NPAS Toolkit

The NPAS toolkit enables the rapid creation of robust autonomous systems for applications such as

  • Integrated Systems Health Management (ISHM) including prognosis and diagnosis
  • Monitoring and control of equipment like computing, hydraulic, mechanical and electrical
  • Monitoring and control of sensors
  • Monitoring and control of entire systems, like electrical and flow systems
  • Failure mode effects analysis
