As Scotty said, "How do we know he didn't invent the thing?" Referring to Dr. Nichols.

If I had to guess I would say the nothing ever became of it. It was worked on for a while then all funding for long term projects was cut in favor of low hanging fruit that could be completed in a year. Soon after that the company was bought out and it's assets were liquidated.
