FROM LABORATORY TO LIFE

CARS

Onboard computer

If the onboard computer reports that systems are all OK when starting the car, thank the NASA engineers. Although the automotive industry has improved the process, this is nothing but a license about a technology by NASA. Currently, the NASA Glenn Research Center develops simple learning functions and adaptable elements that can be placed in small hardware systems, including space instruments, implantable medical devices and stochastic observers.

GOOD WEATHER

Weather forecasts

Weather forecast is more and more precise. In some locations it is possible to state with almost certainty the exact time that raining, snowing or wind blowing will begin. In addition to these data, in many cases, being obtained by NASA satellites, most of the algorithms employed in the weather complex analyses were created by the agency over the last decades.

IN THE CLOUD

Data storage

One decade ago, NASA began the project for organizing its sites, either of contents for the internet or its internal network. The goal was standardizing methods and tools for its developments on the web. The solution led to the
