1、Technology Transfer 5a,Technology Transfer,The sharing of the development and production of an invention (a new product or system) or innovation (an improvement of an existing product or system) expands the knowledge base of technology.,Technology Transfer,This new knowledge base will have a direct
2、effect on the ability of people to develop and produce more technologies, which is referred to as technology transfer or spin-offs.,Technology Transfer,Technology transfer, or spin-offs, is an exciting concept. You will have various opportunities in this course to investigate how technology transfer
3、 happens within a technology, among technologies, and across other fields of study.,Technology Transfer,You will also study the economic benefits of technology transfer. By using various resources to gather information on technology transfer, for example, you may be asked in your face-to-face sessio
4、n with your teacher to prepare a presentation that demonstrates how technology is transferable, its potential for new applications, and its benefits.,Technology Transfer,The National Technology Transfer Center (NTTC) has worked with NASA since 1989 providing the services and capabilities needed to m
5、eet the changing needs of NASA for managing intellectual property and creating technology partnerships.,Technology Transfer,Working with NASA Field Centers all across the United States, the NTTC assesses technologies and creates partnerships that leverage research efforts and maximize product-develo
6、pment opportunities. By guiding innovations from the lab to the marketplace, the NTTC helps to bring useful new products to all Americans.,Technology Transfer,Smoke detectors, CT scanners, global positioning systems, the cordless drill. These products and thousands more are results of NASA technolog
7、y transfer. The NTTC provides a crucial link in this process by connecting NASA with companies that can commercialize federally funded technologies.,Technology Transfer,Technology transfer occurs when a new user applies an existing innovation developed for one purpose in a different function. Windmi
8、lls and solar systems are examples of technology transfer.,Technology Transfer,There are thousands of products which have made the transition from space-related products to common use.These are a few examples.,Technology Transfer,Spin-offs are products which have undergone a technology transfer proc
9、ess from research to public use. These uses may be direct or indirect. Spin-offs are recognized as important products and a concerted effort is being put forth on behalf of NASA and other agencies and corporations to introduce spin-offs into both private industry and commercial use.,Technology Trans
10、fer,Spin-offs are all around us. Most spin-offs usually go unrecognized and unappreciated. They are a part of every facet of our culture and pop up most in the areas of: Household Safety Health and Medicine Communications Computer Technology Environmental Management,Technology Transfer,Marshall Spac
11、e Flight Center used technology from astronaut space suits to improve the safety of firefighter attire. This new attire is lightweight, fire-resistant, and heat-protective.,Technology Transfer,Sometimes spin-offs are things that we could not live without, such as satellites for communications, broad
12、casting, and weather forecasting. Often they are simple things, like saran wrap or aluminum foil. Sometimes they help us have fun by improving upon designs for sports equipment. Spin-offs are everywhere and they are everything.,Technology Transfer,The following is a very brief sampling of a few of t
13、he spin-offs that make our lives healthier, more fun, and safer. Nutritional Products from Space Research Ski Boots Cardiac Monitor Night Vision Camera Scratch-Resistant Lenses for Glasses,Technology Transfer,The influence of the space program has by now become so persuasive and is so quickly assimi
14、lated into our living patterns that we tend to take much of it for granted.,Technology Transfer,The Technology Transfer Program at NASA helps business take advantage of NASA research to benefit technologies in the home, in hospitals, at the mall, at the airport, in the sports stadium, in museums, on
15、 farms, for science, at the firehouse, and for the environment.,Technology Transfer,The transfer of technology from one society to another can cause cultural, social, economic, and political changes affecting both societies to varying degrees.,Technology Transfer,Sharing methods to increase food pro
16、duction and preservation can alter a countrys living habits in significant ways. For example, the idea for developing flash freezing, a method to freeze foods that preserves the flavor, appearance, and nutritional valve, was based on how the people of Labrador preserved their food.,Technology Transf
17、er,The resulting invention, frozen food that is ready to heat and eat, has considerably changed the living habits and culture of many societies.,Technology Transfer Summary,Technology transfer or spin-offs is the transfer of ideas, information, methods, procedures, techniques, tools, or technology f
18、rom the developers to potential users Many technology transfers or spin-offs come from developments in technology from NASA Spin-offs are all around us. Most spin-offs usually go unrecognized and unappreciated The influence of the space program has by now become so persuasive and is so quickly assimilated into our living patterns that we tend to take much of it for granted,
