Ultra's innovative hands-on technology is in daily use in the many advanced land-based combat vehicles and safety critical systems. 'Electrics' manufactures a range of standard and customised mission critical solutions for the management and control of complex systems. From commander to driver, Ultra's products are designed to reduce operator workload and increase operational effectiveness.
Power management systems
A power distribution system for military vehicles would consist of a power generation system, power distribution unit, hull junction boxes, commander's and crew control panel, and driver's instrument panel for each of the vehicles, all of which are databus enabled. An innovative conductance based battery monitoring system is also available to enable intelligent power management solutions.
Ruggedised network infrastructure
The latest technologies have been incorporated into control handle designs to increase reliability, reduce costs and enable interfacing to databus based systems. Developments include non-contact Hall-effect position sensing, CAN bus interfaces and Time Triggered Protocol (TTP) interfaces for safety critical applications.
Human Machine Interface (HMI) solutions
A comprehensive range of gunner's, commander's and driver's control handles designed by Ultra is in service on military vehicle programmes worldwide. Products include fixed, 2-axis and duplex (two handed) handles as well as steering yokes and gear range selectors.
Situational awareness
Ultra has an established expertise in the specification and integration of crewstation displays within fighting vehicles. Displays enhance battlespace situational awareness by enabling the crew to select and view images and information from externally mounted sensors, battle management computers and vehicle systems.
