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

Bringing the benefits of multicore processors to safety-critical systems is challenging. Read how Curtiss-Wright and Green Hills Software are up to the challenge.

Curtiss-Wright is working with NASA and aerospace leaders to return Americans to the Moon and send astronauts to Mars in the early 2030s

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.

Curtiss-Wright’s Defense Solutions division enhanced the Parvus DuraCOR 312, the industry’s most powerful and flexible ultra-small form factor (USFF) mission computer, with the NVIDIA Jetson TX2i module.
