The Unmanned Vehicle Mission Computer (UVMC) is a modular, high performance system that provides maximum flexibility for easy integration into multiple platforms. It was developed with high-level mission planning capabilities and vehicle sensor integration as key feature capabilities.
The field proven UVMC is designed with an advanced parallel processing architecture that utilizes a 760 MIPS main processor for computationally intensive autopilot control algorithms and an FPGA based processing module for Input/Output signal control requirements.
This unique architecture allows the core autopilot software to remain separate from the I/O software, thus offloading I/O functions from the main processor.
The UVMC includes interfaces for external GPS and IMU modules as well as RS-232/485/422, CAN, HDLC, 10Base100 Ethernet, JTAG, and ITCS. A removable Compact Flash module is also available to support high speed data recording requirements.
The UVMC utilizes a Common Interface Bus architecture
that provides expansion capability for additional I/O and additional communication interfaces.
