Emerging Technologies

Overview

New technologies can dramatically change the way we do business. While most technology advances allow for incremental improvements, occasionally a technology will come along that fundamentally changes the landscape by creating an entirely new or widely relevant capability. MITRE has selected several research topics that have the potential to cause disruptions. Initial research into these areas is positioning us to better understand how these technologies can be used, both for and against us.

Examples of projects related to this challenge area include:

• Nanosystems Modeling and Nanoelectronic Computers
• Nanotechnology-Enabled Energy Storage for Portable Electronic Systems
• Nanotubes for Small Antennas
• Quantum Information Science
• Soldier Warrior Technology
