6项任务： 任务1的结果将是指导液滴检测系统开发的用户需求规范文件。随着设计在任务2和任务3中创建，本文档将不断发展，并将包含在交付给赞助商的最终文档包中。 任务2的结果将是一个光学设计和图像处理软件，旨在测量标准间距为9毫米的8尖线性阵列中的液滴。在任务3中，将创建一个实现这一设计的原型传感器和一个机械夹具，以使其适应商业小容量液体分配器。 任务3的结果将是一个基于任务2中创建的设计的液滴检测系统原型。原型将在任务4中使用各种液体进行测试，以演示其功能。 任务4的结果将是一组测试数据，显示液滴大小的测量结果以及一系列液体成分、颜色和粒度分布的统计数据。实验室原型将通过这些实验进行测试和改进，以创建一套优化的性能规范，以优化任务5中的第二阶段产品设计。 任务5的结果将是一个优化的液滴检测系统设计，适合在后续的第二阶段计划中制造。此设计将记录在任务5中，以促进商业化。 任务6的结果将是一份详细的要求和设计文档，将在随后的第二阶段计划中用于制造商业原型。

6 Tasks: The result of Task 1 will be a User Requirements Specification document that will guide development of the droplet detection system. This document will evolve as the design is created In Tasks 2 and 3 and will be included in the final documentation package delivered to the sponsor. The results of Task 2 will be an optical design and image processing software designed to measuring droplets from an 8-tip linear array with a standard 9-mm spacing. A prototype sensor Implementing this design with a mechanical fixture for adapting it to a commercial low-volume liquid dispenser will be created in Task 3. The result of Task 3 will be a prototype droplet detection system based on the design created in Task 2. The prototype will be tested using a variety of liquids to demonstrate its functionality in Task 4. The result of Task 4 will be a set of test data showing measurements of droplet size and statistics for a range of Iiquid compositions, colors, and size distributions. The laboratory prototype will be tested and refined through these experiments to create an optimized set of performance specifications for optimizing the Phase II product design in Task 5. The result of Task 5 will be an optimized droplet detection system design suitable for fabrication in a subsequent Phase II program. This design will be documented in Task 5 to facilitate commercialization. The result of Task 6 will be a detailed requirements and design document that will be used to fabricate a commercial prototype in the subsequent Phase II program.
