| Litton Systems Canada Display Systems Engineering |
|
Involved in design and implementation of an LED-based cockpit display
system. Designed, implemented, tested and integrated a real-time kernel
that allows the system to be simulated on an IBM PC while running
on an Intel 80186 system.
|
|
Designed and partially implemented E2S, a DOD-STD-2167A compliant automated
test facility used to generate testbeds for individual EFIS systems. Wrote a
Target Description Language (TDL) language processor module which generated C++ output code to
produce a testbed customized for MIL-STD-1553B and ARINC 429 based EFIS
applications.
|
|
Designed and implemented sections of the firmware for Litton's Control Display Unit
(CDU), an 80C186 based MIL-STD-1553B bus device used to monitor and modify bus
traffic in the F-16 aircraft's onboard flight systems. The CDU complements
Litton's Inertial Navigation System (INS) and Navigation Control Units (NCU), as well
as controlling the Global Positioning System (GPS).
|
|
Designed and wrote LN20 model CDU's user interface, and integrated the system
with Litton's proprietary real-time kernel. Devised and implemented a PC hosted
CDU simulator.
|
|
Converted ethernet link to proNET-80 link in Litton's custom Display Processor
(DP). Modified Multibus II based DP to accept Multibus I based proNET
communications. through using Intel 8086 iSBC and Intel Link boards between
busses, under control of an Ada-controlled Central Services Module (CSM) driver.
|
|
Generated control software for a custom 2x2 inch LCD display head, used to
analyze visual factors affecting pilots in flight, such as sunlight readability,
antialiasing and viewing angle readability. Implemented several antialiasing
algorithms (Bresenham, Gaussian, Truncated Trapezoid, and Litton algorithms
under NDA). Developed altimeter scenarios, warning and threat annunciator
displays, artificial horizons, and many others.
|
|
Produced a neurological-visual assessment system in conjunction with the Universities
of Waterloo and Guelph. This optical system is used to monitor pilot fatigue under
simulated flight conditions.
