Continuous Surface Monitoring for Vehicle Aerodynamics & Performance Development
Hyve provides dense, real-time pressure, temperature, and strain data across vehicle surfaces — enabling faster aerodynamic development, improved wind tunnel correlation, and real-world performance validation.
Key Features & Benefits
Real-Time Surface Data
High-frequency measurement of aerodynamic pressure, thermal behaviour, and structural loads during wind tunnel or track testing.
Ultra-Thin & Non-Intrusive
Conformable flexible sensor arrays adapt to vehicle surfaces without affecting airflow or structural integrity.
High-Density Measurement
Dense multi-point sensing across the surface captures continuous pressure distribution rather than discrete measurement points.
Accelerated Development Cycles
Reduce iteration time between CFD, wind tunnel testing, and track validation.
EV Efficiency Insights
Identify aerodynamic drag sources and thermal inefficiencies affecting vehicle range and cooling performance.
Hyve enables high-resolution surface instrumentation for automotive aerodynamics, motorsport development, and EV efficiency optimisation. Non-invasive sensor arrays deploy rapidly in testing environments, delivering real-time pressure, thermal, and structural data across complex vehicle geometries.
Hyve enables faster aerodynamic development across motorsport, EV platforms, and next-generation high-performance vehicles.
Motorsport Aerodynamic Development
Real-Time Downforce Mapping
Measure pressure distribution across wings, floor, and bodywork during track testing.
Brake Duct Optimisation
Simultaneous temperature and pressure measurement to validate cooling airflow.
Active Aero Validation
Quantify pressure changes during aerodynamic state transitions.
Tunnel-to-Track Correlation
Use identical instrumentation across wind tunnel and on-track testing.
Regulation Cycle Development Advantage
Major regulation changes across motorsport categories trigger rapid aerodynamic development cycles. Faster iteration between CFD, wind tunnel testing, and track validation creates measurable performance advantage.
Automotive (EV & ICE)
EV Range Optimisation
Aerodynamic drag directly affects vehicle range. Continuous pressure mapping identifies drag sources across mirrors, pillars, underbody, and cooling systems.
Thermal Management
Battery cooling, motor thermal limits, and cabin HVAC efficiency require detailed airflow understanding. Hyve enables simultaneous pressure and temperature mapping across thermal systems.
High-Speed Stability
Quantified lift and downforce distribution at speed. Identify flow separation zones and instability across bodywork and aerodynamic devices.
