Orlando, FL, December 2, 2024 – Concurrent Real-Time, a global pioneer in high-performance real-time Linux® solutions, and United Electronic Industries (UEI), an AMETEK company and leader in rugged data acquisition and control systems, today announced plans to explore advanced real-time solutions for aerospace testing, defense applications, and industrial automation.
The collaboration aims to offer Concurrent Real-Time's RedHawk Linux® RTOS and Simulation Workbench with UEI's flexible avionic data acquisition and control hardware, specifically targeting iron bird systems testing and flight simulation applications. This initiative seeks to enable customers to develop and deploy advanced real-time systems with enhanced precision and reliability for these demanding aerospace testing environments.
"We are excited to work with UEI to explore the potential synergies between our technologies," said Susan Kelly, General Manager of Concurrent Real-Time. "This collaboration will allow us to investigate delivering innovative solutions and enhance the value we provide to our customers by potentially offering a comprehensive and tightly integrated platform for mission-critical applications."
The collaboration focuses on several key areas of development. The companies plan to integrate RedHawk Linux RTOS with PowerDNA hardware, which enhances real-time control and data acquisition capabilities for a wide variety of simulation environments. This technical exploration aims to evaluate opportunities for guaranteed deterministic behavior and assess how parallel processing capabilities might handle increasingly complex models.
The partnership specifically targets sophisticated aerospace testing applications, where precise control and reliable data acquisition are essential. The integration of these technologies could provide significant advantages in “iron bird” testing, allowing for more accurate simulation of flight systems and enhanced validation of critical aerospace components. These capabilities could extend to other areas of aerospace ground simulation and systems testing, where the combination of real-time computing and advanced I/O capabilities is crucial for system validation and verification.
Customers can utilize real-time computers with RedHawk Linux RTOS and the Simulation Workbench framework, communicating with UEI PowerDNA I/O and avionics for their simulators and test stands. This integration aims to provide a more streamlined approach to complex simulation and testing scenarios.
