Advanced Processing Systems Honeywell Proprietary4 12/04/2003 Honeywell Integrated Payload
Advanced Processing Systems Honeywell Proprietary5 12/04/2003 Honeywell Market Need A market need has been established for an integrated payload processing system based on the Honeywell payload product line. To fulfill this need we must define a system hardware architecture based Honeywell payload processors and peripherals. A software system framework must also be defined to facilitate the integration of hardware components, horizontal services, and customer applications. The combined software and hardware must provide the capabilities desired by our customers. Integrated payload systems make application development easier.

Advanced Processing Systems Honeywell Proprietary12 12/04/2003 Honeywell 2003 IRAD Objective Primary Goal Integrate available subassemblies into a functional system model Develop system architecture to support the integration of heterogeneous payload systems Develop APIs to configure and manage available subassemblies Secondary Goal Develop a “flight-like” proof of concept application that can be utilized to support new program pursuits. Demonstrate ability to coordinate projects with other Honeywell sites We are well on our way to achieving our goals
Advanced Processing Systems Honeywell Proprietary13 12/04/2003 Honeywell Proof of Concept System Integration (PoCSI) Description
Advanced Processing Systems Honeywell Proprietary14 12/04/2003 Honeywell Demonstration goals To show the capabilities of the Integrated Payload by processing real-time video To show the reconfigurability of the system by implementing multiple modes of operation using reconfiguration To create an “eye-catching” demonstration that will draw customer interest To help develop standard interfaces and design flows for reuse by us and our customers
Advanced Processing Systems Honeywell Proprietary15 12/04/2003 Honeywell Design Considerations The HRSC has no microprocessor onboard. All functionality on the HRSC is implemented in hardware. Therefore, devices requiring software drivers to operate can not be used as PMC modules (for example webcams) Communication protocols such as IEEE 1394 and USB are complicated to implement in hardware (also costly) Most video formats such as composite video or S-video are analog Cameras that have digital video interfaces (such as CameraLink cameras) are cost prohibitive (price $4000+)

Advanced Processing Systems Honeywell Proprietary18 12/04/2003 Honeywell Software Architecture - Goals Significantly reduce initial integration effort. Reduce dependencies on specific hardware, operating system, and BSP versions. Provide a modern COTS-like development experience for customers. Provide a system that can be extended by additional nodes and additional capabilities. Maintain a distinction between new product line technologies and demonstration software.
Advanced Processing Systems Honeywell Proprietary19 12/04/2003 Honeywell Software Architecture - Functional Capabilities This is a functional model of the domain of payload processing systems. It provides us a tool for describing and understanding these systems. General services needed by most applications. These represent value-add opportunities where a customer typically invests effort, but does not focus on their specific application. These are basic computing environmental conditions. They relate to the ability to initialize a system, command peripherals, and develop traditional software services.
