The Advanced Sensing and Optical Measurement Branch is responsible for research and development of experimental measurement and sensing techniques for aerospace research applications. The Advanced Sensing and Optical Measurement Branch is comprised of an experienced, diverse research staff with expertise ranging from analytical chemistry to optical physics to advanced sensors and actuators. The Advanced Sensing and Optical Measurement Branch has over a dozen laboratories with a myriad of research topics being pursued simultaneously. The goal of the Advanced Sensing and Optical Measurement Branch is to continue discovering and developing radical new techniques to allow aero researchers to measure and quantify all required aerodynamic properties associated with advanced vehicle concepts. The Advanced Sensing and Optical Measurement Branch will accomplish this goal by looking into non-intrusive, global, and time-dependent sensing methods.
