Executive summary
Current state
NASA Armstrong Flight Research Center has developed a sophisticated fiber optic sensing system (FOSS) with 10+ patents and established licensing program, but lacks commercial incentive structures to capture certification sovereignty, data ownership value, or market-facing distribution channels in the $5.6B structural health monitoring market.
Market catalyst
NASA's technology transfer program focuses on licensing the patents themselves but hasn't captured the data value generated by deployed systems. The structural health monitoring market desperately needs real-world failure data for risk assessment, but no single entity owns a comprehensive dataset across multiple environments and failure modes.
