Instrumar Limited

$735,000.00

Electromagnetic Technology Platform Product Development Evolution

FY 2022-23 · 2022-06-01

Summary
This project is focused on product development of both the Instrumar Fiber System (IFS) and the Instrumar Flight Ice Monitoring System (IFIMS) technologies. The applications share a common knowledge base that allows the technical team to cross fertilize challenges and solutions. The fiber and ice development objectives overlap on a number of fronts including lowering costs, and increasing value and functionality to the firm's offering(s). For fiber, this should increase customer demand and open new market segments for their product. For ice this should help attract potential partner(s) to take responsibility for overall system design, regulatory certification, OEM/aircraft specific certification, and marketing/sales.

Description (French)
Ce projet est axé sur la mise au point de produits des technologies du système de fibres Instrumaret du système de surveillance des glaces en vol Instrumar. Les applications partagent une base de connaissances commune qui permet à l'équipe technique de croiser les défis et les solutions. Les objectifs de développement de la fibre et de la glace se chevauchent sur un certain nombre de fronts, notamment la réduction des coûts et l'augmentation de la valeur et de la fonctionnalité de l'offre de l'entreprise. Pour la fibre, cela devrait augmenter la demande des clients et ouvrir de nouveaux segments de marché pour le produit. Pour la glace, cela devrait permettre d'attirer des partenaires potentiels pour prendre la responsabilité de la conception globale du système, de la certification réglementaire, de la certification propre aux FEO/aéronefs, et du marketing/des ventes.
