Government & Military

Problem

Often, standard server-class systems are adequate for a mission; however, sometimes the mission requires mobility and/or multiple locales in-theater. The usual options are transporting bulky, cumbersome servers that are physically ill-equipped to perform in harsh environments, or using high-end laptops. Ruggedized or not, laptops are simply incapable. They just don’t have the performance power or storage capacity needed for real-time, digital video acquisition needs.

Solution

NextComputing offers high-performance, portable workstations that enable mission critical, digital video acquisition, ideal for law enforcement and security outfits, the military, and other government associated agencies, such as NASA, NOAA, USNO, etc.

Our FleXtreme™ architecture uses standard Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) parts to deliver the high-performance processing and massive storage needed for in-theater digital video missions in compact, portable systems. The Vigor Evo HD "flextop" computer features the same high-end computing capabilities as the operator’s normal desktop workstation, complete with up to a three monitors, yet in a portable package, easily handled by one person, that's ready to support any digital video acquisition and usage needs.

End users and integrators can create portable workstations for:

• Real-time imaging and mapping, including 3D site and structural analysis
• Remote theater digital surveillance video capture and analysis
• UAV ground operations
• Training with 3D visualization and simulation applications

Problem

C4ISR covers vast territory, both figuratively and literally. Related Battle Management operations must be closely tied to C4ISR systems, and with the enormous amount of data employed in military operations, decision cycles may be compressed to a matter of minutes or seconds. To support this, effective computing systems require combinations of intensive data visualization and real-time analysis and communications.

Generally, standard Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) computing systems address many of the needs of C4ISR, Battle Management applications, and cross force interoperability. In the data center, operational units usually handle all the requirements of the mission, except delivering those capabilities to the forward deployment zone.

Delivery requires mobility. However, laptops are inadequate for the task, being either not rugged enough for the environment and/or lacking the basic computing capabilities required for the application.

Solution

NextComputing offers government / military agencies and the prime contractors that support them rugged, mobile, high-performance, graphics intensive systems for deployment in front line mobile command stations, where the compute power must be available wherever and whenever needed for coordinated, rapid responses.

Our FleXtreme™ architecture delivers high-performance, military-ready computing power inside compact, portable systems. The Vigor Evo HD "flextop" computer features the same high-end computing capabilities as the operator’s normal desktop workstation, complete with up to a three monitors, yet in a portable package, easily handled by one person, that's ready to go to any command station location.

End users and integrators can create portable workstations for:

• 3D site and structural analysis
• Intelligence or imagery analysis
• Geospatial imaging with Geographic or Global Information Systems
  
• Diagnostic and depot test controller
• Mission planning, command and control operations, and visualization
• On location data collection and forensic analysis
• Training with 3D visualization and simulation applications
