Video is playing an increasingly important role in a growing range of military local situational analysis (LSA) applications to help improve surveillance and intelligence of possible threats while keeping troops out of harm’s way.
Increasingly, digital video based systems are becoming the technology of choice in both retrofit and new designs in order to better share video across an integrated Ethernet network, meet cost and size, weight, and power (SWaP) demands, support future scalability, and simplify usability. As part of this migration to Ethernet-based digital video systems, military designers are adopting an open architecture approach to help reduce costs and promote compatibility in multi-vendor applications.
