While looking at new products on GlobalSpec, I came across this sensor from Delta Metrics. Delta Metrics (a subsidiary of tecsis DBA) has created a single sensor to measure both static and dynamic pressure simultaneously, reducing the complexity of implementing an airspeed sensor. More information is available through Delta Metrics.

Comment by Scott Harris on January 3, 2012 at 1:44pm The static/dynamics terms in this case refer to the sensor bandwidth (i.e. DC-100 kHz), not to any ability of the sensor to measure static pressure and stagnation pressure simultaneously. You would still need two of these to make a pitot tube.

Season Two of the Trust Time Trial (T3) Contest has now begun. The third round was a reliablilty/aerial photography round for both planes and copters, which is now closed. Stay tuned for the next round, beginning soon.61 members
