Solid State Event Initiator
Invocon’s Solid State Initiator (SSI) provides highly reliable and safe initiation capabilities for energetic devices (squibs). It is a solid state replacement for Invocon’s historic work horse – the Capacitive Discharge Initiator (CDI). The SSI replaces the mechanical devices of the CDI with solid state electronics while maintaining the same levels of protection for fail-safe…

Reentry Breakup Record – Wireless Temperature Sensor
Invocon produced a wireless temperature system that was incorporated into the Reentry Breakup Recorder (REBR), a design that was conceived and constructed by The Aerospace Corporation engineers. REBR is a basketball-sized device that is launched into orbit aboard a larger spacecraft and then intentionally deorbited when a host spacecraft returns to Earth. The REBR gathers…
