Abstract: A smart structure egress channel is disclosed that provides a central location for multiple embedded sensors to come together and then exit the structure. A plurality of holes allow sensors to enter the channel. A communication connector provides an exit point for sensor transmittal. Maintenance of the various devices within the smart structure egress channel is possible through an access cover and access extension which extends above the channel. The exterior shape of the channel is designed to function within a primary load-carrying structural member such as a composite structure within a modern aircraft.
