Temperature Pill
The sensor reads the patients internal temperature & telemeters information to a recieving coil outside the body. It records body temperature every 30 seconds & can be programmed to an alarm if the temperature exceeds its means. -
Gait Analysis system
A diagonostic tool for patients who expirence difficulty walking. Through a spinoff process called electromyography physicians can identify the affected muscles and prescribe treatment. -
Fire Detectors
The liquid hydrogen that Nasa stores for the space shuttle engine is easily flammable, so a hand held ultraviolet fire detector was developed.the detector sensores spot a hydrogen flame at 100 ft, can show the radiation levels, and has a fire alarm. -
Cool Suit
a system that can eliminate 40-60% of stored body heat. Was created for astronauts- channeled cooling suits for out in space. -
Thermal Video
A noninvasive means of pbserving physiological problems. Thermographic devices convert invisible infared (IR) radiation into voltage signals that can be displayed on a monitor. -
satellite tracking system
Researchers at the Center for Aerospace Sciences of the UND, Grand Forks, used 3 NASA computer programs to make a Satellite Tracking system for time utilization of TRIOS weather/enviornment satellite information. Can see a plotting view of Earth from the satellite, visibility times and maximum elevation angle during each orbit. With all these systems UND's Institute of Earth System Science can routinely monitor agricutural and enviormental conditions of the Northern Plains. -
Ocular Screening System
"Visisceen"-100 provides the means fore widescale detection of vision probelms. -
Voltage Controller Saves Enery, Prolongs life of Motors
Power Efficiency made patented improvements to the technology and marketed the resulting products to the world as the Performance Controller and the Power Efficiency energy-saving soft start. Soft Start introduces power to an electriv motor , eliminating the harsh, violent mechanical stresses of one full activity- prevents it from running too hot; etc. Can pay for itself through the reduction of electricity consumed. -
LED device illuminates new path to healing
the High Emissivity Aluminiferous Light-emitting Substrate (HEALS), then successgully applied in cases of periatric brain tumors and the prevention of oral mucositis in pediatric bone marrow transplant patients. -
Robots Save Soldiers' Lives Overseas
Tactical robots are now being deployed by the US Army. The robots helps soldiers search out and identify improvised explosives. -
World wind Tools Reveal Enviormental Change
Honolulu, Hawaii-based Intelesense Technologies is one of the companies currently making use of the technology for enviormental, public health, and other monitoring companies for non profit organizations and government agencies. the company saved about $1 million in development costs by using the NASA software. -
Oxygen Assessments ensure Safer Medical Devices
A team at white Sands Test Facility developed a test to evaluate fire hazards in oxygen enriched enviorments. Tests are now providing fire and explosion investigations, oxygen testing and training, and accident reconstruction and forensic engineering. -
Emergency Systems Save Tens of Thousands of Lives
Nasa made the Search and Rescue Satellite Aided Tracking system. The System has rescued more than 30,000 people. -
Clean Water for Remote Locations
Marshall Space Flight Center engineers are working on creating the Regenerative Enviornmental Control Life Support System., a complex system of devices ideally to sustain astronauts living on the ISS (and for the future to help sustain those blasting off to the Moon or Mars.). The devices make use of the availble recourses- like turning sweat or urine into drinkable water. -
Virtual Machine Language Controls Remote devices
Kennedy Space center worked to improve the company virtual machine language (VML) to control the instuments on the Regolith and Enviorment Science and Oxygen and Lunar Volatiles Extraction mission. Now the imprved VML is available for crewed and uncrewed spacecraft- has remote systems such as weather balloons, unmanned aerial vehicles, and submarines.
