In the United States, the Department of Defense (DOD) and the Department of Energy (DOE) promoted in 1992 the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (DARPA) program to develop a DMFC for portable and mobile applications. Several institutions are involved (IFC, JPL, LANE, Giner, Inc.) and small stacks (up to 10 elementary cells) were built by IFC and JPL. The performances are quite encouraging, with power densities of 250 mW/cm at 0.5 V. More details are given in Section V.2.

Solectria even had government contracts from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and won a bid to build a lightweight Sunrise EV. But, just as Solectria was looking for a partner, the auto companies own electric programs were being launched. Major automakers had their own designs in cars like the GM EV1. The Sunrise did not make it into production and only a few prototypes were built. Solectria did go on to build the Force EV, which is a converted Chevrolet Metro and the company was involved in the GM CitiVan, which was an urban delivery vehicle.

The underwater sensor platform is derived from the Fido explosives vapor sensor, originally developed under the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Dog s Nose Program. The vapor sensor, whose operation is discussed in Chapters 7 and 9 and in other publications [7-9], was developed for the task of landmine detection. The underwater adaptation of the sensor is very similar to the vapor sensor. In the underwater implementation of the sensor, thin films of polymers are deposited onto glass or sapphire substrates. The emission intensity of these films is monitored as water (rather than air) flows past the substrate. If the concentration of TNT in the water beings to rise, the polymer will exhibit a measurable reduction in fluorescence intensity. The reduction in emission intensity is proportional to the concentration of target analyte in the water. Because the sensor is small, lightweight, and consumes little power, it proved to be ideal for deployment on autonomous platforms. 

In an effort to address the problem of detection of low-metal-content mines, DARPA funded development of new sensor technologies that focused on detection of the single material unique to all landmines—the explosive. The Fido sensor was one of several explosives vapor detectors developed under this program. Unless specified otherwise, the data presented in this section was collected during field tests of this sensor.
