3 Faster Decision Making, Day and Night Helmet Mounted Systems Ferranti Technologies supplies advanced Helmet Mounted Systems for both fixed and rotary wing aircraft, combat, training & transport aircraft and supplies both the military and commercial markets. Faster Decision Making, Day and Night Ferranti Technologies helmet mounted display systems can incorporate a world leading head tracking capability giving the added advantages of 3D Conformal Symbology, target designation, weapon and sensor slaving and the processing and displaying of tactical information, both day and night. Enhanced Mission Performance Our combat proven solutions greatly enhance situational awareness by displaying aircraft system & mission data in front of the eye. This provides significant safety advantages, enhanced situational awareness and improves mission performance. DNVG can help to: Improve situational awareness Improve crew coordination Reduce intercom traffic Facilitate targeting Improve mission efficiency Enhance helicopter self-protection Ferranti Technologies DNVG solutions are available in a range of formats: DNVG - standard night symbology DNVG-24 - incorporates night and day symbology DNVG-T - night symbology with head tracking DNVG-24T - night and day symbology with head tracking system Ferranti Technologies have developed a unique system combining aircraft sensors and an intuitive 3D Conformal Symbology that greatly enhances situational awareness when brownout and whiteout conditions are encountered. 3D CS is an intuitive display, linked to highly accurate sensors that enable the aircrew to safely handle the aircraft in close proximity to the ground in extreme degraded visual conditions. 3D CS has been proven in flight and simulation and is delivered using the standard DNVG-24T head up displays that are in-service worldwide, allowing the pilot to remain heads out at all times. 3D CS has been developed by operational pilots that understand the challenges of operating in harsh environments. HMA technology puts advanced avionics directly into your helmet, minimizing the integration to the platform and enhancing performance. Designed for cost effectiveness, the UK Targo is now more broadly accessible to Fighter, Training, Air Transport and Emergency Service platforms and aircrew. JEDEYE JEDEYE is the ultimate in Helmet Mounted Displays for rotary aircraft. JEDEYE allows pilots to take in the entire scene with wider than ever areas of ground and sky displayed with crystal clear, high resolution and crisp focus. Display Night Vision Goggles 3D Conformal Symbology UK Targo Ferranti Technologies supply a range of Display Night Vision Goggle (DNVG) systems suitable for both utility and attack helicopters. In operation on over 5000 helicopters and 25 different platform types, DNVG can be installed on any helicopter. Landing, taking off and manoeuvring in degraded visual environments such as dust clouds Brownout) and re-circulating snow (Whiteout) continues to be the cause of accidents, injuries and loss of aircraft for armed forces around the world. UK Targo is the next generation of Helmet Mounted Avionics, (HMA) technology adapted for the UK by a world leading team. 4 5
