The PD&D Design Daily staff had a chance to speak with the company and shine some light on this “exceptional innovation.”
PD&D Design Daily: What sets the product apart from the competition?
MicroStrain: It’s the only wireless sensor that can sample bursts of data from three simultaneous channels at 100 kHz.
Design Daily: How has the industry responded to the product? What applications has it been used in?
MicroStrain: The product was developed in response to customer requests and is already generating a lot of interest.
It is used for condition based monitoring of machinery to check for bearing wear, lubrication problems and the health of gearboxes. It can also be used in impact and crash test applications.
Design Daily: How does your product “demonstrate exceptional innovation, integration, ease of use, and address real needs?”
MicroStrain: HS-LINK is the first high-speed wireless node that can log multiple bursts of data at up to 100 kHz.
Applications include condition based monitoring of rotating machinery to determine bearing wear, lubrication problems and gearbox health.
Design Daily: Do you see potential to repeat and receive another glass statue next year?
MicroStrain: Yes, we have now won 10 Golds and 2 Silvers. Our company is very focused on hiring innovative engineers and we foresee the level of innovation increasing over time.
