Micro sensors aim to deliver steadier air data by reducing vibration and pitot-tube blockage sensitivity UK/Canadian technology proposes micro-sensor approaches to improve air-data consistency, targeting two common degradation paths: vibration sensitivity and pitot-tube blockage. The concept is positioned as a more reliable route to stable measurements that can reduce downstream effects on flight-critical performance.
