Sensor Networking for Flat Panel Detectors
Pleora’s sensor interfaces help manufacturers reduce development costs, complexity, and time by providing a highly reliable, high-bandwidth end-to-end network link between static and dynamic flat panel detectors (FPDs) and receiving devices.
- Transmit real-time, low latency sensor data over a secure 1-10 Gbps link to receiving software or hardware
- Easily integrate small footprint hardware and “zero footprint” FPGA IP Core or software solutions into existing and new FPDs
- Image management tags an image or group of images with metadata — provides context necessary to retrieve and protect patient X-ray data in event of power or network failure
- IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol — synchronize multiple FPDs to a network master clock with up to 1 μs (microsecond) precision
- Networking, cabling, and computing advantage
Pleora’s real-time sensor networking expertise solves complex connectivity challenges for X-ray systems that process, analyze, and display high-bandwidth video and data with extremely low latency. The company’s market-proven sensor interfaces have been designed into medical radiography, panoramic dental, security, and industrial inspection applications.
Pleora’s RuggedCONNECT Smart Video Switcher with plug-in AI for vehicle identification and driver awareness is a scalable sensor networking and battlefield awareness solution that reduces cognitive burden, increases mission effectiveness, and meets SWaP-C demands.
- Transmit real-time, low latency sensor data across secure networks to processors and displays for advanced warning and effective mission planning
- Crew-centered product design ensures intuitive systems that reduce cognitive burden
- Highly configurable architecture enables NGVA, GVA, and VICTORY compliant vehicle platforms that are rapidly deployable, mission configurable, cost-effective
- Full scalability to ensure future capabilities can be incorporated with minimal integration effort
- Plug-in AI solutions for machine learning based tank detection and identification and driver assistance (changing soil conditions, gradients, and obstacles) – leverage powerful GPU resources of the NVIDIA Jetson TX2i to add decision support capabilities
Network Processing for Local Situational Awareness
Pleora’s RuggedCONNECT Network Video Processing Unit (NVPU) platform is a modular, scalable, open approach to real-time sensor networking that helps manufacturers meet interoperability and scalability demands in SWaP-C sensitive applications while reducing cognitive burden and increasing mission-effectiveness for end-users.
Military imaging systems have traditionally used point-to-point interfaces to connect sensors, processors, and displays. This approach adds costs, single-point-of-failure risk, and challenges future scalability. More critically, it results in difficult to operate systems for an already overburdened crew.
RuggedCONNECT converts sensor data from multiple sources into a standardized feed that is transmitted over a low latency, multicast Gigabit Ethernet network. With all devices connected to a common infrastructure, data can be transmitted to any combination of mission computers and displays. Vehicle crew can view information on a single display, and know immediately if something has changed in their environment.
