AEROBALLISTICS MODULAR MODALITIES (AMM): A MODULAR INSTRUMENTATION SYSTEM FOR PROJECTILES

Abstract

Munition telemetry engineers are posed with the challenge of developing ruggedized, precision instrumentation for various projectile bodies. Much of the hardware is custom, and engineers must address numerous concurrent electrical and mechanical integration issues within a limited schedule. The Aeroballistics Modular Modalities (AMM) system is a miniaturized, modular, open-architecture platform which provides a pre-made, tailorable system for developing projectile instrumentation electronics. The system excels at capturing projectile dynamics data, where the sensors can be chosen a-la-carte. The system is highly-customizable, and can be tailored to any instrumentation package.
