  1. SPINOFF NASA-Derived Technologies

  2. NASA SPINOFF • Commercial products or services which have been developed by NASA

  3. Spinoff technology • Health and Medicine • Transportation • Public Safety • Consumer Goods • Energy and Environment • Information Technology • Industrial Productivity

  4. Water treatment technologies inspire healthy beverages-health and medicine • Kombucha-based probiotic beverage • Healthy • Very popular • Sold more than 5 million bottles in 2012 Mike Johnson

  5. Anti-icing formulas prevent train delays-transportation • Ice Free Switch (IFS) • Fluid that maintains railroad track switch operations in snow or ice. • Prevent train delays • Also used in aviation

  6. Detectors ensure function-public safety • More than 200 miles of electrical wiring in the space shuttle, aircraft. • SWR (standing wave reflectometer) • Use to quickly inspect electrical bundles and wires. • Take less than 5 seconds to locate a fault in electrical wiring

  7. Sensors enable plants to text message farmers-energy and environmental • Sensors that would measure plant water level directly • Small chip clipped onto the leaf • Monitor the plant’s health using electrical pulses • Use to ensure that the farmers do not overwater plants • Save more money, conserve resources • “Thirsty” plants can even text message to their farmers asking for more water

  8. Simulation packages expand aircraft design options-Information technology • Easier to design a new air vehicle • COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS (CFD) • CFD predict the flow of fluids and gasses around an object • Aircraft wings • Helpful in assessing the aircraft’s aerodynamic performance and handling • Cart3D is widely used in avation industry
