THE LICENSING PROCESS
SEARCH
Find the available technology relevant to your work. You can work directly with the GI or explore through Tech Link’s extensive IP database. If you want to learn more about a specific technology within the Rome Labs, we can get you in touch with the right people to learn more.
APPLY
Once you feel confident about the technology, we will work with you on filling out a licensing application for a specific technology.
LICENSE
The Air Force Research Laboratory Information Directorate (AFRL/RI) Office of Research and Technology Applications (ORTA) will work with you to negotiate a licensing agreement and the appropriate fees. This part of the process takes the longest, so please budget your time accordingly.
ACCESS
Once a licensing agreement is signed, the AFRL/RI ORTA will give you access to the technology to use.
COMMERICALIZE
Licensing AFRL/GI technology is just one step of a bigger journey to grow your business. At GI, we offer support to help you successfully commercialize your product or service.
FEATURED TECHNOLOGY
DC3 ADVANCED CARVER SUITE FOR DIGITAL FORENSICS CONTENT RECOVERY
Eoghan Casey, a world-renowned digital forensics scientist working for the DOD Cyber Crime Center has developed DC3 Advanced Carver, a modular software package for the salvaging of corrupted data files from almost any digital device.
SPECTRUM SENSING FALSIFICATION DETECTION SYSTEM
Air Force researchers have developed a sensing matrix to protect vulnerable cognitive radio network (CRN) systems from spectrum sensing falsification (SSF) attacks, such as spectrum spoofing, spectrum inversion and spectrum shifting.
RADAR COMBINING SYNTHETIC APERTURE MODE WITH MOVING TARGET IDENTIFICATION
Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is a form of radar that is used to create two- or three-dimensional images of objects, such as landscapes, and requires a wide bandwidth waveform. SAR uses the motion of the radar antenna over a target region to provide finer spatial resolution than conventional stationary beam-scanning radars.
