Case Study: Regent achieves real-time flight-ready telemetry and faster test review with Nominal

How REGENT Built a Flight-Ready Telemetry Backbone with Nominal

The customer, Regent, is a company developing an innovative electric Seaglider vessel. Their challenge was to access and interpret high-speed telemetry data for both real-time safety decisions during live tests and comprehensive post-test analysis, all without diverting engineering resources to build a costly in-house data stack. They partnered with the vendor, Nominal, to use its unified industrial data platform.

Nominal provided a solution that delivered live, sub-300ms latency telemetry to engineers and robust tools for comparing new data against historical tests. This allowed Regent to make immediate go/no-go calls and compress multi-day analysis into minutes. The results included accelerated test cycles, successful foil testing with automated safety checks, and saving months of development time by avoiding the need to build internal tooling.
