 en unos meses. El país no disponía en diciembre del pasado año de ninguna planta que fabricara a gran escala vacunas de uso humano, pero gracias a los acuerdos de laboratorios nacionales con las multinacionales Moderna y con AstraZeneca, la industria española ha sido capaz de convertirse en un productor relevante a nivel europeo.
Passive technology on roofs and facades could greatly reduce HVAC energy consumption. Engineers have developed smart material technology that, with the flip of a switch, can alternate between harvesting heat from sunlight and allowing an object to cool. The window-like device has no moving parts and could be a boon for HVAC savings, potentially cutting energy usage by nearly 20% in the United States alone.
As anyone who has ever parked a car in the sun on a hot summer day knows, glass windows are great at letting sunlight in but terrible at allowing heat out.
Device can see around corners and through scattering media like fog and human tissue. Northwestern University researchers have invented a new high-resolution camera that can see the unseen — including around corners and through scattering media, such as skin, fog or potentially even the human skull.
