By GlobalDataTelemetry is an automated process that transmits measurements wirelessly from a remote object to a command station. It is also used in defence and civilian applications such as space exploration and rocketry.
The solution is designed to facilitate real-time monitoring of environmental conditions in flying objects.
In case of military flight test missions, aeronautical telemetry helps monitor data collected from on-board instrumentation over a radio frequency link and can be used to ensure test pilot safety.
The company also provides precision tracking-based communications in the areas of satellite communications, telemetry and remote sensing, in addition to an airborne audio management solution.
