Two embedded trends—nanocomputing and high-density computing—are shaping up as heavyweight champs in terms of their importance to advanced military applications.
Small, lightweight, integrated visual computing systems are enabling military solutions that convert raw data and process sensor input to create true information fusion.
Offering advantages over technologies like battery-backed SRAM, parallel FRAM, MRAM and EEPROM, a new generation of nvSRAM devices has emerged suited for a variety of military applications.
Tech Recon Graphics & Imaging in Situational Awareness
Military situational awareness systems are pushing the limits of complex processing combined with sophisticated graphics output. VPX is emerging as the winning architecture to support that seamless integration of state-of-the-art graphics hardware.
The high-end graphics/image processing needed in situational awareness applications depends on multicore processing and high-performance, low-power, small form-factor boards with a wide range of I/O.
System Development The PC as a Military Test Platform
Blending proven longevity and a wide infrastructure of products, conduction-cooled CompactPCI has become entrenched as a popular military embedded computing technology.
