The Video Interface Computer (VIC) with Flat Panel Display developed by Land Systems Dynamics has been specifically designed to enhance the operator interface required in today's digital battlefield.
This VIC offers the user a remote perspective of the battlefield while assisting him with tactical and navigational information overlaid on the video image generated by the sight. Combined with extensive processing power necessary for functions such as ballistics calculations and utilizing the latest electronic interfaces, the unit allows for simple, yet effective system integration. It's compact size and low weight allows for installation in confined spaces, while still maximising the display area for panoramic vision in combination with accurate aim-point refinement.
The Video Interface Computer excels development cycles by enabling the client to create his own specific product applications such as:
- Client developed, man machine interface using the high detailed graphical overlay capability
- Utilising high-speed communications and ample processing power to perform ballistic and control functions.
- Hardware platform, conforming to operating system requirements, such as Windows, VxWorks and Linux (open source).
