Sarsen Technology is Going on Tour!

We are taking part in the 2013 Dream Marketing Defence and Aerospace Roadshow this September, taking our unique blend of embedded COTS technology to the masses.

The travelling exhibition begins on 16th September and lasts for 3 weeks, visiting some of the biggest names in the Defence and Aerospace marketplace including Rolls Royce, BAE Systems, GE Aviation and Thales.

Travelling Exhibitions have changed a bit over the years....

The vehicle itself is quite special. It expands to accommodate around 20 individual exhibition stands, which all have their own power supply, cupboard storage and lighting. Plenty of room for us to show you the good stuff.

We’ve been involved with the Roadshow in the past, and have found it a brilliant way of being able to get our technology in front of engineers and developers who unfortunately don't always get to visit more traditional trade shows.

The proposed schedule is as follows:

Date	Venue	Location
Mon 16th Sep	BAE Systems	Barrow
Tues 17th Sep	Rolls-Royce	Derby
Wed 18th Sep	Selex	Luton
Thurs 19th Sep	Selex	Basildon
Fri 20th Sep	Goodrich	Pitstone
Mon 23th Sep	Messier Dowty	Gloucester
Tues 24th Sep	Cobham Mission Systems	Wimborne
Wed 25th Sep	Thales	Templecombe
Thurs 26th Sep	GE Aviation	Cheltenham
Fri 27th Sep	General Dynamics	Newport
Mon 30th Sep	BAE/MBDA	Filton
Tues 1st Oct	Rolls Royce	Bristol
Wed 2nd Oct	L-3 Comms	Tewkesbury
Thur 3rd Oct	Agusta Westland	Yeovil
Fri 4th Oct	Thales	Basingstoke

BAE Systems Rugged Processor Unit Demo at DSEi 2011

Sarsen Technology will be exhibiting again at Defence & Security Equipment International (DSEi) in 2011. DSEi will be held from 13th - 16th September, 2011 in London at ExCeL. DSEi provides a unique platform to view the latest equipment and systems from the world’s defence and security industry. DSEi provides an opportunity for companies of all sizes to develop international relationships and generate new business opportunities.

We will have two working demos on our stand this year. A BittWare VPX Rapid Development Platform which is a development environment for 3U VPX Systems and a BAE Systems Rugged Processor Unit. The BAE Systems Rugged Processor Unit uses two VersaLogic Leopard PC/104-Plus Intel Core 2 Duo processor Single Board Computers. The Rugged Processor Unit operates in extreme temperatures, arid, humid, and wet climates and where shock/vibrations are commonplace. Certified to Mil Std 810F, you can be confident that the RPU will deliver the Size Weight and Performance (SWaP) you need.

You will find Sarsen Technology on stand S4-102 and details can be found on the www.dsei.co.uk web site. We look forward to seeing you there.

Roadshow Update - Friday 2 October

The European Defence & Aerospace Manufacturing Technology Roadshow visited BAE Systems Aerosystems International in Yeovil on Friday 2nd October. There was a good turn out from a number of the departments at the site. The Trenton Systems 19" Rackmount embedded computing systems and the VersaLogic EBX format single board computers were the solutions of most interest. The Sarsen Technology sarsen stone/rock giveaways are still proving popular. Yeovil is a town dominated by helicopter technology and businesses focussed on that market. The Friday afternoon drive home was made more enjoyable by listening to the new CD compilation provided by Darren Taylor at BittWare. Thanks again Darren!

European Defence & Aerospace Manufacturing Technology Roadshow 2009 - Week 2

The roadshow has visited Roke Manor Research in Romsey, BAE Systems in Farnborough and Lockheed-Martin in Havant this week. Tomorrow it is Thursday so it must be GE Aviation in Cheltenham and on Friday it is BAE Systems Aerosystems International in Yeovil. This week the locations are very convenient for Sarsen as they are all about an hours drive north, south, east and west from Marlborough. Nigel's car sustained some damage returning from Goodrich last Friday. A tyre was punctured and then a truck ran over the jack whilst the wheel was being changed which resulted in the nearside wing mirror being ripped off. It could have been a lot worse but not the best way to end a long working week!

European Defence & Aerospace Manufacturing Technology Roadshow 2009 - First Week

An enjoyable and productive week meeting new and old customers at Selex S&AS in Luton, Goodrich Automation Systems in Wolverhampton, Rolls-Royce in Derby, Lockheed Martin (INSYS) in Ampthill and Goodrich Power Systems in Pitstone. The key product areas that generated the most interest were the EVOC rugged laptops, BittWare's Altera Stratix IV FPGA solutions, Trenton Technology's 19" Rackmount server solutions and VersaLogic's PC/104-Plus Single Board Computers.

The sites to be visited next week are closer to home for the Sarsen team so no more nights away! Monday is Siemens Roke Manor Research in Romsey, then BAE Systems in Farnborough, followed by Lockheed-Martin in Havant on Wednesday, GE Aviation in Cheltenham on Thursday and BAE Systems Aerosystems International in Yeovil on Friday.
