NATIONAL HARBOR, Maryland. Curtiss-Wright, in collaboration with Wind River, Ansys, and CoreAVI, is demonstrating a new digital cockpit flight display at this year's MOSA Industry & Government Summit & Expo.
This display is built around the Curtiss-Wright 3U VPX V3-1708 DO-254 safety-certifiable NXP Layerscape LX2160A Arm processor board, which aligns with Future Airborne Capability Environment (FACE) standards. The demonstration will take place at Wind River’s booth (#130) and feature the utilization of all sixteen cores of the NXP Layerscape processor, running a DO-178C DAL A RTOS, according to a statement released by the companies.
The hardware includes Curtiss-Wright’s V3-717 3U VPX safety-certifiable AMD E8860 graphics board, employing CoreAVI graphics drivers to support a Multi-Touch Cockpit Display Application developed with Ansys SCADE software on the Wind River Helix Virtualization Platform. This platform is a multi-core, multi-tenant, DO-178C DAL A certifiable type 1 hypervisor-based solution, the statement reads.
