Executive summary
Current state
NASA Johnson Space Center has dormant NDE software (MSC-TOPS-34) with aerospace-grade validation but lacks commercial distribution. The $446M+ thermography inspection market needs credible solutions but cannot access NASA's technology through bureaucratic licensing channels.
Market catalyst
MSC-TOPS-34 requires specific data formats that don't match commercial IR camera outputs, creating technical integration barrier that prevents companies from properly evaluating the software. The compatibility gap exists between NASA's aerospace data standards and commercial equipment manufacturers' proprietary formats.
