TECHNOLOGY & APPLICATIONS
ASR is taking a three-tiered approach to the market. Our plan is to start generating revenues with the SRS 1.0 system architecture and reinvest it in engineering, development and high-level certification of the more advanced SRS 2.0 and TriChute systems. |
Level 1/ Product 1: Smart Recovery System: Pilot Advisory (SRS 1.0)
SRS 1.0 is an in-flight advisory system that is the foundation for all of ASR’s advanced products. SRS 1.0 brings all sensors/monitoring systems in GA aircraft into one black box that continuously diagnoses flight status, alerts the pilot to problems with any device or system present on the aircraft and outlines corrective action. Systems include fire suppression, flight control, airbags etc. Responsibility for reacting to the alerts rests with pilots. Minimal FAA certification requirements.

Level 2/ Product 2: Smart Recovery System: Safety Equipment Activation (SRS 2.0)
A more advanced system that builds on SRS 1.0 architecture by alerting the pilot but, if pilot does not respond in appropriate timeframe, SRS 2.0 takes action to rectify the emergency situation. It engages “envelope protection” by restoring the aircraft to a straight and level attitude employing existing autopilot servos and automatically deploys other safety devices or systems present on the aircraft. Among the systems that may be deployed is the single-parachute Ballistic Recovery System. Higher-level FAA certification required.
|
Level 3/ Product 3: TriChute Safe Landing System
Builds on SRS 1.0 and 2.0. If an emergency situation cannot be corrected by the SRS 2.0, and a catastrophic situation persists, the SRS will deploy the TriChute Safe Landing System as a final measure. This system activates a series of ballistic systems that separate the passenger compartment from the fuel-containing wings and deploys three parachutes that bring the passengers and wings down in separate, controlled level landings.
