Aerospace Instrumentation Brochure

Modern aerospace instrumentation systems can be highly complex, and it can be difficult to know how to meet program needs. It’s not unusual for requirements to change during a campaign and cause significant delays, and data must be captured reliably no matter what – otherwise expensive additional flights will be needed, or months of program data could be lost. Read the aerospace instrumentation brochure to learn how to reduce risk with commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) solutions.
