A real-world story of NASA technology finding a life beyond the mission.
About this technology
Overview
Stennis Space Center awarded Simi Valley, California-based American GNC Corporation several SBIR and STTR contracts to develop smart sensor networks that monitor systems to detect and predict faults. The technology can also detect faults in its own sensors. The work led to the company’s Reconfigurable Embedded Smart Sensor Node and its Smart Transducer Integrator, which can gather information from many sensors, package it, and deliver it wirelessly.
