Customer Engagements

TASCK provides the framework needed to create on-demand robotics tailored to a particular task in real-time.

We’re supporting Airbus’s efforts to transform the aerospace industries via software development, systems-level design, and technical project management.

Gazebo Simulations of Experimental Legged Vehicle generated from parametric models using OpenMETA

The spacecraft architecture includes several options for panel size, gyroscope, and battery. A trade study can be performed to compare the performance of each permutation, with measures of effectiveness derived from the combined CAD and Modelica analysis workflow.

Inspired by Project Vahana from A³ by Airbus, engineers at MetaMorph built OpenMETA models of the Vahana Tilt-Wing Multirotor aircraft and a generic electric helicopter, using A³’s publicly released source code as a template.

Using the OpenMETA toolset, we performed a multidisciplinary optimization and analysis of the two models across a range of operating distances.

Our results replicates A³’s results and suggest that an electric tilt-wing multirotor aircraft offers a significantly lower direct operating cost (DOC) over a more traditional electric helicopter design around a target operational range of 100 km.
