**Vision:** We will apply novel techniques developed for medical imaging to Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) of critical composite components in aircraft to transform the sensitivity and speed of testing, and hence transform maintenance economics.The long-term intent is to develop a new approach that can be applied in manufacture and routine maintenance.The vision is to develop NDT technologies that will be adopted by prime aircraft component manufacturers, and this will then drive adoption in the through-life maintenance programme to deliver value in terms of reduced manufacturing costs and reduced through-life cost-of-test.**Objectives:**1\. To deliver a demonstrator for a new type of imaging modality for NDT of composites for aviation applications.2\. The National Composite Centre ('NCC' a UK Research Technology Organisation) will work with Adaptix to integrate micro-fiducials (tiny specks whose position can be imaged) into composites and validate them for aviation use.3\. The National Physical Laboratory ('NPL' a UK RTO as Contractor) will work with Adaptix to validate that:3.1 The micro-fiducials do not affect critical physical properties; and,3.2 That imaging is capable of better identifying the target failure modes than existing inspection modalities.**Focus:** We will focus on identifying delamination and wrinkles as these are the failure-modes with the greatest safety and economic relevance. In order to drive adoption, we will work with a specific early adopter and on high-value composite part to illustrate the value to an aerospace Prime.**Innovation:** We will deliver an imaging system to image composite structures tagged with micro-fiducials which will go beyond laminography in the ability to detect key failure modes.We aim to prove that the inclusion of micro-fiducials can enhance the ability to detect failure modes without adversely affecting the physical properties of a device, and in doing so overcome objections to the use of the technique.

** 愿景：** 我们将把为医学成像开发的新技术应用于飞机关键复合材料部件的无损检测（NDT），以提高检测的灵敏度和速度，从而改变维护经济性。长期目标是开发一种可应用于制造和日常维护的新方法。愿景是开发将被主要飞机部件制造商采用的NDT技术，从而推动全寿命维护计划的采用，以降低制造成本和全寿命测试成本。**目标：**1\.为航空复合材料无损检测提供一种新型成像模式的演示器。英国国家复合材料中心（NCC）将与Adaptix合作，将微型基准点（位置可以成像的微小斑点）集成到复合材料中，并验证它们是否可用于航空。国家物理实验室（“NPL”，英国RTO作为承包商）将与Adaptix合作，以验证：3.1微基准点不会影响关键的物理特性;以及，3.2成像能够比现有的检查方式更好地识别目标故障模式。重点：** 我们将重点关注分层和褶皱的识别，因为这些是具有最大安全性和经济相关性的失效模式。为了推动采用，我们将与特定的早期采用者和高价值复合材料部件合作，以说明航空航天Prime的价值。创新：** 我们将提供一种成像系统，用于对标记有微基准点的复合结构进行成像，这种成像系统在检测关键故障模式的能力上将超越分层成像。我们的目标是证明，包含微基准点可以增强检测故障模式的能力，而不会对设备的物理特性产生不利影响，并在此过程中克服使用该技术的异议。
