SI makes it possible to obtain samples of undisturbed air at any designated level.
Because it combines the dead calm lift of a balloon with the aerodynamic lift of a kite, the KYTOON is able to elevate measuring instruments as high as 3200 feet... to maintain its maximum altitude and vertical flight angle regardless of wind conditions.
Inflated with helium or hydrogen, the 10 ft. KYTOON will rise, head into the wind, and fly almost directly over its anchor point. Two, three or more KYTOONS can be flown from one rig to provide the additional lift necessary to elevate apparatus for measuring temperature, humidity, wind velocity and direction.
The KYTOON is currently being used by meteorologists to lift wiresonde or radiosonde instruments, as a target for surveyors, to raise radio or television antennae, in air-sea rescue work, and in many other applications that require a practical, precise "sky hook" for captive flight under all weather conditions.
