Sound Velocity, Temperature and Pressure for Underwater Vehicles.
UV-SVP
Designed for Underwater Vehicles where space is at a premium, the UV-SVP is based on the Valeport miniSVS. Incorporating Valeport’s class-leading time of flight sound speed sensor, a PRT temperature sensor and a 0.01% pressure sensor in a compact package weighing just 750 grams (in air), the lightweight titanium housing gives a depth rating of 3000m. A wide range (9-30V DC) isolated power supply and RS232 communications complete the package.

SparkFun ToF Range Finder Breakout for VL6180
12784
This is the SparkFun "Time-of-Flight" Range Finder, a breakout for the VL6180 distance sensor. Unlike most distance sensors that rely reflected light intensity or reflected angles to determine range, the VL6180 uses a precise clock to measure the time it takes light to bounce back from a surface. This affords the ToF Range Finder and VL6180 a great benefit over other methods because it can be much more accurate and more immune to noise. Does this technology sound familiar? Well it should, it's the same means cellphones use to detect when the caller is holding their phone to their ear.

IEEE 1394b/AS5643 Mil1394 (FireWire), Triple-Node Multi-Port, Communications
FW3
The FW3 function module provides IEEE 1394b/AS5643 (Mil1394) support on each of its three nodes, which are configured as 2 nodes with 3-ports and 1 node with 2-ports. AS5643 defined flight ready robustness and active transformer isolation to enable longer cable lengths (20 meter) between nodes. Together these standards provide the deterministic and redundant communications protocol required for Vehicle System (Flight Control) Networks. The FW3 multiple ports per node configuration allows the user to create tree, daisy-chain and looped topologies needed to optimize cable length and weight while creating redundancy.

Deep Ultraviolet Spectrophotometer System
VUVAS-10X
A new ultraviolet spectrophotometer system for optical metrology just arrived at NASA Goddard! The VUVAS-10X spectrophotometer works best in the 90 to 160 nanometer wavelength range, also known as deep or vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) region. It uses a windowless hydrogen plasma light source and differential pump section to reach many wavelengths beyond those of conventional deuterium lamps. The source also works with other gases, or gas mixtures, for atomic spectral line emission from about 30 nanometers (double ionized Helium gas) up to the Visible light range. The new spectrophotometer system, McPherson VUVAS-10X, uses a one-meter focal length high-resolution monochromator with the special light source, scintillated detector and Model 121 goniometric sample chamber. The system is ideal for optical transmission, absorbance and specular reflectance at incident angles up to 60 degrees. This McPherson spectrophotometer system will help develop, inspect and qualify optical materials and coatings used for very high altitude and extraterrestrial space flight missions.

Cageable Attitude Gyroscopes
5000M-series
The 5000M is an air-driven gyro that has a pictorial horizon mask and fixed airplane. The mask moves to indicate climb, dive, and bank. Bank and pitch attitudes are displayed so that the pilot’s sensing of the gyro indication is the same as the interpretation of the relation between the wings of the aircraft and the natural horizon during visual flight.
