RTI to Showcase Open Architecture Messaging Software at AUVSI Unmanned Systems 2013
RTI will provide live demonstrations of its Connext™ DDS (Data Distribution Service) software.
SUNNYVALE, CA - Real-Time Innovations (RTI), the real-time infrastructure software company, today announced its participation at AUVSI Unmanned Systems 2013, the world's largest unmanned robotics symposium and exhibition, held on August 12-15, 2013 in Washington, D.C.
During the exposition, RTI will provide live demonstrations of its Connext™ DDS (Data Distribution Service) software. Connext DDS is widely used to develop and integrate Open Architecture autonomous systems, including those based on the UAV Control Segment (UCS) architecture and Future Airborne Capability Environment (FACE). The demonstration includes a small-footprint DDS implementation for resource-constrained devices and applications that require certification to stringent safety standards such as DO-178C Level A.
RTI Chief Applications Engineer, Gordon Hunt, will also be presenting at the event. In his talk, titled "Interoperable Architecture as a Foundation for Unmanned Vehicle Teaming," Gordon Hunt will take a closer look at key advances in system and system-of-systems architecture theory and practice. The presentation will consider how common data architecture enables an interoperable and dynamic implementation of teaming. Attendees will learn the definition of interoperable data architecture, current industry initiatives toward interoperable architectures, how to build in semantics for auto-discovery of AV capability and how to create a context-based (semantic) architecture.
To learn more about the benefits of Open Architecture Messaging Software, attendees can visit the RTI AUVSI Unmanned Systems' booth #3353.

Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
