2019 TD&I Labs Winners Announced
NASA
Technology, Data and Innovation Labs (TD&I) announces its 2019
class of Information Technology research and development projects. TD&I
Labs empowers NASA's innovative employees to develop new capabilities that
will enhance and support NASA's ongoing needs. By leveraging a crowdsourcing/entrepreneurship
model and soliciting ideas from across NASA's brilliant workforce, NASA
is better poised to identify, develop and execute to satisfy
both near- and long-term needs. Of
this year’s 45 applications, TD&I Labs funded nine projects—one returning
and eight new projects—with a total funded cost of $203,000. Four of the
winning projects originated from NASA’s Johnson Space Center. To view all the applications for
