Future Goals Further differentiate into other detector sectors. Grow collaborative base o National: NIH, DoE, etc.. o Industry: Pictometry etc.. Increase level of integration o Provide turn-key systems ready for applications Tech Development o Migrate upstream to TRL levels 7+ Create comprehensive training program Immerse students, researchers, and professionals in the discipline Educational outreach o Integrate cross-disciplinary detector technology into undergraduate and graduate student sciences o Facilitate and extend external connections with K-12 programs
