- 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 present innovation is a method and instrument to simultaneously generate a topographic profile of an object, surface or landscape. Scanning LiDAR systems are most often used to simultaneously (i.e. in as short a time as possible) to achieve high spatial resolution and height (or depth) resolution over the maximum possible optical field of view. The disadvantage of the scanning system is the time it takes to scan, which prevents simultaneous image acquisition. This can be a problem for systems involving moving observers or objects, or both. Diffraction grating systems are also commonly used for three-dimensional imaging. These systems are limited by the grating throughput efficiency, and create difficulty generating a large number of spots and spots with equal energy. Flash LiDAR systems with uniform light distribution are also used, but these systems suffer from adjacent pixel crosstalk, reduced system measurement efficiency and difficulty in giving equal intensity weighting to each pixel. The present innovation overcomes the shortfalls of previously used three-dimensional imaging systems by employing a simple lens 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/GSC-TOPS-34 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.
