Motion Platforms for Flight Simulators
From MTS Sensors
 

 

These longer stroke length applications are a natural fit for MTS Temposonics position sensors. In this industry, it is imperative that the motion simulator reacts to the training pilot’s inputs so there is little difference between the cockpit motion and that of an actual aircraft. This can only be achieved with the highest precision and responsiveness provided by Temposonics sensors. Another frequent requirement of this application is the ability to sense absolute velocity. Our sensors can provide both position and velocity within the same sensor.


Products & Services
Motion control software uses advanced algorithms for programming, monitoring, and optimizing digital motion control products.
Oil sensors and oil analyzers are used in automotive or industrial machinery applications to sense oil levels, and check for contamination, and particulates, viscosity and/or temperature.
Humidity measurement instruments test for absolute humidity, relative humidity, or dew point in air.
Joystick controllers use potentiometric, inductive or photoelectric sensing systems and/or switches to translate joystick motion into an output signal.
Inertial and gyro systems use a combination of accelerometers and angular rate sensors (gyroscopes) to detect altitude, location, and motion. They may also be capable of detecting attitude, position, velocity, temperature, or magnetic field.
