Hello guys,
Long time no OSG – but that might change soon though :)
HI Bart. Long time no talk.
The idea is to make a flat (pizza box like) aluminum casing which holds
the complete hardware solution: LCD screen, side/line buttons, power
supply, and an embedded computer. This box would then be "Velcro-ed" on
top of the primary flight display in the cockpit simulator and it would
get its flight information via the flight lab Ethernet network.
I have some experience with building embedded (Linux based) systems, but
never one that included accelerated 3D graphics requirements. So I am
looking for some input on hardware solutions which would be able to
support my goal.
I have briefly Google-ed for single board computers (SBC) which have
descent OpenGL support and accelerated graphics (e.g. AR-B1891 with an
ATI Mobility Radeon 9000), but I wanted to also check if anyone else in
the OSG community has actually done something similar or has a good idea
on these sort’s of embedded real-time graphics applications.
Do you have size requirements sorted out? I expect you could find a 1U rack unit and
find some devious way to jam a real (NVidia) graphics card into it.
Much appreciated!
Cheers
~Bart
