Priority Areas for R&D in Security Sample Clauses

Priority Areas for R&D in Security. Reducing cost and size across all security areas, the common beneficial thrust for all types of accelerator based systems is to drive down the cost, size and weight. • The development of tuneable narrow-band (MeV) X-ray sources for nuclear resonance fluorescence and/or active fission techniques. • The development of 3D imaging to allow better recognition of images for operators. • The development of low-cost and robust short-pulse, high-repetition rate accelerators for time-of-flight backscattering could be useful without degrading image quality. • Studies into the feasibility of developing muon accelerators to provide muon sources for muon-scattering tomography screening systems (muons are another elementary particle, like electrons, sometimes employed in analysis). • The improvement of accelerator diagnostics and the innovation of more rugged, user- friendly, autonomous technologies for use in security applications by border staff, police and military end-users – including the development of automatic image recognition to identify high-risk items. • The development of compact, multi-pulsed source technology to support stockpile stewardship. This market sector covers a number of applications that require a broad range of technical solutions. The market is dominated by a comparatively small number of Lateral Market system integrators capable of delivering full solutions for personnel, baggage, cargo and threat detection. The market size is significant and Supply Chain networks are well established. The market is typified by a constant evolution of countermeasures to avoid detection, providing a significant drive for innovative technologies. The opportunities for co-innovation and outward innovation from the National Laboratories technology R&D programmes is considerable. Test and validation capabilities around diagnostics, imaging and dose delivery are also considerable, since security systems potentially need to consider unintended human exposure (i.e. stowaways). The respondents from the AMICI Partners generally did not highlight security as a priority sector to promote innovation and commercial application. This may reflect the guarded nature of the marketplace. With comparatively limited players, intellectual property sensitivity plays a greater role in Industry’s desire to develop solutions in house. Despite these IP concerns, the in-depth interview response for the security Lateral Market companies cited existing relationships with National Laborator...
