INTRODUCING

CorroVision

CorroVision allows for the transfer of scientific research into real-world maintenance environments, reducing costs and improving response times. CorroVision allows for optimization of manpower by enabling users to implement scientific knowledge whilst re-skilling and up-skilling workers in the process. CorroVision is helping the defense industry by redeploying specialists to other areas and allowing for better planning and decision making at higher levels.

Retention of Knowledge

Significantly reduce training time frames and optimize the utilization of expert specialist knowledge and skill sets.

Informed Decision Making

Optimize holistic weapon system readiness via informed data-driven decisions prioritizing deployment, maintenance, and resource allocation.

Optimize Ownership Spend

Eliminate additional time and monetary costs incurred by unscheduled arisings, increasing the mission success rate.

Eliminate NADs

Accurately schedule corrosion maintenance to maximize platform availability and reduce non available days.

Increase Readiness

Effective corrosion management increases readiness whilst simultaneously extending the life and reducing the cost of military assets.

Stay Mission Capable

CorroVision ensures mission capability by managing the multifaceted challenge of maintaining structural integrity, system functionality, and overall readiness.

The Story behind CorroVision

CorroVision is a software-based tool that uses artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to utilize and implement more than 35 years of pooled knowledge from Ascent’s corrosion subject matter experts. That’s 35+ years of learning about corrosion, the impacts of corrosion, how to find corrosion, what influences corrosion, and how to optimize maintenance and external influences to reduce the effects of corrosion on weapon systems, allowing that knowledge to be retained, refined, and utilized by your staff.

CorroVision bottles up this expertise and applies it to the many factors influencing corrosion-related impacts on fleet readiness.

As a platform-agnostic software tool using AI and ML to optimize corrosion management, CorroVision automates the analysis process instantaneously. It allows optimization of maintenance schedules, ensuring that aircraft are not over (or under) maintained via optimal maintenance schedules for each aircraft. This reduces unnecessary maintenance and generates manpower efficiencies. CorroVision even predicts how much corrosion each aircraft will experience, and provides component, aircraft, and ‘whole of fleet’ data.

INTRODUCING

AeroATLAS

A first-of-it’s kind, a platform-agnostic weight and balance calculation tool targeted specifically at airborne military application.

AeroATLAS alleviates pilot workload and reduces in-flight risks by ensuring mission readiness of any airborne weapon system through simple interface tools & rapid data delivery.

Alleviate Pilot Workload

Minimize pre-flight workload and ensure mission readiness via a time-efficient solution that eliminates data translation and duplication in a singular automated package.

Reduce In-Flight Risks

Ensure accurate and reliable calculations via an intuitive, pilot-focused Human Machine Interface (HMI) design that facilitates accurate and fault redundant inputs to empower dynamic and timely decision making during hazardous weight changing exercises and operations.

Made For Military Applications

A single “plug and play” military specific solution that is readily configurable for the varying functionality necessitated by any aviation weapon system, in any environment, under any regulatory body. In today’s fast-paced and dynamic military aviation environment, the reliability and accuracy of Weight & Balance calculations are paramount to ensuring our front-line operators can go where & when they need to go.

Why AeroATLAS?

We have been the end user.

Ascent draws from the experience of their team members – veterans, operators, and subject matter experts who have experienced various platform limitations. From the adaption of commercial tools (often failing to account for military time pressures and varying functionality) through to cumbersome spreadsheets and time-consuming paper-based forms – we’ve been there.

These antiquated methods often fail to facilitate accurate data inputs, coupled with the high-pressure setting of the military context leaving operators with nil capacity to perform gross error checking – affecting mission readiness and safety of operations. Adoption of civilian solutions may alleviate some concerns, but they are largely intended for the civilian context; without significant tailoring do not account for the vast array of unique and hazardous weight-changing scenarios encountered within the military setting.

Enter AeroATLAS, an innovative platform purpose-built to explicitly address these challenges.

AeroATLAS is not repackaging existing tools; it alternatively acts as a strategic enabler, offering an operator-focused Human Machine Interface (HMI) for pre-flight planning, in-flight weight management, and real-time decision-making. Beyond routine calculations, AeroATLAS handles complex mission-critical factors like stores or ordnance expenditure, crew movements, lateral imbalance checks, Air-to-Air Refueling, fuel pump failure analysis, and cargo/paratrooper drop considerations. AeroATLAS exemplifies commitment to safety, compliance, and best practices, adhering to a “universal design basis” that encapsulates regulatory requirements and best practices from multiple National and Military Airworthiness Authorities, including the likes of EASA, EMAR, FAA, NAVAIR, CAA, and DASA.

Coupled with a modular, configuration-driven software architecture, AeroATLAS is readily adaptable for any aviation weapon system, making it a versatile “plug and play” solution irrespective of an aircraft’s operational complexity or regulatory landscape.

Say goodbye to

Inefficiency

No more inefficient, time-consuming paper-based solutions that increase the risk of human errors in high-pressure environments.

Spreadsheets

Say goodbye to complex spreadsheets that are difficult to navigate, leading to inaccurate inputs while failing to comply with basic safety, software reliability and cyber security protocols.

Rigidity

Commercial W&B tools adapted for use on a single military platform fail to account for variables involved in the military environment, offering a rigid and unfriendly makeshift solution.

Paperwork

Inefficient dispatch processes which necessitate extensive data translation and duplication to complete “the paperwork”.

Say hello to
