San Francisco, Calif. — 3 August 2021 — Aechelon Technology, Inc. announced today that it had been awarded a contract by Aero Simulation Inc. (ASI), for the U.S. Coast Guard HC-27J  Image and Sensor Generators as well as Global Geo-specific Databases.

The HC-27J Spartan aircraft is intended for USCG missions such as maritime patrol, surveillance, search-and-rescue, drug and migrant interdiction, and disaster response. It is also used to detect, classify and identify maritime targets.

Aechelon Technology will supply its state-of-the-art pC-NOVA Nucleus™ 8-GPU Image Generators, a true multi-spectral multi-channel compact image generator featuring Multi-GPU NVIDIA® Quadro® with a dramatically reduced footprint. The Aechelon Nucleus incorporates C4ISR grade GPU-based simulation of OTW and NVG for the U.S. Coast Guard ISR Platform.

The system integrates a full resolution worldwide 3D visual and sensor database with extensive domestic and foreign areas of interest. This Global database is already deployed and being used on other programs without the need of down-sampling, de-rating, or modification—thus ensuring complete correlation and commonality with all other U.S. Coast Guard fixed-wing and rotorcraft and U.S. DoD devices also utilizing Aechelon Technology Image Generators.
