ADTV elevator sensor

01 January 1970

13th September 2011

Cooperating with ADTV (Israel), Entacore Electronics has produced an advanced elevator sensor capable of determining floor levels without communicating with the building's elevator interface.

This was achieved with inertial sensors and infra-red refelectors.

Similar solutions have been designed, but none come can achieve consistent results for a large number of floors.

The AIM ACCEL will soon retail for model rocket applications.

AIM XTRA doppler ejection

01 January 1970

10th July 2011

We have just completed a doppler ejection test with the AIM XTRA (our GPS rocket tracking solution).

To perform the ejection at apogee, the AIM XTRA used doppler shift information from the GPS sattelites to determine accurate velocity (+- 0.5 m/s).

With accurate velocity, apogee ejection becomes trivial! As an added bonus, the maximum altitude is not limited by the atomosphere like barometric bassed altimeters.

We believe this is a first for a commercial model rocket flight computer!
