- Description
- NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, VA solicits interest from companiesinterested in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture and market thefollowing technology. License rights may be issued on an exclusive or nonexclusive basisand may include specific fields of use. THE TECHNOLOGY: NASA Langley researchers have developed an enhanced crimp tool that provides real-timeverification of wire-crimp integrity while the crimp is being formed. The toolnondestructively tests crimp connection quality in aircraft and other critical wiringsystems. Modern commercial aircraft rely on thousands of crimped wire terminations forcritical communication, navigation, control, and electrical power distribution systems.Wiring crimp failures can be a threat to aircraft safety and may lead to a loss ofcritical functions or an onboard fire. In addition to the safety concerns, diagnosing andrepairing poor crimp connections is costly. By enabling an efficient way to directly testall crimps as they are made, the new tool improves quality control and reduces the risksof failure.To express interest in this opportunity, please respond to Sean Sullivan, ResearchTriangle International (RTI), at: NASA Langley Research Center, Strategic RelationshipsOffice (SRSO),17 West Taylor St., Mail Stop 218, Building 1212, Room 110 Hampton,Virginia, E-mail: Sean.D.Sullivan@NASA.gov, or phone: 757-864-5055. Please indicate thedate and title of the FBO notice and include your company and contact information.RTI is responsible for aggregating and acknowledging all responses. These responses areprovided to members of NASA Langleys Innovative Partnerships Office within the SRO forthe purpose of promoting public awareness of our technology products, and conductingpreliminary market research to determine public interest in and potential for futurelicensing opportunities. If direct licensing interest results from this posting, SRO willfollow the formal licensing process of posting in the Federal Register as required. Nofollow-on procurement is expected to result from responses to this Notice.
