405: Protection Canopy for Military Operations

Engineering Senior Design Team 405 members standing together on FAMU-FSU College of Engineering third floor breezeway

We worked with NSIN-SOCOM to develop a design for a durable and versatile camouflage canopy to integrate a solar panel under different environmental and operational conditions. After research and consultation, we provided recommendations for a prototype that can function efficiently under different scenarios using adjustable straps and hooks. This technology could be used not only to integrate solar power in military operations but also in civilian applications such as firefighting, camping and hunting.
