Maywood's history in the design of bespoke measurement solutions is illustrated case by case. The world record holding Thrust SSC supersonic car and Richard Branson's Trans-Pacific hot air balloon are two detailed examples that have relied on Maywood expertise. The literature explores measurement applications with sub gram resolutions and those with loads of several thousand tonnes.
