Fact sheet | Novel process for manufacturing acoustic metamaterials

DST is exploring how acoustic metamaterials can provide enhanced stealth capabilities to Defence platforms.

Acoustic metamaterials are artificially structured composite materials designed to control, direct and manipulate sound waves.

DST scientists have created entirely new classes of acoustic metamaterials that demonstrate promising outcomes that could redefine the boundaries of stealth materials.

DST is looking for a partner to help develop the conceptualised process, build the machinery, lab-test, and raise the technology readiness level of an acoustic metamaterials manufacturing process.
