Product Development
Our product development experience spans a wide
range of technical challenges and fields of application. The
developments have included mechanical, electronic, optical, acoustic,
thermoelectric, magnetic, computer, and software technologies in
projects that ranged from demonstrations to final product design.
Listed below are several of the assignments
completed involving scientific, consumer, marine, medical, and industrial
products.
|
 | Design of a high intensity electron gun for use in a
proposed space station contamination sensor. |
|
