International Airshow Featured the L-3 Display Systems
Large Area Avionics Display (LAAD) |
This
advanced digital display technology will revolutionize the cockpits in
both military and civilian aircraft alike |
Amongst
an array of L-3 products exhibited at this year’s Farnborough
International Air Show (July 14-20, 2008) was L-3 Display
System’s Large Area Avionics Display (LAAD).
The LAAD is the largest ruggedized
active matrix LCD ever developed for use in a 5th generation
tactical fighter aircraft. It features a double-width (20”
x 8”) , 2560 x 1024 resolution (greater than HDTV), active
matrix LCD with left and right independence, meaning that
if one half of the display malfunctions, the other side
can still be utilized. The dual infrared touch-panel display
features separate Open System Architecture VITA 46 processors
and LED backlighting. This type of low-energy backlight
means it runs very cool in use, which is important in modern
cockpits. Integration of all types of information includes,
but is not limited to instrumentation, mapping, navigation
and external sensor video inputs.
