Streamlining Hardware-in-the-Loop Test Systems for Aerospace Engineering

The aerospace sector relies on rigorous testing to ensure safety and performance, with hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing playing a crucial role by integrating real hardware with simulated environments. This method allows engineers to evaluate and refine aerospace systems, such as avionics and propulsion, in a controlled and repeatable setting, reducing risks and speeding up development. This application overview paper discusses key components for building effective HIL test systems and highlights how United Electronic Industries (UEI) products offer optimal solutions.
