HUNTSVILLE, Ala. Abaco Systems introduced the SBC3518, what it terms a rugged, SOSA aligned 3U VPX single-board computer built on Intel’s Core Ultra Series 3 processors (formerly Panther Lake) that is intended for use in extremely demanding defense, aerospace, and commercial applications. 

Simon Collins, Director of Product Management at Abaco Systems, covers Abaco's position, navigation, and timing (PNT) tech as well as their rugged VPX solutions at DSEI UK 2025.

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. Ametek Abaco Systems introduced the GRA117SVIO, an Open VPX 3U video graphics and GPGPU card aligned with the Sensor Open Systems Architecture, or SOSA, Technical Standard.

This week’s product, the Abaco Systems FMC300 Wideband Low Latency FMC Module, integrates high-performance analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) and digital-to-analog conversion (DAC) capabilities. The module – aligned to the Sensor Open Systems Architecture, or SOSA, Technical Standard – is designed for mission-critical military applications such as software-defined radio (SDR), electronic warfare (EW), and digital radar.

This week’s product, the Abaco Systems SBC3901, is a 3U VPX single-board computer (SBC) that provides artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities for autonomous and embedded edge computing systems. Built to meet MIL-STD-810 standards, the SBC3901 is designed for performance in extreme conditions for defense and aerospace applications like sensor fusion, robotics, and autonomous systems.

Built to meet MIL-STD-810 standards, the SBC3901 is designed to withstand extreme conditions and ideal for defense and aerospace applications like sensor fusion, robotics, and autonomous systems.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a real buzzword across all industries right now, but coverage across the media spectrum is not always helpful. We’re seeing mind-boggling new technical capabilities being demonstrated each week, but it’s often hard to tie these to real-world use-cases; this, coupled with hype-to-bust predictions and discussions about “artificial general intelligence” serve to further distort the narrative.
