Ignacio Fernández, Clue Technologies CEO, was today’s lecturer at the Masters in Intelligent Avionics organized by the University of Malaga (UMA).
The conference, held at the Industrial Engineering Polytechnic, presented the Clean Sky 2 R&D project Integrated Modular Avionics for Small Air Transport (IMASAT) to students and professors. The project is developed in consortium by two companies based in Malaga: AERTEC Solutions and Clue Technologies.
IMASAT project focuses on the design, manufacturing and qualification of a new Computing Node suitable to be used as Flight Control Computer for Small Air Transport (SAT). The aim of the research is to define and implement IMA (Integrated Modular Avionics) concept for SAT, so that European industry players will be able to adopt fly-by-wire (FBW) systems to reduce the weight of avionics systems, reduce maintenance operations and enhance safety by improving the human-machine interface and automatically help stabilize the aircraft.
During the conference, attendants were introduced about Horizon 2020 and Clean Sky 2 initiatives and the project objectives before moving into the technical details about the work carried out by Clue Technologies in the development of the computing nodes.
