Patent Portfolio

AMA's patent portfolio demonstrates the wide array of capabilities and expertise AMA provides to its customers. Innovating with colleagues and customers enables pathways for technologies to get outside of the gates.

Actively Stabilized Drogue Refueling Systems (ASDRS)

Actively stabilizes hose and drogue, air-to-air refueling systems during operations

Deployable Sheet Material Systems and Methods

Systems for use in stowing and deploying sheet material in space and on Earth; possible use with military and research outposts, rapid disaster relief and/or outdoor recreation.

Extendable Solar Array for a Spacecraft System

Extendable solar arrays provide a simple, easy-to-integrate, light-weight, high-power, and robust means of power to an spacecraft

Gossamer Apparatus and Systems for use with Spacecraft

Increases surface area of a spacecraft via solar sail, in order to decelerate, modify orbit or de-orbit, for aerobraking, and/or to lower the apogee of the orbit of the spacecraft

Inflatable Drop Stitch Decelerator

Designed structure for Hypersonic Inflatable Aerodynamic Decelerators (HIAD)

Polyhedral Geofences

Polyhedral geofences can be generated from point cloud data such as high-fidelity lidar data providing a reduction in data that may allow for real-time processing in vehicles.

Optically Stimulated Electron Emission (OSEE) Apparatus and Adsorbate Analysis using OSEE

Probe collects optically stimulated electron emission to inspect chemical reactions on a surface

Super Resolutions Systems and Methods

Using one or more super-resolution algorithms capable of converting low-resolution images into high-resolution
