Eagle PMC Radar Scan Converter

PMC Radar Scan Converter
Eagle, a member of the Hawkeye family, is a flexible and powerful radar scan converter which is based upon field proven technology and comes in a compact and mechanically ruggedized PMC form factor. Eagle is a low power, rugged design that will operate in a wide range of environments, including conditions of high temperature and vibration. Radar data is passed to the card via high-speed PCI bus transfers. This can originate either from a CWCEC Osprey PMC Radar Input Card or via network from a radar video server. Eagle digitally combines the generated radar image with the output from a standard DVI output (PanelLink) graphics card, such as our Falcon PMC Graphics and Video Windows Card. There are many such DVI output graphics cards available. During video keying, the Eagle is able to place the video from the graphics card either as an underlay or as an overlay to the radar image. This feature is typically used to allow target symbols to be presented as overlays and maps to be presented as underlays.
