From the February 17, 2007 NIST Tech Beat:
A new report from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), An Assessment of the United States Measurement System: Addressing Measurement Barriers to Accelerate Innovation, details results of the agency’s first-ever assessment of the capacity of the nation’s measurement infrastructure—a large, diverse collection of private and public-sector […]

Agilent Technologies has just launched a new, quarterly technical publication, the Agilent Measurement Journal. The goal of the journal is to help engineers stay on top of the latest test and measurement technologies and Agilent solutions. It will cover a wide range of industries, including aerospace and defense, wireless communications and industrial, and feature articles […]

Agile-Link wireless nodes can now stream data at rates up to 4 kHz. This increase in sample rate allows them to be used in automotive testing applications, such as impact and crash testing and vibration monitoring and modal analysis. The sensors use an open serial protocol that enables users to develop high speed applications with […]

The HOST Cell Control System (CCS) consists of a fan-less processor, compact flash storage, and a real-time operating system. This design eliminates the three most common hardware failures: processor overheating, hard drive failure, and virus susceptibility. The system is compatible with any dynamometer system and can control the dynamometer, fan, robot (throttle or throttle & […]

Polytec, a manufacturer of optical measurement systems for macro and microstructure vibration testing, now offers a non-contact vibration and topography measurement service. The service uses the company’s non-contact measurement technology and, if needed, the expert advice of a Polytec applications engineer.
Test structures are characterized with 1-D and 3-D scanning laser vibrometers, single-point vibrometers, microstructure (MEMS) […]
