To test whether its guidance computer could correct for chassis distortion during firing, a light armored vehicle was instrumented with gages and accelerometers to measure the relative motion of structural components. A SixD engineer put together the field instrumentation, collected data during a series of firing tests, and validated the data before delivering it to the customer.

Benefit:  Cost effective custom solution for measuring strain under challenging operating conditions.
