3U VPX High Performance Display Processing Platform

Capturing video feeds from several sensors and making that data available to the user is required for many applications: surveillance, tracking, collision avoidance, diminished vision environment situations, targeting, etc. In all of these applications, whether the data is being fed to a pilot during flight or to an operator on the ground - the data is critical for mission completion, post-mission analysis, and personal safety. 

While providing this graphical data output is of great importance, with the ongoing additions of new requirements and new functions, a shrinking amount of volume and power is available for the computers that provide this information. This is to allow more sensors, which add weight and power or increase the platform's availability. A size, weight, and power (SWaP) optimized solution is critical to the continuing growth of the platform. 

The MPMC-9351 based system provides a configurable, high bandwidth, low latency display processor in a compact low-power form factor. It satisfies the video capture, processing and compress needs for unmanned aerial vehicle or video capture, processing and display needs for a manned aircraft in a fully qualified and packaged system solution. Overall, Curtiss-Wright develops systems that can be quickly configured to meet the needs of any military or aerospace requirements, including harsh avionics and vehicular environments.
