Data Acquisition Systems

Data acquisition (DAQ) is the process of measuring an electrical or physical phenomenon such as voltage, current or sound with a computer.

A DAQ system consists of sensors/transducers, measurement hardware and then some kind of computer. The piece of hardware that takes the data in from the transducers in called the front-end.

DAQs and front ends come in many different guises. We can supply fully installed, bespoke data acquisition systems, handheld devices that give you full mobility and simple front end that enables you to plug your microphone or accelerometer straight into a computer.

  • Capture precise data from microphones, accelerometers and other transducers using reliable front-end hardware
  • Choose from handheld, plug-and-play, or fully installed DAQ systems tailored to your application
  • Ideal for lab, field or mobile use with flexible options for noise, vibration and environmental monitoring

Aerospace & Defence

All industry applications bring their own challenges, but aerospace and defence testing can be one of the harshest, pushing transducers and measurement systems to their limits.

Electroacoustics

We have many options to help ensure that we can work with you to put together a system to test your product in real world conditions.

Automotive

Whether you work in NVH or are part of the drivetrain testing, chassis testing or transmission teams, AcSoft have ultimate solutions for noise, vibration, harshness and sound quality measurement.

R&D and Production

Centralising data collation and analysis across multiple production sites is also possible as expectation of remote access to acquisition systems becomes the norm

Applications of the CRY8025 Acoustic Camera

September 9, 2026

Acoustic imaging is changing the way engineers and maintenance teams find and investigate problems. By turning sound into a visual image, an acoustic camera can quickly pinpoint where a sound is coming from – even when the source is difficult to locate by ear alone.  The CRY8025 SonoCam Pocket Pro…
