Non-contact Measuring Tool for Precision Measurement

NIST Inventors
Josh Gordon
This invention introduces a non-contact measuring tool designed for precise measurement of objects without physically touching them. It uses advanced optical and sensor technologies to capture accurate data on an object's dimensions and surface characteristics. The tool enhances measurement

Next-Gen Laser Radar (LIDAR) for High-Accuracy Applications

NIST Inventors
Ian Coddington and William C. Swann
This invention is a new kind of laser radar (LIDAR) that uses two special lasers called femtosecond fiber lasers. One laser sends out a signal, and the other helps detect the signal that bounces back from a target. It combines two types of measurements—time-of-flight and interferometry—to measure

Non-Cryogenic Hydrogen Storage At Low-Pressure

NIST Inventors
Taner Yildirim and Craig Brown
NIST has developed a new metal-organic framework (MOF) that can be utilized for stationary hydrogen storage for long-duration energy supply. It has fast delivery rates, displays significant uptake at non-cryogenic temperatures, and does not require high pressure. Additionally, given the MOF’s
