Mt. Laurel, NJ, November 2004 –Lockheed Martin [NYSE: LMT recently completed a successful Captive Flight Test (CFT) of a laser radar (LADAR) seeker with real-time automatic target recognition (ATR) algorithms.
Mt. Laurel, NJ, November 2004 –Lockheed Martin [NYSE: LMT recently completed a successful Captive Flight Test (CFT) of a laser radar (LADAR) seeker with real-time automatic target recognition (ATR) algorithms. The test represented the first time Lockheed Martin has used ATR software developed using the Graphical Entry Distributed Application Environment (Gedae), developed by Gedae, Inc. This software allowed Lockheed Martin to rapidly partition the algorithms to different processors and identify and correct potential processing “bottlenecks” in the software processing flow.
“Our mission is to provide superior weaponry to our warfighters that serves them in their defining moments,” said Dr. Walter H. Delashmit, systems engineer senior staff at Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control. “As we continue to evaluate ways of making our systems more robust and operationally effective, it’s encouraging to have a success like this using state-of-the-art tools.”
Gedae, a block diagramming programming tool, automatically implements high quality deployable software, improving productivity by 5x. This greatly reduces time-to-market for new products, as well as development and life cycle costs. Gedae implements the application by generating code targeted specifically to embedded hardware and an embedded multiprocessor, after the system software functionality has been developed and verified on a workstation. The developer is given complete control over the implementation, which employs over 100 algorithms applied by Gedae. The result rivals hand-coded efficiency and quality, but with dramatically less development effort.
The versatile tool can be used for all aspects of development including signal and data processing, application control, and integration with other systems. Gedae provides a complete programming solution, eliminating complex and costly interfaces between tools and the inefficiencies of mixed development methodologies.
Gedae President and CEO Bill Lundgren said, “We’re excited to see the significant productivity improvement that our customers are recognizing through the use of Gedae. With its ease of use and expanded functionality, we anticipate Gedae’s use in many other data processing and control applications.”
