Case Study: AeroLab Tech achieves precision aerodynamic sensing with Advanta Design

AeroLab Tech builds a field-ready aerodynamic sensor with Advanta Design in 2020

Advanta Design partnered with AeroLab Tech on the mechanical design of an aerodynamic sensor for cyclists. The challenge was to create a durable, accurate, and aerodynamically efficient sensor that could be seamlessly integrated onto a bike and provide reliable real-world data outside of a laboratory wind tunnel setting.

The solution from Advanta Design focused on optimizing the sensor with lightweight, rugged materials and a one-piece seal to protect against water ingress. They reduced the part count to enhance reliability and ease of manufacturing, utilizing RTV casting and 3D printing for intricate components. The result was a field-ready, precision sensor that helps cyclists optimize their performance, successfully moving testing from the wind tunnel to real-world conditions.
