Data That Drives Precision

Data That Drives Precision

At Sydor Technologies, we understand that accurate velocity data is imperative for effective ballistic testing and defense research. Our flexible and scalable Velocity Measurement solutions are engineered for precision, reliability, and integration into high-demand testing environments – delivering the insights needed to validate performance, enhance safety, and meet mission-critical standards.

Measuring What Matters Most

Whether you’re characterizing projectile behavior, analyzing impact forces, or qualifying ammunition performance, velocity is the critical variable. Our products provide high-resolution, real-time data across a wide range of velocities. From subsonic rounds to hypersonic projectiles, we aim to enable deeper analysis and confident decision-making.

Standards We Support

  • NIJ and MIL-STD testing requirements
  • NATO STANAG protocols
  • SAAMI and CIP ammunition standards
  • Custom research and defense specifications
