Development of Memory Type Instrumentation Device for Measuring Data of Small Flying Object
We developed the memory storage type instrumentation device for measuring trajectory of small flying object. The instrumentation device is small enough to install into the flying object and has a 6-axis MEMS sensor and 3 AD channels for measuring flying data of object. In this paper, we specially focused on the measuring of flying trajectory of the sabot using developed device. The sabot which supports missile during carriage breaks away from missile by mechanical and aerodynamic force when missile gets out of canister. The flying trajectory of sabot should be designed not to collide with any equipments around the launcher. In order to find out the flying trajectory of sabot, the developed instrumentation device was adopted in experiment. We have proved effectiveness of the developed instrumentation device by comparing acquired results using the hi-speed camera.
