Backed by broad support from government and industry, the release of SOSA Technical Standard 1.0 promises a new era of open standards-based system integration with flexibility and interoperability as its hallmarks.

In order to keep up with the continued acceleration of new technology and to be able to protect the warfighter from the latest threats, it is essential that we can turn our deployed platforms into adaptable entities that can evolve over time and are not static. The SOSA [Sensor Open Systems Architecture] Technical Standard is the next major step in realizing this goal.

Designing a flight recorder (FR) that complies to international standards and crash survivability is very challenging and more expensive than buying one.

To exploit the potential benefits of new technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, video analysis, Internet of Things (IoT), augmented reality and virtual reality, and other innovative technologies on mobile platforms at the tactical edge, Department of Defense (DoD) communications programs must effectively deploy advanced IT infrastructure, connectivity, and compute resources.

The suite of open architecture industry and U.S. Army standards included in CMOSS enables the reduction of C4ISR system SWaP.

New flight recorder system from Honeywell and Curtiss-Wright enhances safety and eases access to onboard data for operators.

We look at how to strengthen redundancy with dissimilarity and complex voting in order to meet DO 254 DAL A requirements.

We look at the range of aircraft monitoring programs which can detect structural failures, reducing unscheduled maintenance and costs.
