PikeOS for A400M - Rheinmetall Defence
Aerospace industry is still a technology leader. Regulations and economic aspectshave motivated airplane manufacturers to new pace. The IMA concept has beendeveloped to reduce the complexity of avionics devices in order to save costs ofproduction and maintenance of aircrafts. The PikeOS concept has been developedin order to fulfill these requirements. The new approach might also be a solutionfor other complex equipment systems that range in scale from automotive toindustrial automation.
Hamilton selected ELinOS to develop BioLevitator, the first benchtop 3D cell culture system on the market, delivering significant productivity gains for drug discovery and development, therapeutics and regenerative medicine.
The B. Braun Space infusion system represents the latest technology available to manage complex infusion therapies. Innovative design has resulted in a single pump platform that covers the entire spectrum of infusion therapy types (eg. general infusions, PCA, TCI…). Designed to meet the demands of today’s hospitals and beyond, the B. Braun Space infusion system provides clinicians with a complete system.
Safety-Critical Ethernet for flight data transmission - MEGGITT
The amount of electronic components used in airplanes is still rising. Additionally, the amount of information distributed and shared throughout the avionic network is increasing since applications more and more rely on information gathered from distributed systems.
Combining legacy code and Linux based functionality - Bucyrus (formerly Terex O&K)
Reuse of legacy code is becoming more and more of a crucial issue, and not only for cost sensitive devices. In the field of safety-critical applications, reuse of well tested and even certified software makes good economic sense if it can be enhanced by new functionality.
Traffic Management with PikeOS - Dambach Werke (formerly Signalbau Huber)
Software integration helps to economize the use of resources and grants access to joint functionalities and data for more than one application. Unfortunately, also disadvantages come along: a high system complexity and a lack of safety and security. Virtualization maximizes the benefits of integration by minimizing the disadvantages. Software integration on top of a virtualization platform offers even more opportunities – it provides the flexibility to respond to developing needs.
Linux provides a broad range of industrial interfaces and is widely used in industrial applications. But when it comes to hard real-time performance, the off-the-shelf capabilities of Linux are not sufficient. Safe and secure virtualization PikeOS solves this issue by allowing the combination of Linux ELinOS side by side with real-time operating systems on one platform. Furthermore, legacy code can be reused in its own partition – saving time and money.
Privacy for patients' health data with ELinOS - Hypercom (formerly Thales eTransactions)
Health data will be stored on a personal health insurance cards very soon. Card reader vendors have to expend great effort to assure privacy and to minimize potential misuse of data. This is not just a question of confidence, but needs to be certified formally.
SYSGO's embedded Linux expertise was selected by Zodiac Data Systems to develop airplane prototype measurement system. The two companies planned and developed together an intelligent mass storage device, an embedded system that is able to make an adjustable preprocessing and data reduction, and that saves the data on a mass storage device.
Honeywell selected ELinOS to develop a Building Automation System. SYSGO supports Honeywell with BSP development, update system development, and long-term system partnership.
The usage of a soft-PLC instead of a standard PLC is more and more likely in the automation industry. Instead of using dedicated hardware to realize a PLC, it is much more cost effective to use a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware with a software based PLC.
Rohde & Schwarz GmbH & Co. KG ranks among the world’s leading suppliers of test and measurement (T&M) equipment for mobile communications: Half of all mobile phones are developed and manufactured using T&M equipment from Rohde & Schwarz. The company’s T&M solutions are also intended for maintenance of current and future mobile radio systems. By providing innovative products for 3G and 4G, plus visionary solutions for future multimedia applications, Rohde & Schwarz plays a key role in tomorrow’s wireless communications.
Todays increasing demand for “every place” – “every time” connectivity defines new requirements for the automotive industry. Two years ago no one ever thought that there would be an iPOD connector as a standard option when ordering a new car.
LFK Lenkflugkörpersysteme GmbH (LFK) is a leading developer and manufacturer of missiles and associated systems. It is a member of the MBDA group, and has highly advanced capacities also in Ulm, Germany. MBDA is owned by EADS, BAE Systems and Finmeccanica.
