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: nasa Langley Research Center Has Developed A Wind Event Warning Technology Providing A Practical Early Warning System (5-10 Minutes) For A Severe Change In The Wind Vector. Events Such As Gusts, Shear, Microbursts Or Thunderstorm Outflows Can Be Detected In Time To Prevent Damage To Wind Turbines Or Help Airports Prevent Damage To Aircraft. Further, An Alternative Power Source Could Be Ramped Up Or Down As Needed To Accommodate The Power Draw In The Electrical Grid. the Wind Event Warning System (wews) Is High-energy Doppler Lidar Sensor That Measures Approaching Changes Of Wind Such As An Oncoming Variation Of Wind Speed That Will Change The Power Output Of A Wind Farm. Different From Low-energy, The High-energy Doppler Lidar Has The Energy To Reach The Long Distances Necessary To Provide Adequate Warning Time Of A Wind Event. With The Time Provided By Wews, The Blades Of A Wind Turbine Could Be Feathered To Prevent Strong Wind From Damaging The Turbine. In Addition, Airports Could Use Wews To Protect Aircraft From Sudden Wind Hazards. to Express Interest In This Opportunity, Please Submit A License Application Through Nasa’s Automated Technology Licensing Application System (atlas) By Visitinghttps://technology.nasa.gov/patent/lar-tops-229 if You Have Any Questions, Please E-mail Nasa’s Technology Transfer Program Atagency-patent-licensing@mail.nasa.govwith The Title Of This Technology Transfer Opportunity As Listed In This Sam.gov Notice And Your Preferred Contact Information.
