The tool Energid proposes will reduce cost and improve schedule in NASA's lunar and planetary missions through digital testing throughout mission conception and planning. It will also support automation of robotic systems through real-time randomized optimization during mission execution. The value provided through these applications will lead to additional work for NASA. Energid will provide support for the new software's application on upcoming missions both as a prime contractor and as a supporting subcontractor to large NASA prime contractors.
To its commercial customers, Energid licenses its software technology through its Actin toolkit and integrated robotic products. Actin is delivered as libraries and header files that can be compiled into new software. This form of Energid's technology has found wide application in software for space, manufacturing, entertainment, agriculture, nuclear energy, and oil exploration. Energid provides services to support the application of Actin. The advanced level of simulation-based testing provided by the new software developed during this SBIR project will enhance these commercial activities. Energid will license the new software and provide services to support it. Energid will additionally provide the software as a supporting tool for tasking its integrated robotic products.
