99--TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER OPPORTUNITY ADVANCE DISPLAY DEVICE FOR AVIATION SAFETYAND OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY PILOT HEAD WORN DISPLAY FOR ENHANCED SITUATION AWARENESS

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: Researchers at NASAs Langley Research Center are developing a head-worn display systemfor pilots to improve safety and efficiency in aviation operations, particularly taxiwayand runway safety at airports. Airports are experiencing tremendous increases in traffic,leading to runway near-incursions and incursions, setting the stage for potentiallytragic accidents. NASAs technology provides pilots using the device with avoice-controlled system that displays a real-time, virtual display of the airplanessurroundings. Initial testing shows that this system provides significant safety andoperational benefits during aircraft surface operations by enabling pilotsto taxi alertly without having to look down at a cockpit screen.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: contact@example.gov, or phone: +1 (555) 000-0000. 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.
