TO ENABLE THIS MANUFACTURINGBASEDREVOLUTION, AFFOA'S GOAL IS THE TRANSFORMATION OF TRADITIONAL FIBERS, YARNS AND TEXTILES INTO HIGHLY SOPHISTICATED INTEGRATED AND NETWORKED DEVICES AND SYSTEMS. TO PURSUE THIS MISSION, AFFOA WILL ADDRESS THE SPECTRUM OF MANUFACTURING CHALLENGES ASSOCIATED WITH VOLUME MANUFACTURING OF REVOLUTIONARY FIBERS AND TEXTILES FROM CONCEPT TO END PRODUCTS THROUGH DELIBERATE PLANS, PROJECTS AND PROGRAMS.
