The U.S. Navy has awarded an SBIR Phase II contract to Invocon for UVOSPS (Un-tethered Velocity of Sound Profiling Sensor), a system to measure the water column sound velocity.
Invocon has developed two systems for the Navy directly related to aircraft health monitoring and evaluation.
The
Wireless Airborne Instrumentation System (WAIS™)
was developed for the Naval Air Warfare Center at
the Patuxent River Naval Air Station in Maryland.
The WAIS system replaces the wires between various
test sensors and existing analog telemetry equipment
on rotary and fixed wing aircraft. This
tightly synchronous, wireless link greatly reduces
test preparation time and extends analog sensor
placements on rotor hubs or other extreme locations.
Invocon developed the Advanced Capabilities Initiative (ACI)
system with Penn State Advanced Research Laboratory
on a project sponsored by the Office of Naval
Research. This system was designed to perform
remote machinery diagnostics and prognostics on
engine components or bearings.
U.S. Army
Invocon co-developed BodyLAN, a multi-unit wireless system to measure pulse and breathing rates in humans. This system was designed as a proof-of-concept test for remote troop health monitoring in the field.
U.S. Air Force
For the Air Force Air Armament Center, Invocon developed the
Wireless Autonomous Telemetry System (WATS™).
This synchronous, real-time, wireless data acquisition
system was designed to aid in the flight-testing of
aircraft.
