The proposed research will initially focus on the key component required for the successful development of the ACES; the non pyrotechnic power source. Phase I will test the feasability of a previously untried concept for providing clean, reliable, and low cost operation of the system. In Phase II, a complete prototype ACES will be developed around that energy source. A viable nonpyrotechnic energy source has many commercial applications. Besides, the ACES, many EMI sensitive aerospace systems could use this alternate technology. There is also potential in other marketplaces, such as the automotive airbag industry.
