SAIT CIRUS has been fortunate to receive generous funding from the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI), Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), and Prairies Canada to support the development of our research centre and supporting applied research projects. Our research centre features a diverse and advanced fleet of remotely piloted aircraft, sensors, survey equipment, data processing and modeling software, and hardware. Some of our remotely piloted systems are the only ones in North America, making CIRUS a leading research centre on the continent.

This miniature fin actuator manufactured by MPS Microsystems was designed based on customer specifications. Designed to guide a very small object and disposing of an extremely limited space, it meets strict requirements in terms of performance, weight - less than 100 g - and dimensions. To reduce the length of this actuator, MPS Microsystems used part of the screw length as the motor axis. This screw is equipped with a very compact 4-point contact bearing that simultaneously absorbs axial and radial loads. The angular play on the aileron axis is less than 0.1° rms. This actuator meets the storage and vibration requirements of military equipment.

DS AETHER CT provides various industrial Gas Tube Skids such as Hydrogen (H2), Helium (He), Neon (Ne), Nitrogen (N2) and Argon (Ar) as well as CNG. The working pressure is set to national requirements or customer's demands. The color of the jumbo tubes and skid frames follows ISO color codes or the designations of customers.

The ACTUS® IR Flashlight emits a low output of less than 100mW with a wavelength range of 830 to 875 nm, classified as a Class 3B laser. Designed for reliable performance in extreme environments, it can withstand specific storage and operating temperature ranges. Powered by a single CR123A lithium battery, it offers extended operational time, while its robust 6061-T6 aluminum construction ensures durability. The lightweight, compact design makes it easy to carry and use in the field.

Spring probes are designed to optimize performance in high reliability, multicycle applications. Smiths Interconnect’s spring probes are compliant which makes them ideal for blind mate applications as they self correct for x, y, z, rotational and angular misalignment of the target. Offered in compressed heights less than 2 mm and utilized on pitches as tight as 0.4 mm, they are well suited for high density, board-to-board, battery contact and high frequency applications. Mixed signals and functionality can be designed into a single connector.
