GE Intelligent Platforms’ CRS-D4I-3VB1
rugged system is a packaged prevalidated
data processing and control computer
system with an Intel-based processor single
board computer that provides a rugged
and highly flexible computing platform
suited for applications requiring rock-solid
reliability such as civilian and military UAVs,
manned commercial and military aircraft,
helicopters, over- and underwater research
vessels, ground vehicles, and locomotives.
GE’s COTS-based CRS-D4I-3VB1 Application
Ready computer system can be deployed
in the field as soon as your application
is ready, or use the CRS-D4I-3VB1 as a
starting point for multiple application
specific configurations.
The arduous task of integrating off the shelf
boards has already been done for you —
shortening your time to project completion.
You have one point of contact for all issues
and a single part number — not a collection
of parts.
The CRS-D4I-3VB1 successfully integrates
GE’s boards, and modules, drawn from
their wide selection of COTS boards,
into open modular systems that can be
tested and qualified for rugged systems
deployment. The CRS-D4I-3VB1 contains
a fully integrated set of boards and
modules designed to fulfill control and
data processing applications. GE Intelligent
Platforms’ Systems Group is fully compliant
with AS9100 processes and brings years
of experience designing rugged systems
to your project. Our world class program
management competencies are tailored to
help mitigate your risk. GE can conducts all
design, analysis, manufacturing, and testing
in compliance with any system appropriate
MIL and industry standards such as
MIL-STD-810, 704, 461, and DO-160.
GE has integrated and tested the
CRS-D4I-3VB1 and provides Board Support
Packages (BSP’s) and drivers that you can
easily use to integrate your application
and reduce your software development
cycle time.
To help jump start your project, GE offers
Laboratory Development Units, or starter
kits, preconfigured for development
purposes. Based on the required system
controller architecture and bus system, GE
can provide the appropriate development
system for your specific needs.
