For Paraglider Performance
The Aerodynamic Mesh Sensor provides aerodynamic measurement data for the first time – for greater flight safety and significantly extended flight time.
Innovative measuring system
for safe flying
Several AERODYNAMIC MESH SENSORS are attached to the paraglider. Together, these form a sensor data network. This sensor system detects airflow conditions and calculates flight and safety-related information. Information that was previously only simulated in aerodynamic research can now be used for your personal flying experience for the first time.
UNIQUE ADVANTAGE
Predictive stable warning
A stall can occur quickly in emergency situations or due to lack of experience. The predictive stall warning detects this early on and alerts the pilot.
THERMAL LOCALISATION
‘Falling out of thermals’ or ‘circling around the core’ no longer happens. Six pressure and temperature sensors precisely determine the gradient for accurate localisation of a vertical current.
MICRO BACKFLOWS
Even simple curved flight requires a highly complex sequence of movements. Our sensor network detects even the smallest flow disturbances. You gain precise insights into your flight behaviour and can significantly extend your flight time.

Braking on one or both sides changes the angle of attack of the paraglider relative to the airflow. If the flight speed is too low or the angle of attack is too high, the backflow spreads across the upper wing from back to front.
The sensors are activated as soon as a reverse flow occurs. The green measurement bars indicate minor micro-disturbances; as soon as the bar turns red, caution is advised as a flow separation is imminent.
Originally derived from aerodynamic research, the pilot receives important information about the pressure distribution on the upper sail. This is where it gets exciting – let yourself be surprised.

Safe zone
Micro backflow
Micro-backflows on the outer sail occur frequently and are not dangerous. Excessive initiation of a turn or brief overbraking can activate the sensor (red). Similarly, turbulence caused by thermals can briefly trigger a sensor. However, if the backflow in the SAFE ZONE lasts for more than two seconds, it will gradually spread into the CAUTION ZONE.
caution zone
Midi backflow
If reverse flow occurs in the CAUTION ZONE, the pilot should already be alert. Prolonged overbraking on one or both sides already reduces the stability of the wing. Control forces can be significantly reduced. The internal pressure of the wing decreases progressively. A wing stall can still be prevented at this point. However, if the situation does not change, the backflow will reach the STALL ZONE.
stable zone
macro backflow
When macro-backflow occurs, the flight speed has already been reduced for several seconds. The angle of attack is very large. The control forces have already decreased further. A one-sided or two-sided stall can occur at any time. Unless landing is imminent, the pilot is in mortal danger.
For the first time, pilots can see local flow fields and angle of attack changes with AERODYNAMIC MESH SENSORS.
