Systems that require multiple coordinated sensors (including sensor fusion) used for ISR, navigation in degraded environments, or infrared countermeasures are constantly trying to increase throughput to carry higher resolution images and video in real-time and with low latency. The need for ever higher throughput challenges system designers on every level, including the physical interface. Simply moving video efficiently from point to point or within a network in itself is a challenge. ARINC 818, the Avionics Digital Video Bus continues to expand into real-time video applications because of its low latency, robustness, and high throughput capabilities.
