- Description
- NASA's Technology Transfer Program solicits inquiries from companies interested in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture and market the following technology. License rights may be issued on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis and may include specific fields of use. NASA provides no funding in conjunction with these potential licenses. THE TECHNOLOGY : Visual acuity (clearness of vision), usually measured by an eye doctor using an eyechart, is one of the most commonly applied clinical tests in the world. With the patients participation, it measures the smallest letters that can be reliably identified at a specified distance, and thereby tests the resolving power of our eyes. The result, often quoted as a pair of numbers like 20:20, lets us know if corrective lenses or refractive surgery can help us better perform tasks like reading or driving. This invention provides an automated system to estimate visual acuity based on objective measurements of the eye optics and wavefront aberrations (WA). WA are represented in a particular form known as the Zernike polynomials. The WFAMetric is an algorithm that converts the list of numbers into an estimate of the visual acuity of the patient. If changes are planned to the WA of the patient the predicted change in acuity can be calculated. To express interest in this opportunity, please submit a license application through NASA's Automated Technology Licensing Application System (ATLAS) by visiting https://technology.nasa.gov/patent/TOP2-146 If you have any questions, please contact Ames Research Center ARC-TechTransfer@mail.nasa.gov with the title of this Technology Transfer Opportunity as listed in this FBO notice and your preferred contact information. For more information about licensing other NASA-developed technologies, please visit the NASA Technology Transfer Portal at https://technology.nasa.gov/ These responses are provided to members of NASA's Technology Transfer Program for the purpose of promoting public awareness of NASA-developed technology products, and conducting preliminary market research to determine public interest in and potential for future licensing opportunities. No follow-on procurement is expected to result from responses to this Notice.
