This federal contract award to Brimrose Technology Corp by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Ames Research Center is for the development of a small, low-power point spectrometer to be included in the Near Infrared Volatiles Spectrometer (NIRVSS) instrument.
The contract, valued at $3,317,448.00, is a Phase III Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) award that builds upon prior SBIR and STTR efforts by Brimrose to develop an acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF) spectrometer for the NIRVSS instrument. The NIRVSS instrument has been selected as a science and technology demonstration payload for a future lunar mission through NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) program. As part of this contract, Brimrose is responsible for delivering a fully functional spectrometer engineering test unit, as well as a bifurcated multi-fiber optical fiber cable to integrate the spectrometer with the NIRVSS observation bracket assembly. This is a total small business set-aside contract.
