- 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: The optical interaction of light with fluids and aquatic surfaces is a complex phenomenon. At present, no remote sensing technologies can robustly image underwater objects at the cm-scale or finer due to surface wave distortion and the strong attenuation of light in the water column. As a consequence, our ability to accurately assess the status and health of shallow marine ecosystems, such as coral and stromatolite reefs, is severely impaired. NASA Ames has developed a first of its kind remote sensing technology capable of imaging through ocean waves in 3D at sub-cm resolutions. This breakthrough, patent-pending, Fluid Lensing technology leverages optofluidic interactions, computational imaging, and fluid models to remove optical distortions and significantly enhance the angular resolution of an otherwise underpowered optical system. 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/TOP2-284 If you have any questions, please e-mail NASA�s Technology Transfer Program at Agency-Patent-Licensing@mail.nasa.gov with the title of this Technology Transfer Opportunity as listed in this beta.SAM.gov 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.
