  • Synchronous sample rates 5-256 kS/s (up to 100 kHz bandwidth)
  • A variety of conditioning options
  • Synchronous sampling across multiple Hummingbird II units using LVDS
  • Full Core i7 CPU built-in to allow autonomous operation
  • Small and rugged for test vehicle mounting
  • Large (128, 256, 512 GB) Solid State Disk for data storage
  • < 4 kg weight

Hummingbird features a Gigabit Ethernet connection, allowing acquired data to be streamed to laptop or PC. It can also be used as a standalone data logger, with its built-in CPU and disk drive.

The unit is supplied in an ultra-rugged milled aluminium housing for use in close proximity to the test article.

The Hummingbird is completely compatible with HGL's existing range of data acquisition, real-time monitoring, analysis and archiving systems.
