September 22, 2008:
NAV Portugal - the Air Navigation Service Provider of Portugal
- has awarded a contract to AviBit to extend the existing A-SMGCS
by its HMI. Apart from the HMI the project will also include an
SMR Raw Video Conversion function which receives SMR Raw Video from
the existing SMR and provides it in digital format via network to
the NAV Portugal System for further processing.
The AviBit HMI - a proven HMI for A-SMGCS Display
The AviBit HMI has been developed in a very close cooperation with
Air Traffic Controllers from Vienna Airport. The system is highly
accepted by the controllers and is the optimum solution to cope
with the requirements from NAV Portugal. The AviBit HMI will run
in parallel with the NAV in-house developed HMI and both of them
are served by the AviBit tracker and data fusion.
The SMR Raw Video Conversion Function which will also be provided
by AviBit is based on a custom AviBit hardware which reads the SMR
Raw video directly from the SMR in digital or analog format and
allows to send it via an industry standard USB 2.0 interface to
a processing server which in turn sends the raw video data over
a standard Ethernet LAN to NAV Portugal systems.
The time-frame for the delivery of the system is quite short. Installation
and acceptance are planned for December 2008.
