Industry Partnerships
The data your R&D team can't get anywhere else.
ParaBaro captures internal wing pressure dynamics during real flight — data no certification test house provides. We are inviting a small number of leading manufacturers to access this data, shape the technology, and lead the next chapter in paraglider safety.

The Problem We Solve
EN certification has a structural blind spot.
EN 926-2 testing measures how a wing recovers after a collapse is provoked. It does not measure the internal pressure dynamics that cause a wing to collapse in the first place. That gap is where pilots get hurt — and where ParaBaro operates.
What certification measures
Collapse recovery behaviour under controlled, provoked conditions on a test day with a single test pilot.
- Time to recover from asymmetric collapse
- Rotation angle and altitude loss
- Pilot input required for recovery
- Static load and shock tests on the ground
What we add
Continuous internal pressure recording during real flight — thousands of hours across varied conditions, wings, and pilots.
- Cell pressure asymmetry preceding collapse onset
- Leading edge pressure behaviour under turbulence
- Span-wise load distribution on speed bar
- Wing-specific pressure profiles across EN classes A–D
How to Partner
Three levels of collaboration.
We structure partnerships to match your level of interest and R&D appetite. All begin with a mutual NDA. All protect your IP and ours.
Data Partner
The lowest-friction way to access structural flight data specific to your wing models. No cost, no engineering resource required.
- ParaBaro fitted on 2–3 of your wings (non-invasive)
- Your test pilots fly their normal programme
- Full pressure dataset delivered under mutual NDA
- EN certification entirely unaffected
- No financial commitment from your side
Available now · Limited to 4 manufacturers
R&D Partner
ParaBaro becomes part of your design validation workflow. Gain objective structural data at each prototype stage, not just after certification.
- All Tier 1 benefits
- Integration into prototype and pre-production testing
- ML-derived collapse pressure signatures for your models
- Input into ParaBaro product roadmap
- Joint publication and research credit options
From Q3 2026 · Subject to NDA and scope agreement
OEM / Licensing Partner
Integrate ParaBaro or license the predictive ML model into your wing range. Be the first manufacturer to offer active structural safety monitoring.
- All Tier 1 & 2 benefits
- Licensing of ParaBaro ML prediction model
- Co-branded safety integration in new wing models
- White-label or OEM sensor hardware options
- Revenue share on co-developed products

Intellectual Property
Clear IP boundaries protect both sides.
Partnerships are built on trust and legal clarity. Here is how IP is structured across all collaboration levels.
Aviometrics IP — exclusively ours
The ParaBaro differential pressure sensing methodology is protected by a UK patent application (filed 2025, full application in preparation). This covers the sensor network architecture, data synchronisation approach, and the machine learning methodology for canopy structural anomaly detection.
The aggregate ML model trained on our beta fleet dataset, and all algorithmic IP derived from it, remain the exclusive property of Aviometrics Ltd in all partnership tiers.
In plain terms: No partnership gives a manufacturer access to the core technology or the predictive model. Tier 3 licensing provides a defined right to use the output of the model — not the model itself.
Shared data — jointly owned under NDA
Pressure data collected on a specific manufacturer's wing models is treated as jointly owned information under the mutual NDA. Neither party may publish or share this data without the other's written consent.
Wing-specific pressure profiles derived from your models will never be disclosed to competitors or used in any public dataset without your explicit agreement.
What you keep: Full ownership of your wing designs, construction data, and all proprietary manufacturing IP. Participating in a data partnership creates no claim on your products or processes.
EN certification — unaffected
ParaBaro sensors attach non-invasively using existing internal cell attachment points. There is no structural modification to the wing. The certified wing configuration is unchanged. EN 926-2 and LTF certification status is not affected in any way.
Ideal Partners
Who this is designed for.
We are selective about who we work with. The initial phase is limited to four manufacturers. We are looking for partners who share a genuine commitment to advancing pilot safety.
Wing Manufacturers
EN-A through EN-D wing brands who invest in R&D and want structural flight data beyond what certification testing provides. Particularly relevant for brands with active SIV and test pilot programmes.
Flight Instrument Makers
Variometer and flight computer manufacturers interested in integrating real-time canopy structural monitoring into existing products. Licensing the ParaBaro ML model as an embedded safety feature.
Flight Schools & Training Centres
Schools seeking objective data for student training, SIV course instrumentation, or insurance differentiation. We offer a separate school partnership track alongside the manufacturer programme.
How It Works
From first contact to live data.
A straightforward four-step process. First data delivery typically within one flying season of the NDA being signed.
Initial call
30-minute video call to understand your R&D priorities and confirm partnership fit. No commitment required.
Mutual NDA
Standard mutual NDA executed. IP boundaries agreed in writing before any data or technical detail is shared.
Sensor fitting
ParaBaro sensors fitted on your designated wings by our team. Non-invasive. One day. Your pilots fly as normal.
Data delivery
Full pressure dataset delivered in agreed format at end of season. Analysis report included for Tier 2 partners.
Ready to discuss a partnership?
We respond to all partnership enquiries within two business days. Please include the nature of your organisation and your area of interest in your message.
Initial phase limited to four manufacturers. Enquire early to secure a place in the 2026 data collection season.
