BAE Systems is developing an innovative coating for aircraft Bashny.Net

Engineers of the British company BAE Systems is ready to offer innovative solution for the survey corps and flight training aircraft. With an impressive number of micro-sensors, researchers have created a new format of "smart coatings", which is able to detect the damage and inform the onboard computer. In BAE Systems noted that their development can also determine speed, measure the wind and temperature. Work cover is very similar in nature to human skin.

The researchers hope that their discovery will not only help to simplify maintenance of the aircraft and reduce the number of staff used for these purposes now. Also the functionality of coatings will allow you to find the parts that need replacement. The company's engineers believe they can reduce the dimensions of the mentioned sensors to the size of rice grains. Then the coating can be sprayed on the fuselage of modern aircraft, as a simple paint.
