MOSArt

Modular open-system architecture for real-time avionics

Key benefits:

  • Flexibility
  • Time and spatial software segregation
  • Preservation of intellectual properties
  • Easy integration of many functionalities in one box
  • Flexibility toward future evolutions
  • Reduced development effort and cost improved reusability
  • Easy obsolescence management
  • ARINC 653 compliant
  • Certifiable up to DO-178B Level A
  • Reduced time to market

Flexible, cost-efficient solution:

The large range of available interfaces makes the system very flexible towards future evolutions. MOSArt can easily be upscaled or downscaled to meet specific application needs without costly hardware changes.

Optimal obsolescence management:

With Barco's MOSArt platform, obsolescence management is made easy and affordable as potential changes are hidden from the application. Moreover, users can take advantage of the larger product base installed, even if a particular application has a limited series spread over the years.
