SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Crossbow Technology, Inc., a leading developer of Inertial Systems for commercial, general aviation and military applications is always inspired, and sometimes amazed, by the unique and innovative ways that its products are used.
In a recent scientific investigation conducted on the mountains of Utah, researchers used a Crossbow solid-state Inertial Measurement Unit to capture the rate and acceleration data required to characterize the dynamic forces inside an avalanche. This data will help in developing a model to better understand the injuries that might be sustained by a human victim, and to help ski patrols find a victim more quickly.
