ProcessorInvocon, Inc. - Conroe, Texas
Innovation Use of Wireless Technology to
expedite installation of VHM instrumentation and
data acquisition systems on test aircraft.
Accomplishments Phase I a prototype operating
system installed and demonstrated on a General
Aviation aircraft. Phase II a more advanced
modular wireless data acquisition system,
integrated with Vehicle Health Monitoring (VHM)
analysis software.
System Wing Installation
Government/Science Applications Military
airframe VHM for aging infrastructure.
Reduced weight of VHM for spacecraft. Reduced
weight for flight test systems. Open
architecture for custom data processing
algorithms.
Commercialization Real-time data acquisition
for aircraft flight testing. Vehicle Health
Monitoring of airframe structures. Integration
with smaller MEMS type sensor to achieve more
flexibility. System can be programmed to work
with commercial industry interfaces or customized
to meet specific applications.
