Executive summary
Current state
NASA Johnson Space Center has patented composite inspection software (US 8,577,120 B1) available for licensing through their technology transfer program, creating an asymmetric opportunity between NASA's undervalued aerospace-grade IP and industry's urgent compliance requirements for ASME Section V and ISO 9712 certification.
Market catalyst
ASME Section V and ISO 9712 require certified inspection methodologies, but no authoritative 'NASA-validated' certification exists for composite inspection. NASA has the technical credibility to establish de facto standards but lacks commercial certification infrastructure. The gap is between NASA's unmatched technical authority and industry's desperate need for credible certification in composite inspection.
