FLIGHT TESTING AT MACH 5

SOUNDING ROCKETS AND GLIDE VEHICLES

The Challenge:

  • Collecting physical measurements on hypersonic vehicles for lab, sled and in-flight testing
  • Reliably capturing data for launch forces, vibration, and wide temperature extremes
  • Short development cycles require expedited testing
  • Size, weight and power constraints
  • Ability to connect with existing Ethernet-based comm systems
  • Slip ring costs and issues limiting channel counts
  • Complex set-ups including long cable runs) 

The Solution:

  • Rugged, low mass DTS data acquisition systems and sensors
  • Standalone modules can be installed near sensors, saving cost and development time
  • Modular and portable, easily configurable for rapid deployment
  • Supports a variety of sensors including IEPE, plus built-in sensor options
  • SWaP-C (size, weight, power, and cost) optimized DAU
  • Store in place reliability, plus real-time streaming
  • Easy system set-up with intuitive software
