As unmanned vehicles become more powerful and complex, their electronics payloads must adapt to match new mission objectives. This often forces aerospace and defense system integrators to push for reductions in size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C).

In the third paper in our series, we cover additional features of the Dolphin PCIe Fabric Communications Library that help minimizes latency, maximize system bandwidth, and optimize configuration flexibility.

In this second white paper in our two-part series, we present several different software interfaces provided for applications development, comparing their advantages and tradeoffs. Finally, we present performance benchmarks using a variety of Curtiss-Wright.

We introduce the use of fabrics for high-performance embedded systems and focus on the hardware and architectural options available to the systems designer.

TCG HUNTR software installed on a Parvus DuraCOR 8043 mission computer, displayed on a GVDU mission display, provides operators with a rugged, small form factor solution that can be used on the battlefield with minimal training and almost no expertise.

When a large system integrator needed a SWaP optimized, rugged, network-attached storage system with NSA-approved encryption, a UAV contacted Curtiss-Wright for a trusted, proven solution.

A customer wished to move to the latest and greatest technology without having to change pinouts or cables on the aircraft.

Tactical Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UASs) used for reconnaissance, surveillance, targeting, and assessment required an upgrade for Ethernet switching capabilities for onboard communications and sensor payload equipment. Learn more!
