SolAero DAL B Computer for Airborne Instruments

SolAero is the high-performance avionics computer in a small housing that can fit any
cockpit application.

SolAero has capabilities to drive dual screens at 4K resolution, high-performance video processing, a large number of discrete I/O and networking through several avionics buses. SolAero is particularly well suited to non-standard custom certifiable cockpit applications optimised for specific aircraft, even at low production volumes.

SolAero comes fully integrated with its SolOS operating system and executable. SolOS
provides built-in support for a large number of avionics interfaces and standards for Primary Flight Display, MFD, Navigation Display, Flight Management Systems, EICAS systems and therefore enables fully integrated cockpits for even small-volume or customised aircraft.

Development licences are available for our clients to customise SolAero to their final application on a range of commercial computer platforms such as Microsoft Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS. These commercial platforms also allow simulation, integration and user interface testing on non-certified platforms.
