Military Applications of MEMS Technology

Baby Chithra R., Anand J J, S Saravana Kumar

Abstract


The paper is centered on the study of applications on MEMS based sensors in military regions. The study initially deals with a MEMS sensor which is capable of monitoring the missile altitude and its rotational roll rate along with its pitch and yaw. Missiles are being exposed to outer conditions and hence needs to be inspected continuously for its proper maintenance. Further in past few years the advancements in this technology also deals with MEMS sensors used in missile health monitoring, and the utilization of optical MEMS for beam steering of the missiles and packaging of these miniature devices and integrating it onto the military arsenals.
