Related to this, DOE seeks by 2020 to develop novel precursors and conversion processes capable of reducing the high-volume cost of high-strength carbon fiber by 25% from $13 per pound to ~$9 per pound. In FY 2014, one area of focus was low-cost, high-strength carbon fiber precursors and advanced tank designs.

For a group of roboticists from the University of California, Santa Barbara, and Disney Research, this led to a simple question: If you were to build a robot that focused exclusively on jumping as high as possible, how high could it jump? And here’s a slow-motion close-up of the jump itself. It’s so much energy in such a small device!”

The Maverick Jetpack features four miniature jet turbines attached to an aluminum, titanium and carbon fiber frame, and will travel at up to 30 miles per hour. It's a clever way to improve the mobility of the system, says Ben Akih-Kumgeh , an associate professor of aerospace engineering at Syracuse University.
