New Wake Turbulence Technology Makes Microbursts Visible
A new system generates real time acoustic technology images of transient aircraft wake turbulence in detail; and the system has been in use at Melbourne’s Tullamarine Airport for two years. The system uses acoustic technique to measure sudden downdrafts or micro-bursts, and cells of air turbulence in a plane’s wake. The technology provides accurate visible measures of transient heretofore invisible forces.The impetus behind the technology is to translate severe wake turbulence and wind shear events in real time to high definition to advance aviation safety and airport efficiency. The patented aircraft wake and wind-shear mapping technology is being developed and is owned by the Sondei Group
