I am sure that the Japanese would be interested in learning everything they can about Bigelow's technology, since they are avid collectors of space technology.

The old can we buy one copy of your product and a set of plans so we can repair it. Two years later a Japanese version of the product is on sale at a cheaper price.

If so, Bigelow might complain, but noone else will...
On the other hand, the Japanese have hardly captured the commercial launch market, despite getting a head start when they began to license build Deltas back in the 1970s. I doubt that they would see commercial espionage as in their in best interests.
But Kibo only has two berthing ports and they're both occupied. Not sure if they'd be allow to use the node docking ports.

Like Kibo, would be a trade of services (ie power, berthing, maybe even launch services) for space with NASA.

I've been out of the loop in regards the Bigelow inflatable module but without Node 4 where would we put it? On Node 3?

The Bigelow module they proposed to NASA a few months back would have two docking ports. I'm assuming this is the same module they are proposing to the Japanese. It would go on the Kibo Pressurized Module where the Kibo Logistics Module is now. And the Logistics Module would dock to the other side of the Bigelow module.

Would it have clearance problems with the JEMRMS?

The design has changed per L2, I highly suggest reading that and signing up if you dont have it.

The famous story is that the Japanese license built Deltas, but improved the vehicle with a cryogenic upper stage. At some point, MacDac wanted to use the Japanese cryogenic stage on US Deltas, but the Japanese declined to provide the technology.

Or in this case, can we go to your assembly building and see your nice inflatable module?

To copy them they probably have to take the models apart.

You underestimate the capabilities of Japanese engineers when it comes to collection of industrial data.
