Oneliner	Demonstrate piezo actuated panels for power generation and instrument pointing.
Description	EU FP7 project to develop, manufacture, test and qualify “smart structures” which combine composite panels, piezoelectric materials, and next generation sensors, for autonomously improved pointing accuracy and power generation in space. Smart structures will enable fine angle control, thermal and vibration compensation, improving all types of future Earth observations, such as environmental and planetary mapping, border and regional imaging. Develop and test the following smart structures: piezo actuated “smart panels” for pointing of optical instruments/sensors; piezo actuated “smart panels” for power harvesting; fiber bragg gratings for composite structure strain and temperature measurement; next generation of power conditioners for future applications in space missions.
