- Description
- Opportunity: Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), operated by the Lawrence Livermore National Security (LLNS), LLC under contract no. DE-AC52-07NA27344 (Contract 44) with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is offering the opportunity to enter into a collaboration to further develop and commercialize its novel Radar Triband Image Rendering technology. Background: Radar images provide difficult images to interpret. Signal returns are rendered showing a one dimensional object that is difficult to interpret. Improving the return image to a more realistic representation of the actual object can greatly improve the operators understanding of the return signal. This can make searches faster and less expensive for almost any use of radar. Description: This technology uses three different frequency bands to create intensity maps of returned signals. �Signals have traditionally been displayed as raw return data. The intensity of the return is represented by level of brightness. Assignment of a scalar value for intensity is used to determine the brightness of the image.�� In this technology, each frequency is given a designated primary color. The intensity of the signal is mapped onto a grid within a volume in the field of view.� Rendering vector images requires multiple numerical values for each voxel/pixel that can be interpreted on a two-dimensional display. If the vector for each voxel has three components it is possible to create color images. Utilizing multiple frequencies enables exploitation of more complex return data enabling truer representation.�� Mapping of frequency to color helps the operator distinguish the objects. Advantages/Benefits:� Traditional image representation produced grey scale images that are difficult to interpret. Triband Image Rendering enables clearer and more realistic visual representation. This allows the analyst to have a clearer picture of what has been detected, thus improving identifications, which then enhances their response time and decision making. Potential Applications:� Viewing Ground Penetrating Signals for Construction subsurface mapping Buried Explosives Buried Human Remains General GPR searches Forensic & Law Enforcement Mining & Quarrying Military Agriculture & Forestry Concrete Scanning & Assessment Mapping Roads & Bridges Utility Locating Development Status:� LLNL has filed for patent protection for this invention. Current stage of technology development:� TRL 9 LLNL is seeking industry partners with a demonstrated ability to bring such inventions to the market. Moving critical technology beyond the Laboratory to the commercial world helps our licensees gain a competitive edge in the marketplace. All licensing activities are conducted under policies relating to the strict nondisclosure of company proprietary information.� Please visit the IPO website at https://ipo.llnl.gov/resources for more information on working with LLNL and the industrial partnering and technology transfer process. Note:� THIS IS NOT A PROCUREMENT.� Companies interested in commercializing LLNL's Triband Image Rendering technology should provide a written statement of interest, which includes the following: 1.�������� Company Name and address. 2.�������� The name, address, and telephone number of a point of contact. 3.� � � � �A description of corporate expertise and/or facilities relevant to commercializing this technology. Written responses should be directed to: Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Innovation and Partnerships Office P.O. Box 808, L-779 Livermore, CA� 94551-0808 Attention:�� IL-13435/TB522-23 Please provide your written statement within thirty (30) days from the date this announcement is published to ensure consideration of your interest in LLNL's Triband Image Rendering technology.
