Small torque fluctuations inside a gearbox, electric motor or driveline can create noticeable noise and vibration. Yet engineers often struggle to measure these events because the component may simultaneously transmit thousands of newton metres of torque. A conventional torque sensor may …
Modern military and specialist helicopters can carry sophisticated avionics, sensors, communications equipment and mission systems. Depending on the aircraft and its role, many of these systems generate data that may need to be captured, time-synchronised, processed or securely stored during flight. …
Modern Military Operations Demand Computing at the Tactical Edge Modern defence operations generate enormous volumes of information from sensors, communications equipment, autonomous platforms and mission systems. Surveillance cameras, radar, electronic warfare sensors, GPS receivers, unmanned vehicles and battlefield networks all produce …

A Practical Guide for Maintenance and Repair Teams When a printed circuit board fails, the first question many technicians ask is, “Where are the schematics?” Unfortunately, in many industrial environments, the answer is often the same: unavailable. Whether maintaining legacy manufacturing …
As defence and aerospace platforms increasingly adopt AI-enabled processing at the edge, selecting the right embedded computing architecture has become critical to performance, power efficiency and SWaP requirements. This whitepaper examines the evolution of rugged GPU technology and also compares NVIDIA …
Metromatics is pleased to announce the availability of the latest Spectra Defense Technologies portfolio. Providing Australian and New Zealand defence organisations with access to a comprehensive range of rugged data recorders, mission computers, encrypted storage systems, displays, and integrated C5ISR solutions. …
High-resolution visualisation and mission-system integration for modern C5ISR applications across air, land and maritime environments. Metromatics is pleased to introduce the Spectra Defense Technologies Rugged 4K UHD Display Family to customers across Australia and New Zealand. Firstly, they are designed for …
Industrial maintenance teams are responsible for keeping production equipment running with minimal downtime. When circuit boards fail, troubleshooting must happen quickly—even when schematics are unavailable or equipment cannot be powered safely. Huntron power-off PCB diagnostic tools use Analog Signature Analysis (ASA). …
Embedded GPU processing is increasingly used in airborne and near-space sensing platforms. Especially, where size, weight, and power (SWaP) constraints limit conventional computing options. A recent example described by WOLF Advanced Technology is the PUEO stratospheric balloon mission operating above Antarctica. …
