The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory developed the proximity fuze during the Second World War. It was one of the war’s closest guarded secrets, and is recognized as one of three technological innovations with profound impact on Allied victory. In this JHU/APL Colloquium, Stephen Phillips will describe the history of proximity fuze to include testing, development, production, and deployment. Join us to learn about the lab’s first critical challenge.
