Unprecedented realism and performance in complex training applications today. Scalable and adaptable for the challenges of
tomorrow.
At Rockwell Collins, we understand the need for unprecedented realism in simulations to mirror the varied environments and
situations pilots might encounter in the real world, while preparing for the unknown needs of the future.
The purpose-built Rockwell Collins EP®-8000 image generator system introduces a new paradigm for training applications, combining
groundbreaking realism and performance with a scalable, adaptable design to meet the most complex training requirements now
and in the future-at the lowest life-cycle cost.
Utilizing COTS FPGA technology, the EP®-8000 generates unparalleled scene density, environment processing, and performance.
Paired with a completely programmable graphics pipeline-unique to the marketplace-the EP®-8000 will protect your investment
in core visual system components while providing an open, scalable approach allowing new features and technology insertions
over the life cycle of the training program.
Key benefits:
Image Quality: Industry-leading image quality yielding superior pilot cues and target recognition
Upgradeability: Fully programmable graphics pipeline enables ease of feature enhancement with "boot-time" firmware upgrades
Speed: Dramatic increases in paging and database loading, allowing very high-resolution texture updates at maximum ownship velocities
Fidelity: Striking increase in fidelity with real-world scene density within a whole earth environment
Cost-Effective: Upgrade path preserves investment in EPX™ databases and host interfaces
Standards: Meets or exceeds training and regulatory requirements for fast jet and tactical helicopter applications
Resolution: Easily drives beyond Quad-WUXGA resolution with geometric distortion correction and ultra-sharp antialiasing for unprecedented
visual acuity
Reliable: Highly reliable and maintainable for up to 20 years
