Rackmount data acquisition system does data analytics via cloud connection

October 3, 2018 By Lee Teschler Leave a Comment

data acquisition

The Third Generation Black Diamond Rackmount (BDR-3) measurement and monitoring system collects data from precisely synchronized analog channels and processes the data with advanced state-of-the-art Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) technology. It connects to a real-time Key Value Store (KVS) and to AlgoCentral cloud to provide real-time data analytics, processing, and graphing. The BDR-3 acquires […]

Miniature data recorder rated for IP68

August 8, 2017 By Lee Teschler Leave a Comment

DTS SLICE IP68

The new SLICE IP68 data acquisition system is designed to capture physical signals in challenging environments. Targeted at applications with size or mass constraints, SLICE IP68’s 60×60-mm footprint makes it easy to embed in most test articles. The rugged housing is impervious to shock, water, and dust, making SLICE a candidate for testing in inclement […]

Characterizing sinusoidal signals with equations

May 12, 2017 By David Herres Leave a Comment

sinusoidal

Mathematics is the language we use to understand and communicate our knowledge about electrical relationships. It is easy to get overwhelmed by some of the complexity involved. The best approach is to begin at the most fundamental level and take it from there. Consider the realm of sinusoidal signals. First, a definition: A sinusoidal signal […]

Tiny recorders let crash test dummies take one for the Gipper

April 19, 2017 By Lee Teschler Leave a Comment

DTS crash test football helmet dummies

The University of Alabama at Birmingham’s (UAB) Department of Mechanical Engineering is developing new testing methodologies using crash test dummies to improve helmet testing and ultimately reduce concussions and traumatic brain injuries (TBI). In that regard, they are putting sensors and recorders inside crash test dummy heads to get biofidelic impact data. Miniature DTSSLICE NANO […]

In search of accuracy: Instrument calibration using frequency standards

March 1, 2017 By David Herres Leave a Comment

cesium clock

Accuracy as it relates to the measurement of electrical signals would seem to be a simple, straight-forward concept. In the simple case, a reading as shown in a digital display could be compared to that of a perfectly accurate instrument. The discrepancy, if any, could be expressed as a fraction of a percent. The difficulty […]

In search of accurate measurements — The speed of light

February 22, 2017 By David Herres Leave a Comment

interferometer

If an instrument is to give accurate measurements, it must first have been calibrated to a standard. In metrology, a standard (or etalon) is an object, system, or experiment that bears a defined relationship to a unit of measurement of a physical quantity. Standards are the fundamental reference for a system of weights and measures, […]
