Airbus aircraft links integration management system used in the demonstration is based on a safety certifiable rugged COTS processor system supplied by Curtiss-Wright.

Thanks to parallel advancements in battery technology and autonomous vehicles resulting from Tesla and other pioneering electric automobile manufacturers, we are rapidly approaching the era of the unmanned flying taxi.

Demo highlights DO-178 safety-certifiable VxWorks® 653 3.0.1.1 RTOS on Curtiss-Wright VPX3-152 SBC and graphics modules and cost-effective development path

DDC-I’s Deos DO-178 DAL Level A safety-critical multi-core real-time operating system (RTOS) will be demonstrated for the first time on Curtiss-Wright’s NXP Power Architecture QorIQ Quad-core AltiVec-enabled T2080 processor-based VPX3-152.

Green Hills Software’s field-proven INTEGRITY-178 tuMP safety- and security-critical multi-core real-time operating system (RTOS) will be demonstrated for the first time running on the Curtiss-Wright VPX3-1703.

Rick Hearn explains how the key computing elements of an avionics system must all be designed with safety in mind and endure stringent testing to prove they can meet the required Design Assurance Level (DAL).

Support for Green Hills Software’s INTEGRITY-178 tuMP RTOS and CoreAVI’s graphics drivers on Curtiss-Wright rugged modules speeds the integration of high-performance avionics systems

Given its complexity and the critical applications for which it is designed, embedded avionics software must undergo a rigorous approval and testing process before it can be approved as airworthy.

With the wide adoption of FACE, system integrators can reap tremendous benefits in interoperability and cost.

Low-power Arm-based VPX3-1703 joins Curtiss-Wright’s family of Intel® and Power Architecture® SBCs and expands support for Green Hills Software® INTEGRITY®-178 tuMP Safety-Certifiable RTOS.

Demo features Harris' FACE-conformant FliteScene® Digital Moving Map software and Curtiss-Wright 3U OpenVPX single board computers and graphics modules
