Non-contact sensors in Bloodhound SSC ride height tests at Jaguar

摘要

Non-contact laser displacement sensors from Micro-Epsilon UK have performed flawlessly in on-vehicle ride height tests for the Bloodhound SSC Project. The tests, which took place on 11 February 2015, are part of the Bloodhound SSC Project - the 1000 mph land-speed record attempt that is scheduled to take place in 2016. The tests were carried out at the Jaguar Land Rover Gaydon Centre in Warwickshire. The site houses a design, research and development centre, as well as extensive test track facilities, and is used for the design and development of Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles.
