Vision Based Navigation System Development A NEW CO-DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITYReference No: NNJ14ZBH010LPotential Commercial Applications: academic planetary exploration, Department of Defense (DoD), computational imaging, medical imaging, automotive industry, and othersKeywords: advanced modeling techniques, advanced multi-physics modeling techniques, vision based navigationPurpose:NASA JSC seeks parties interested in co-developing technology associated with Vision-Based Navigation (VBN) systems. VBN systems are a mainstay in the space industry and the technology developed can be applied to many terrestrial applications. Advancing this technology for other applications can be of mutual benefit as a dual-use technology to many industries, as noted above.Technology: NASA has used Vision Based Navigation (VBN) extensively in many of its programs. For example, cislunar applications involve determining the inertial position and velocity of the vehicle given a set of camera images of the planetary/lunar surface for targeting insertion or entry interface conditions. Additional application of VBN in the cislunar environment involves providing vehicle state information based on surface imagery identifying known landmarks (e.g. craters and mountainous topography). Vehicle relative navigation involves the use of natural feature image recognition, stereo photo clinometry, or visual odometry techniques to provide navigational information relative to a cooperative/uncooperative target vehicle for rendezvous and proximity operations. R&D Status: Extensive technology exists for Vision-Based Navigation (VBN) systems for both space and terrestrial use. Examples include VBN systems for autonomous aircraft refueling, autonomous robotic vehicle navigation and unmanned aerial vehicle navigation.Intellectual Property (IP):?Laser Camera System/Space Vision SystemStitched Camera Array for Clearance MonitoringDetailed information for the above mentioned technologies furnished upon request.This co-development project may produce new IP that could be jointly owned by NASA and the partner or may become the property of the partner.Contact Information: Please submit the attached Statement of Interest to:Name: Mark DillardTitle: Lead, Partnership Development Office IntegrationPhone:281-244-8640Email:Mark.a.dillard@To view all Co-Development and Partnering Opportunities with the NASA Johnson Space Center please visit our website.Response to Johnson Space CenterAnnouncement Seeking Potential Partners to Co-developVision Based Navigation System DevelopmentReference No: NNJ14ZBH010Lstatement of interest – One Page Summaryrespondent InformationCompany Name: FORMTEXT ?????Company address: FORMTEXT ?????City: FORMTEXT ?????State: FORMTEXT ?????ZIP Code: FORMTEXT ?????U.S. Subsidiary of International Company Yes FORMCHECKBOX No FORMCHECKBOX If Yes, Company Headquarters Country of Origin: FORMTEXT ?????Website: FORMTEXT ?????Company Size (Personnel; Gross Revenue/Yr): FORMTEXT ?????Company Product or Service Line: FORMTEXT ?????Primary point of contact (poc)Name/Title: FORMTEXT ?????Email: FORMTEXT ?????Phone (office): FORMTEXT ?????
