OPTO-KNOWLEDGE SYSTEMS INC — National Aeronautics and Space Administration SBIR Phase I: A1

OPTO-KNOWLEDGE SYSTEMS INC — SBIR Phase I award from National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

Phase I SBIR feasibility signal

  • Phase I awards fund proof-of-concept work. For capture teams, they mark early interest from National Aeronautics and Space Administration in a technical approach.
  • Watch for Phase II follow-ons from the same firm/topic family — that conversion path is where budgets and transition pressure rise.
  • Obligated amount $149,988. Cross-check similar awards in the same agency and technology tags for going-rate context.
  • Topic code A1 links this award to a solicitation family — search the same topic stem for incumbents and recompete timing.

Description

We will develop new sensor technology for high-speed, spatially resolved gas information by utilizing new detector technology, prior hyperspectral imaging techniques, and recent development of laser absorption sensors. The effort will result in the ability to obtain 2D-spatial, spectral, and temporal information in a concept we have dubbed, four-dimensional tunable laser absorption spectroscopy (4D-TLAS). In Phase I of this project, we will develop a breadboard 4D-TLAS system, and the effort will culminate with an optimized Phase II prototype design for use inside NASA test facilities.
