NIST and Maryland TEDCO partner to encourage entrepreneurship.
2015-11-27 14:31:10| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
NIST will let Maryland Technology Development Corporation (TEDCO) administer NIST Science and Technology Entrepreneurship Program, which will offer anticipated 10 grants of up to $112,000 for specific project that can be completed within 12 months. Organizations will contribute resources, aid creation of start-up companies to license and commercialize NIST inventions, and host roundtables and workshops to increase awareness of entrepreneurship and technology commercialization opportunities.

NIST Draft Framework helps Cyber-Physical Systems developers.
2015-11-25 14:31:07| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Unmanned vehicles, intelligent buildings, cell phones, and fitness bracelets are cyber-physical systems. NIST has released a draft CPS Framework document intended to help manufacturers create new cyber-physical systems that can work seamlessly with other such smart systems that bridge physical and computational worlds. It outlines common attributes that its subparts share with other CPS devices, and indicates what it must do to interact successfully with broader CPS environment.

NIST Research Facility offers vehicle-specific material testing.
2015-11-23 14:31:08| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Instrument located in NIST's Center for Automotive Lightweighting (NACL) captures temperature changes and more during stress and strain of metal forming. Specifically, this research center specializes in measuring how new materials are strained in response to stresses of forming operations that shape them into hoods, fenders, door panels, and other parts. Center-supplied information also guides design decisions that impact performance, durability, and crashworthiness of future vehicles.

NIST Confirms Microscope Technique as valid nano-measurement tool.
2015-11-23 14:31:08| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Experiments have confirmed that one technique, developed several years ago at NIST, can enable optical microscopes to measure 3D shape of objects at nanometer-scale resolution. Results could make said technique, Through-focus Scanning Optical Microscopy (TSOM), useful for QC regarding manufacture of such nanoscale devices as next-generation microchips. In 3D shapes, TSOM can detect variations of <1 nm size among objects <50 nm across.
