Highlights

Miniature Distributed DAQ

Small-size, low-mass data acquisition units designed to be directly integrated into ATDs and other confined measurement locations, offering flexible configuration options.

Precision Time Synchronization

Built-in IEEE 1588 PTPv2 support helps align large, distributed channel counts with precise timing across the system.

Direct-Mount Sensor Integration

Supports cable-free direct-mount configurations for load cells and 6DOF sensors, reducing complexity and setup time. Reduces in-dummy DAS cabling and sensors by up to 75%.

High-Bandwidth Variant

SLICE6 HB supports higher-bandwidth measurements for demanding military and injury biomechanics testing with the U.S. Army WIAMan (Warrior Injury Assessment Manikin) vertical-load ATD

Applications

SLICE6 is built for compact distributed measurements where timing accuracy, low mass, and close-to-
sensor placement are critical. Its Ethernet architecture reduces cabling while supporting precise
synchronization across large channel counts.
Applications include:
