Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses are provided herein for a container that can include one or more functions, and is modular in construction. In embodiments, the container is assembled to be relatively lightweight, while being stiff, strong, flexible, and/or durable. The container may include one or more functional elements configured to perform functions, such as power generation, power storage, wireless communications capability, data storage, sensor functions, display functionality, and/or further functions. The container may be formed from one or more multilayered panels. Materials forming layers of the panels may be enhanced with micro-scale and/or nano-scale technologies/components.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses are provided herein for a smart panel. In embodiments, the smart panel is assembled to be lightweight, while being stiff, strong, flexible, and/or tough. The smart panel may include one or more functions, such as power generation, power storage, wireless communications capability, memory, one or more sensors, a display for graphics/video, being enabled to programmatically change colors, and/or further functions. In an embodiment, the smart panel is a multilayered panel, assembled from one or more materials. The materials may be optionally enhanced with micro-scale and/or nano-scale technologies/components.

Abstract: Methods and systems for modularly constructed panels are described. A panel is formed by stacking and attaching together multiple layers of one or more materials. A layer of a panel may be formed completely of a single material, such as a polymer material, or of a combination of materials. One or more layers of a panel may include one or more nanomaterials.
