    1989 Economic Impact Of The Georgia Tech Research Institute
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 1990-03)
    GTRI impacts Georgia's economy through the revenue it earns, the services it provides through state-funded assistance to industry and communities, and the spinoff companies it generates through the research it conducts. In economic impact analysis, it is the revenue from sources outside the state that stimulates real growth in the state's economy.

    Safely Placing Pavement Markers
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2007-05)
    There are more than three million road reflectors in place on Georgia highways. GTRI researchers designed an automated system that uses sensors to place the markers "on the move" reducing the amount of time workers spend on one of the riskiest tasks they face.

    Protecting Sensitive Data
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2007-05)
    GTRI scientists have developed a series of prototype systems that uses special high-strength permanent magnets to quickly erase a wide variety of storage media. Originally designed for military applications, the new technique could benefit banking, health, human resource and other industries that must also protect sensitive data.

    Reducing Aircraft Noise
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2007-04)
    GTRI researchers are hard at work fi nding new ways to make aviation quieter. From exploring new uses for helicopter transportation to leading the development of next generation air vehicles, GTRI is helping to streamline all aspects of future aviation.

    Non-Invasive Disease Detection
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2007-05)
    GTRI is leading a multidisciplinary team of researchers identifying and measuring breath biomarkers for disease detection, beginning with breast cancer. The research is being done in collaboration with the Emory University School of Medicine and the Avon Comprehensive Breast Cancer Center at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta.

    Landing in Low Visibility
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2007-05)
    GTRI researchers are investigating the use of millimeter-wave imaging radars that would allow aircraft crews to see the runway even in zero-visibility. Combining the technology with other sensors could help aircraft pilots land in virtually any condition.

    Improving Product Usability and Design
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2007-05)
    When the designers of photocopiers, cell phones, televisions, printers and other items need help determining how well these devices can be used by people with disabilities, they turn to GTRI. Researchers assess products based on federal requirements and also recommend design improvements for many of the products they test.

    Measuring Dental Shrinkage
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2007-05)
    The polymer dental-filling material, used today by most dentists, tends to shrink when it is cured in a tooth causing a tooth to crack or decay. GTRI researchers along with clinicians from the Medical College of Georgia are now conducting tests that could lead to the development of stronger dental fillings and healthier teeth for millions of Americans.

    Improving Industrial Cooking
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2007-05)
    Applying military sensor expertise to the food processing industry, GTRI researchers are using an infrared computer vision scanning system to make meat products safer, tastier and less costly to produce.

    High-Priority Aircraft Defense Upgrade
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2007-05)
    Working on a tight deadline, GTRI engineers developed a device that enhances the capabilities of the missile warning system of many military aircraft flown by the United States and its allies. They designed and built the prototype system in just two months.
