Graphics and display technologies in the Navy's AN/UYQ-70 program

摘要

Abstract: The information contained in this paper is derived from Technology Investigation (TI) Studies conducted by Lockheed Martin, Tactical Defense Systems as part of the U.S. Navy AN/UYQ-70 Contract for Graphics and Display Systems. The authors have revised and edited the information to develop this paper. The complete Technology Investigation Studies, subject to U.S. Navy distribution restrictions, may be requested from Naval Sea Systems Command, Code PMS440SE. This paper will present a brief overview of Graphics and Display Technologies as they exist today related to the Navy's AN/UYQ- 70 program. Discussion will be given on the basic components of a graphics system, as well as graphical application programming interfaces. We will then look briefly at some graphics technology implementations on VME and PCI, and discuss the new, emerging Accelerated Graphics Port Standard. Final discussions on the AN/UYQ-70 view of industry trends and where the AN/UYQ-70 is going relative to graphics technology are presented in the conclusion. !0
