Evaluation of an Improved Parachute Test Data Acquisition System.

Abstract

This project confirms the feasibility of a sixteen channel, self-contained data acquisition system that would be suitable to store data obtained during a parachute performance evaluation drop. The overall system is discussed in modular fashion to allow generalization to other portable data acquisition systems that must accept data at high rates but over relatively short time intervals. The storage medium for the proposed system utilizes magnetic bubble memory devices. (Author)
