DMM (Distant Medical Monitoring) is an eHealth platform supporting remote monitoring of biometric data and filing of respective electronic medical records. Data are transmitted and stored in an encrypted form, thus ensuring confidentiality. Transmission takes place either in real-time or asynchronously (Store & Forward) depending on Internet availability.

The ZigBee^TM USB dongle is a high performance, low power 2.4GHz ISM band transceiver and can perform digital data exchange between the air medium and the USB port of a host computer. Based on a 805.15.4 compliant DSSS transceiver it adds wireless network capability via the ZigBee standard to any device which employs USB. The dongle is available as network coordinator, network router or sensor-sink device versions, thus enabling its integration into existing or the formation of new wireless mesh networks.

Herodion is a multi-board architecture that can be utilized in order to capture, multiplex and deliver to PC main memory (through the PCI-X bus) in real time, video frames generated by a number of cameras that are hardware synchronized at pixel level. It is a high performance system, ideal for multi source video capture. The supported frame rate is up to 60 frames per second. Its hardware synchronized cameras at pixel level make it ideal for applications such as 3D modeling due to the lack of artifacts caused by motion. Its extremely powerful DMA engine enables any kind of image spatial processing to be implemented purely in hardware at no software cost. Its hierarchical architecture is fully scalable to any number of cameras. Current implementations of the system are able to support from 2 up to 72 VGA or WVGA CMOS cameras.

The Video Processing System (VIPS) is a mixed signal platform, which provides a real time hardware and software solution in the aircraft avionics test rig for the Head Up Display. It handles the video processing of the analog input signals arriving from the Head-Up Guidance system or the Electronic Unit and generates a standard digital video stream, which is transmitted over a LAN. The real time video stream is then merged with the video output from the Visual Scenery Generator to perform a a picture-over-picture task.

The VIPS supports the VGA standard for the video output in standard definition (SD) 1024x768 and the UDP/IP and Internet Protocol version 4 (IPV4) for the data transmission over the network. The streaming video format is uncompressed bitmap for low network traffic minimal delay for real time applications.

It supports analog input signals of various voltage levels in both single-ended and differential configuration, thanks to the parametrized analog front end. It can handle monochrome video with a wide input of frame rates.

The product comes with Demo/Configuration Software, supporting the Utility Toolkit GLUT v3.7 and was used successfully with FlightGear Simulator in a Linux box.

The 80S32 validation board was specifically developed for performing functional and performance validation of the 80S32 microcontroller, under an ESA contract. The FPGA based architecture of the board includes various components and peripheral devices for exercising the microcontroller under different conditions of varying voltage, temperature and operating frequency. A successful radiation campaign was performed using the board to determine the radiation sensitivity of engineering devices against Single Event Upsets (SEU).
