August 2022 — Crash Safety Data Recorder, Phase II
Safe was awarded a Phase II SBIR program by the U.S. Navy/NAVAIR to continue development and design of a device that can measure rotorcraft dynamics to support objectives for improving crash safety and crash survival. The Crash Safety Data Recorder (CSDR) design will be completed to a level of detail suitable for building a prototype system that meets key requirements, including reliability and low cost, in a small package with limits of size and weight as specified by the Navy. Additional research includes development of the CSDR through Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 6, which means product demonstration in a relevant environment.
