Maneuver Space Technologies is a technology research and development firm. Founded in 2003 by Drs. William Knecht and Kip Smith, MST is dedicated to the advancement of the theory of the maneuver space and all technological products that fall naturally from it.
The first of these products was granted U.S. Patent 6,970,104 on 29 Nov., 2005. Designed to augment the cockpit display of traffic information (CDTI), 4CAS--4-Dimensional Collision-Avoidance System--is currently in the proof-of-concept stage. Shown below in prototype, 4CAS goes far beyond TCAS, and is designed to enable manual free flight in modern commercial and general aviation aircraft flightdecks.
Currently, MST is focusing on 4CAS. However, technology based on the maneuver space is adaptable to any dynamic environment involving vehicular movement, including ground-based air traffic control, ships, submarines, and space vehicles.
