2018 Technology Transfer Report: Innovation in Action
- Lawrence Livermore National Lab. (LLNL), Livermore, CA (United States)
Inside LLNL’s gates, our scientists and engineers create the spark, which moves onward, beyond LLNL, to startup companies in nearby Silicon Valley, and across the nation, where entrepreneurs and investors adapt our technology to solve a broad range of challenges. With this year’s report regarding LLNL’s technology transfer activities, we highlight many of these exciting initiatives. For example, we are pioneering new advanced manufacturing techniques that can produce precisely calibrated optics for lasers, microscopes, and cameras. We are collaborating with industry to test new solutions to our nation’s energy challenges, such as a large-scale, subsurface energy storage system that can dispatch stored energy to the power grid whenever it’s needed. Our innovators are leveraging their expertise in optics to transform the safety of self-driving cars, using thousands of tiny mirrors to spot potential hazards.
