Description: NASA's Technology Transfer Program is soliciting license applications for the Lunar Experiment Support System and Handling Battery Charger Module, rather than grant applications. The technology provides wired battery charging, battery monitoring, and high-speed data transfer for lunar instruments, rovers, habitats, and other harsh-environment applications. This Special Notice is open through August 11, 2027, and states that no follow-on procurement is expected from responses.

NASA solicits inquiries from companies seeking license rights to commercialize, manufacture, and market the Ocellus 3D lidar for autonomous landing-site selection and related navigation applications. The technology is available for patent licensing, and interested parties must submit a license application through NASA’s Automated Technology Licensing Application System. NASA provides no funding for the potential licenses, and no follow-on procurement is expected from responses to the notice.

Next generation autonomous planetary exploration missions require advanced sensing capabilities for choosing proper landing areas for the vehicles. Current tools do not have the capability to allow vehicles outside the range of terrestrial control to autonomously perform safe landing operations. The Ocellus 3D lidar developed by the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center is a lightweight, small-footprint 3D lidar system for planetary and lunar exploration. The new 3D lidar can perform both altimetry (or range-finding) measurements from high altitudes and, at lower altitudes, terrain mapping and imaging. See outside link.
