Abstract :
A technology that allows the application of microfabrication techniques to wind tunnel experimentation is an onboard data acquisition system, the modular data acquisition and recording system (MDARS), by TeSCO, Inc. Both the conceptual developments possible in advanced experimentation and the specific technology which starts with the TeSCO developed MDARS approach are addressed. The MDARS hardware is discussed in detail, and possibilities for further development are suggested
