Internet Data Acquisition
M. Matoushek · 2006
This paper shall present the results thus far of Invocon's Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II project for NASA Stennis Space Center entitled the Wireless Ethernet-based Data Acquisition System (WEBDAS), as well as describe two flight system developments underway for the International Space Station based on this technology; EWIS and HDMAX. Our recent efforts have focused on the concept of enhancing wireless data acquisition by making collected data available to a user or feedback system through standardized IT resources over the Internet, Internet data acquisition (IDA). The goals of IDA are three fold; hardware modularity, software modularity, and pervasiveness of data. The design of IDA has created a three prong attack for developing a quick to market data integration solution; core application and services, Web application, and a sound documentation methodology.
