Curtiss-Wright Controls Defense Solutions Introduces Industry's First Complete HD Video Switching, Recording and Network Distribution System
New VRD1-CC Routes Up to 18 video Inputs (HD-SDI, RGB, DVI, etc.) to 12 Video Outputs for Viewing, Compression, Recording or Distribution Over a Standard Ethernet Network
(firmenpresse) - WASHINGTON, DC -- (Marketwire) -- 02/22/12 -- - , a business unit of Curtiss-Wright Controls, has introduced a breakthrough new approach for deployed platform video management. The new integrates switching, recording and network distribution of High Definition (HD) video for aerospace and defense platforms in a single compact rugged unit. The VRD1-CC is the industry's first video management system (VMS) to deliver comprehensive functionality, that previously required multiple or expensive customized systems, in a single unit optimized for SWaP-C constrained platforms. The VRD1-CC speeds and simplifies the integration of HD VMS for military applications deployed in harsh environments, such as vetronics and avionics.
"Our new VRD1-CC is a game changing approach to HD video management on deployed defense and aerospace platforms," said Lynn Bamford, senior vice president and general manager of Curtiss-Wright Controls Defense Solutions. "As demand for real-time access to HD video for situational awareness grows, so too do the number of video input sensors and the challenge of compressing, archiving and networking actionable imagery. The VRD1-CC lets system designers integrate no compromise, state-of-the art video management onto their platforms in a single, rugged SWaP-C optimized box."
The conduction-cooled VRD1-CC (an air-cooled variant is also planned) is a lightweight, compact subsystem. A single VRD1-CC unit combines six (6) channels of full resolution HD 30fps MPEG4 H.264 compression, video and audio recording with metadata/event markers, and Ethernet video distribution or storage to disk. A simple, intuitive man-machine interface provides an on-board or remote operator with complete access to the VRD1-CC's wide range of VMS options and functionality. This powerful VMS supports up to 18 video inputs in a mix of different standards, including HD-SDI, RGB and DVI. These video inputs can then be easily routed to any of the VRD1-CC's 12 video outputs for real-time viewing or routed to the system's real-time HD video compression subsystem for recording or distribution over a standard Ethernet network.
For applications that require multiple video streams to be viewed simultaneously, the VRD1-CC has a real-time scaling engine that scales and positions any four inputs into a single video stream for viewing, recording or distribution.
Eighteen (18) video inputs with switching, scaling and windowing:
Six (6) RGB analog/DVI digital, up to 1920x1200 pixels at 60fps (RGB input includes support for STANAG 3350)
Six (6) 3G-SDI digital, up to 1080p60
Six (6) composite analog, CVBS/PAL/NTSC
Twelve (12) video outputs
Six (6) RGB analog/DVI digital, up to 1920x1200 pixels at 60fps
