2. Personal communication devices deliver real-time traffic, transit, and parking information; electronic yellow pages; and city/event information to travelers. Battelle managed the first successful 17-week demonstration of Intelligent Transportation Systems integration at the 1996 Olympics.

3. SmartShop^TM, a Battelle-developed smart card system, electronically logs store discounts onto a computer chip. It decreases the time and cost of coupon processing for retailers, alleviates the hassle of clipping and carrying coupons for shoppers, and enables retailers to better market products by accessing demographic information on the card.

4. This microchannel chemical processing "chip" is part of a compact, fuel processor system in development at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory under funding from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and the Department of Energy. Used for the production of hydrogen from hydrocarbon fuels, the unit could be coupled with the lightweight fuel cells to power vehicles or replace batteries - at 1/10 the weight.

5. Leonardo Sundials^® prototypes contain Battelle-produced polarizing films that allow instant adjustment of density and color for sunglass lenses. Battelle selected dyes and achieved processing conditions for fragile, brittle, and water soluble polyvinyl alcohol film.

6. SandZ^TM is a Battelle-developed non-toxic, synthetic sand toy that molds like wet sand - without the water. The product, developed for My Best Toys, comes in a wide range of colors and, when molded, can be baked in the oven and saved.

7. From pharmaceutical product development to chemical biological defense, Battelle co-invests with industry and government. For industry, we provide state-of-the-art technologies and facilities to improve drug products and shorten the development process. We work with the military to assess the effectiveness of drugs and vaccines against aerosolized chemical and biological agents.

8. Battelle serves the chemical industry worldwide, developing agrochemical products to ensure a safe and plentiful food supply, co-founding a consortium to solve common environmental needs, and using technology to help firms compete effectively.

9. Inhalers are at the leading edge of drug delivery technology. Battelle co-developed a non-invasive pulmonary drug delivery technology in 1996 and is expanding the number and types of drugs that can be delivered through the lungs.

10. Thermastor Gloves contain a Battelle-developed polymer emulsion that allows them to serve as reservoirs, which release heat or cold. Developed for R.G. Barry, this emulsion is lightweight, non-toxic, non-flammable, and reusable.

11. A leader in medical product development, Battelle completed a conceptual study for this minimally invasive blood diagnostic system intended for use in a bedside care setting. This unit optically analyzes a blood sample and displays real-time information.

12. Light-Vehicle Obscuration Smoke System obscures military vehicles in a matter of seconds, so they are safe from attack. Battelle developed, fabricated, and field tested rapid prototypes for the U.S. Army.

13. Aluminum alloy radiator test samples are developed for Ravenswood Aluminum to produce a higher strength alloy for lightweight automotive radiators.
