VISUALIZATION EFFICIENCY SURVIVABILITY
FIELDED LAND BASED DISPLAY SOLUTIONS
Fielded land based display solutions | 02
Visualization solutions for modern military vehicles Brimar aims to provide visualization solutions which offer enhanced efficiency & survivability for modern military vehicles. Its complete product line is designed for harsh military environments which is based on proven & qualified electronic modules with the added ingredients of our experience and know how.
Most electronic components such as LCD (Liquid Cristal Display) are not designed to withstand the wide temperature range or the high vibration levels on board a military tracked vehicle. Brimar starts the ruggedisation process at the individual component level and carries this through to the assemblies, up to the final product.
Brimar delivers a qualified fielded product, resulting from high workmanship standards, repetitive testing and strict quality procedures. We use the latest available COTS technology and adapt it to the military environment which enables faster prototyping, value engineering & ongoing technology insertion. After the final delivery of the system, a tailored Integrated Logistic Support (ILS) will ensure the end-user of a high quality solution throughout the complete life-cycle of the system.

Text and Graphic Overlay Most Brimar displays are equipped with the text and graphical overlay which allows the MMI to be customized for each individual application or partner. Graticules, gauges, icons, compasses, menu’s. graphical representation of vehicle turret gun etc.
Function Keys The functionality of the display enables the customization of the function keys to meet the application specifications by means of:> Number of keys > Labeling of keys > Back light > Each key press enables a serial command which allows full integration of the display within the system
RONMENTS
Recording We offer recording of the video data as well as all screen messages, functional key interaction & graphical overlays. The information is stored on High speed sealed memory stick in AVI format. The recording has inbuilt time & DATE stamp, one touch recording. We also offer secure video encryption as an available option with one touch recording, date & timestamp, read only. > Standard API > Encryption > One touch record with read only highlight > Continuous recording facility > Inbuilt date & timestamp > User friendly file storage > Instant playback (play, FF, FR, pause etc) > PIP > Freeze frame & frame advance function > Audio I/O
Application Software Platform
Picture-inPicture We offer the capability to display 4 images simultaneously from up to 10 different video sources with the ability then to resize, reposition, overlay, fuse, quad display, panoramic
Connectivity
We can interface via appropriate serial communication such as Rs232, Rs422, Canbus, MILcan A & B to a variety of peripheral equipment (host Pc, nav system, sensor, BMS etc) and I/O devices such as blackout.
MMI
MMI touch screen, pointing device, joystick, keyboard, data entry As part of its customized solutions offering Brimar is capable of integrating input devices on the display. A touch screen or pointing device can be easily fitted on the creen and will allow the commander to interact in an ergonomic way with the Battlefield Management System (BMS). Or, a keyboard can be added to set up a multi functional crew station.
Training output Embedded training features are becoming more and more important, as mission rehearsal and crew briefings can be done in the vehicle itself. The Brimar displays provided a unique feature to copy the complete screen content and follow all operator interactions on a slaved display device
Low latency Latency in an indirect visualization system should be considered from pixel-to-pixel, meaning that each component in the visualization chain, such as the camera, the video distribution/processing, the analogdigital conversion and finally the LCD, will contribute to the total result. Brimar takes care of each of these steps, by selecting an LCD panel with low response times and optimizing the video circuitry and processing algorithms for the highest throughput and lowest delay.
