Description:
The advent of rotary-wing hoisting systems granted warfighters the ability to conduct rapid insertion and recovery missions, most notably through helicopter Search and Rescue (SAR), MEDEVAC, and Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape (SERE) missions. While the addition of hoisting systems on-board rotary-wing aircraft 74 years ago has offered rescue capability, one mission critical attribute of the capability has been fatally flawed all this time: the stabilization of the suspended hoist cable and load. Vita Inclinata Technologies (Vita) has developed a platform agnostic, autonomous hoist cable control platform: The Load Stability System (LSS), capable of controlling complete oscillatory and rotational motion of a suspended load.
