Abstract
An apparatus, method for making, and product by process for a parachute, the parachute having a conductive network and a set of fabrics; the conductive network including a set of conductive elements and a set of devices; wherein a first subset of conductive elements of the set of conductive elements is incorporated with a second subset of fabrics of the set of fabrics and third subset of devices of the set of devices incorporated is incorporated with a fourth subset of fabrics of the set of fabrics.
Claims18
An apparatus comprising:
- a parachute having a conductive network and fabrics;
- the conductive network including conductive elements wherein at least a portion of the conductive elements are incorporated with at least a portion of the fabrics;
- wherein the parachute, conductive network, and set of fabrics are arranged to enable the parachute to be packed, deployed, and recovered without damaging the parachute or conductive network;
- wherein the fabrics are conductive fabrics;
- and wherein the fabrics form a Faraday cage to shield at least one of the conductive elements;
- wherein at least one of the conductive elements is flexible conductive thread.
A method of manufacture comprising:
- incorporating conductive elements with a parachute;
- incorporating fabrics with the parachute;
- incorporating at least one conductive element of the conductive elements with at least a fabrics of the fabrics;
- and
- arranging the conductive network and set of fabrics with respect to the parachute to enable the parachute to be packed, deployed, and recovered without damaging the parachute or conductive network;
- wherein the fabrics are conductive fabrics;
- and wherein the fabrics form a Faraday cage to shield at least one of the conductive elements;
- wherein at least one of the conductive elements is flexible conductive thread.
A parachute with a conductive network prepared by a process comprising the steps of:
- incorporating conductive elements with a parachute;
- incorporating fabrics with the parachute;
- incorporating at least one conductive element of the conductive elements with a at least one of the fabrics;
- arranging the conductive network and set of fabrics with respect to the parachute to enable the parachute to be packed, deployed, and recovered without damaging the parachute or conductive network;
- wherein the fabrics are conductive fabrics;
- and wherein the fabrics form a Faraday cage to shield at least one of the conductive elements;
- wherein at least one of the conductive elements is flexible conductive thread.
