ISIS On Board Computer

Flight Heritage since 2014

€4,400 – €9,850

The ISIS on board computer (IOBC) is a flight qualified, high-performance processing unit based around an ARM9 processor with a speed of 400 MHz, making it one of the most capable on-board computers currently available on the market within the same price range. Its pluggable daughter board offers additional flexibility and customizability by providing a wide range of extra interfaces for payloads, sensors or actuators in a compact form factor.
