Neya Systems LLC to Provide Cost-Free Community License to UxSDK for UCS Software Development Kit

Neya Systems, LLC is pleased to announce a cost-free Community License of its UxSD for UCS Software Developers Kit.

WEXFORD, Pa., April 29, 2015 -- Neya Systems is making available a cost-free Community License version of UxSDK for UCS (http://neyasystems.com/products/uxsdk-new-2/), its Software Developer Kit for the Department of Defense UCS Architecture and UCS Repository. The SDK offers a validated UCS Developer Library and automated interface code generation tools to lower barrier to entry, improve conformance and code testing, increase code portability, and enable custom expansions.


Neya Systems, LLC is pleased to announce a cost-free Community License of its UxSDK for UCS Software Developers Kit. The SDK is in use by a variety of commercial and government customers, to support software development with the UCS Architecture. Neya, which has played a leading role in the development of the UCS Architecture, is providing this SDK to encourage further adoption of the standard, and reduce the cost of UCS integration.

UxSDK for UCS supports C++ and Java software generation to a variety of commercial DDS implementations. This greatly increases code portability, as the application developer only has one API to deal with, while being able to leverage multiple middleware layers. Power users have access to the core internals of the middleware, in order to take advantage of vendor-specific features and capabilities.

The SDK core features include:

* Full support for UCS R3.4 Service Descriptions and ICD
* Support for RTI, PrismTech, and Twin Oaks DDS
* Support for Java and C++ Code Generation
* Easy-to-use User Interface (UI) and documentation
* Linux and Windows environments (for generated code)

In addition to simplifying the deployment of UCS within legacy systems, the SDK supports the goals of Better Buying Power 3.0 by not requiring runtime royalties or licensing. Our Community License version is provided to US Industry and the Government on a per-project basis, after which all run-time generated UCS code is completely unrestricted. Companies that integrate SDK-generated code do not owe Neya any runtime royalties on their use of this code. We feel that this greatly simplifies the "make-buy" decision for UCS integration, allows for easier integration of our SDK within government programs, and provides an easy to track licensing model that is a win for all parties.

How cameras deliver sharp images despite changing distances

How cameras deliver sharp images despite changing distances

IDS Imaging Development Systems offers a range of models, from a webcam-like camera in industrial quality to a tiny autofocus camera that weighs just12 grams. The 13 MP autofocus camera uEye XC closes the market gap between industrial cameras and webcams. Setting up and operating only requires a cable connection. After that, the autofocus camera immediately delivers high-resolution, detailed images and videos. With the optionally available, quickly exchangeable macro lens, users can easily shorten the minimum object distance of the camera. This makes it also suitable for close-up applications. Focus from a distance of just 10 cm. The uEye XS is even more compact and fits into almost any application with its size of just 26.4 x 23 x 21.7 mm. Thanks to its autofocus and 5 MP CMOS sensor, it delivers consistently sharp images and videos from a distance of just 10 cm. When it comes to image quality, natural color reproduction and harmonious contrast are also decisive factors. IDS has therefore equipped the uEye XS with many other practical automatic features familiar from consumer technology. This includes white balance, exposure and gain. As a result, it delivers the best possible result in every situation.
