3 Day Open Conference

High Speed Digital Data Recorders with Turn-key Software
Tuesday 18th November 2008
12.40 - 13.00
Auditorium 2

There are several trends apparent in the data acquisition arena - analog to digital converter technology is improving, providing both improved bit resolution, and higher sampling rates for applications requiring large number of channels. This is especially challenging if the system requirement is to record the sensor data in real-time at rates exceeding 400Mbytes/ second with near real-time displays. GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms has been the one of very few companies to develop an integrated Digital Data Recorder (DDR) with a powerful turn-key software which provides out-of-the-box system solution. This presentation will discuss the system architecture and various available rack-mount and portable DDR systems. It will also present a layered software architecture with a middleware to support many different demanding applications.It will briefly discuss all supported aerospace applications and the benefits of such an architecture.
