The primary objective of research in the Embedded and Adaptive Computing group is to explore new unanswered problems. Sometimes, research results in solutions that have commercial potential. In such cases, the Office of Technology Commercialization (OTC) assists the transfer of inventions, created at UTD by faculty, staff and students, from the laboratory to the private sector for further development and commercialization (and “productization”). The OTC achieves this objective through its invention management process that includes: evaluating patentability and commercial feasibility of UTD inventions , protecting intellectual property (e.g., patenting), assessing options for commercialization, and, in appropriate cases, actively assisting the transfer of a technology to a commercial enterprise for further development .
