User Views • GVA-suggested Human Machine Interface • Video compatibility and selection via middleware. • Digital image quality. • Remote Weapon System control via middleware. • Surveillance Sight control via middleware.
Concluding Views Conclusions • Def Stan 00-82 Video interfaces - high quality, low latency. • Cost-effective Def Stan 00-82 implementation. • Middleware – mount & video select approach promising .... tool costs, operating system overheads & security to be addressed in Land context. • Data Model the major architecture effort .... further work needed. Modular Sensor System flexibility .......... management of complexity. Sustained technical effort is essential. Recommendations • Plan for many payload and tailoring possibilities within the Def Stan 00-82 standard. • Lessons learned to be fed into Def Stan 00-82 update. • Continue Data Model development via more formal route. • Update procurement strategies to support subsystem upgrade through-life. Initiative of VSI should continue. Unique applied research forum separate from programme delivery. Precise objectives and continuity of funding.
