Process
control and guidance solutions
The first step is to define the target of the development. Based on the target we start to build up a project plan together and specify workpackages and requirements in detail as the starting point for the development of the first prototype. The most important skill, besides technical excellence, is mainly a very close relation during the development process and the possibility of quick and precise changes if necessary.
snowball - integration example
Initial situation
During an appointment with the Federal Research and Training Centre for Forests, Natural Hazards and Landscape the topic of measuring the movement of avalanche layers emerged. The researchers arrange field tests regularly in which avalanches are created and movements are observed. Because our IMU can measure movements the researchers envisioned utilizing several IMU’s together with an avalanche to verify the movements.
The challenge
To use our IMU in an avalanche was something pretty new for us; however we took the challenge to adapt our IMU to the customer’s needs!
Snowball under construction
In the first step of the project we adapted our technology to the requirements of the Federal Research and Training Centre for Forests, Natural Hazards and Landscape. The second step was to design and build an encasement that is suitable to the conditions that exist in an avalanche.
Result
During this project we built an entirely new prototype to perfectly meet the needs of the researchers.
