Video Distribution Systems

Our video solutions deliver low-latency, reliable digital video using widely adopted open standards. Designed as a distributed system with built-in redundancy, they maximize operational availability and reliability. Screen-sharing capabilities allow alternate operators to monitor or take control of ongoing operations when needed.

Key facts

Ultra-low latency video
Reliable distribution
Day and night capacity

Resilient, Distributed Architecture

To avoid single points of failure, the system does not rely on a centralized video processor. Each node has independent processing and control capabilities, ensuring that if one component fails, the remaining system continues to operate. This architecture provides robust performance and enhances resilience in mission-critical environments.

Standards-Based Interoperability

The solutions comply with Def Stan 00-82 and are NGVA-compatible, ensuring seamless interoperability across vehicle platforms and subsystems. H.264 compression enables efficient video exchange over limited bandwidth

High-Performance FPGA Integration and Flexible Sensor Integration
All functionality is integrated on an FPGA-based platform for maximum performance, efficiency, and minimal use of size, weight, and power (SWaP).

The system forms a digital video backbone, capable of distributing critical video from sensor to display. It supports Saab sensors as well as legacy systems, with conversion solutions for HD-SDI, analogue PAL/NTSC, or RS-170 inputs to digital Def Stan 00-82.

Role-Specific Workstations

Vehicle roles have distinct video needs: commanders require Local Situational Awareness System (LSAS) support, drivers need Driver Vision Enhancement (DVE), and gunners demand ultra-low-latency sight information for Remote Weapon Stations (RWS) or counter-UAS operations. Configurable features allow creation of optimized, role-specific workstations that maintain interoperability, security, and NGVA compliance.
