Moving toward 2019 and beyond, management believes directed energy is in the early stages of a substantial new growth phase. The opportunities are led by a new U.S. president, new leadership in the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), and changes in the mindset pushing out into other areas of government as foreign competition gets closer to home. Add to these the potential breakthroughs involving both additive technologies and advanced manufacturing 4.0, which we believe directed energy can play a big part in, and for which the government is now proactively positioning for with its massive ‘Rebuilding of America’ infrastructure projects, and also broadly within the DoD, and one can see where this is all going. These are very diverse 4.0 projects led by large commercial industrial manufacturer’s and are expected to have long build cycles. Just as important is AE’s understanding of early stage enhancements to very specific areas of commercial 3-D additive processes. Included are very
sophisticated novel advanced 3-D printer processes that if successful could be in high demand from major industrial entities around the world. Interestingly, these and other innovative novel processes useful within manufacturing 4.0 could well be the poster child for the next generation of new and exciting highly advanced innovation. AE’s directed energy technology LGE™ could play an important role in many of these key areas. Not to be forgotten, industry and government are equally transitioning forward and at a rapid rate, substantiating the potential for explosive growth ahead. Furthermore, virtually everything discussed here will at some point likely be tied together via the Internet of Things (IOT) and utilize some form of advanced block chain technology.
In short, this new world of multi-use Directed Energy and commercial additive advanced manufacturing has the markings of something special and global in nature. It is being embraced by both government and commercial industry alike and is tracking toward a life of its own. Furthermore, all indications point to a long build cycle with rapid growth acceleration going forward. In summary, we view the current period as a sweet spot for directed energy, which include novel new advanced LGE technologies and 2nd generation DoD/LGE innovation among the many current opportunities.
