Vision System Applications

ENSCO’s vision system applications are enhancements to our core products that are based on specific needs identified in a particular warfare or civilian environment. These enhancements are integrated with our highly touted TSVS and/or CVS to tailor the system to meet user needs. This feature-rich product, with tailored capabilities, allows pilots, operators and command and control decision makers to observe the tactical environment from any perspective. The presentation of tactical data from multiple sources allows them to perform the most demanding tasks faced by both military and civilian flight crews.

TSVS was designed to operate in general purpose graphics hardware and can be hosted on a variety of airborne or ground-based systems. It can also be integrated into existing displays, which significantly reduces integration costs.

ENSCO Vision Systems applications include:

Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS)

The TSVS can be integrated into an Unmanned Air System ground control station to display the vehicle’s position relative to terrain, urban features, obstacles, controlled airspace, special use airspace, and threat volumes. In doing so, TSVS offers a real-time image that eliminates atmospheric obscurations and synthesizes information from multiple sources into a single, clear, accurate three dimensional (3-D) display of the external environment.

Urban Warfare (UW)

TSVS is a valuable tool for air crews engaged in missions in urban environments because it goes beyond the capabilities of a traditional tactical display. TSVS produces a computer-generated image of the external scene topography that is derived from aircraft state, a high-precision navigational solution and government-furnished databases defining cultural features such as buildings, towers, power lines, etc.

Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW)

As an Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) tool, TSVS offers military aircrews an understanding of their operational environment that far exceeds traditional two-dimensional (2-D) tactical displays. TSVS processes information from terrain and bathymetry databases, acoustic propagation models, and real-time information from onboard sensors (e.g., acoustic, radar, electronic warfare, etc.) and outside sources such as Tactical Data Links (TDLs) and intelligence.

Mine Warfare (MW)

TSVS easily integrates with different systems, from adapting to a stand alone laptop to fully interfacing with an existing combat system to display information generated by these mine hunting systems. TSVS can be operated onboard surface ships, submarines and special operating forces teams using semi-submersible vehicles to provide data processing, display, recording and mission analysis capabilities.

Joint Mission Planning System (JMPS)

TSVS can be integrated with a Joint Mission Planning System (JMPS) to improve pilot situational awareness by adding a 3-D display to the current 2-D maps. The modified JMPS will provide the user with a high-resolution 2-D/3-D synthetic image of the mission area, greatly improving the availability and quality of information necessary for mission-critical decisions.
