Testing for unique customer requirements


Hi! My name is Alex. I am a member of Tripod Data Systems’ engineering team. I am responsible for successful execution of customer-focused projects, also known as tactical projects. Our customers call us for unique configurations, and I get to test the limits of our products to see if they can handle the conditions stated in the customer request.

I created this video of me testing the buoyancy of a Recon mated with an Extended Cap off the jetty on the Oregon Coast near Yaquina Bay. The Recon is thrown out into the water several times, and it survives the ordeal of hitting the water and banging against the rocks when I haul it to shore!
