NASA, HHT has aided aircraft design, testing of the tiles that insulate the Space Shuttle, and the search for planets and black holes.
Federal investigative organizations are working to incorporate HHT into systems to analyze speech patterns and identify individuals in recordings in forensic examinations.
The Navy is using HHT in its research to improve submarine design and to more easily identify and locate different types of submarines.
The Federal Highway Administration used HHT in highway design and engineering studies.
Researchers at Johns Hopkins University’s Bloomberg School of Public Health and Harvard Medical School’s Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center are using HHT to understand biomedical and physiological phenomena, enabling a better understanding of avian flu, Dengue Fever, strokes, and sleep apnea.
HHT is helping improve signal reception capability in radio frequency (RF) communication devices, such as RFID chips and cell phone communication systems.
