MRI scanners, CT scanners and ultrasound imaging systems typically require powerful data acquisition, digital signal processing and data recording solutions. Sarsen understand that medical customers have special requirements, so we supply high speed data acquisition and powerful embedded computing hardware, specifically for these kinds of applications.
Sarsen Technology represents a range of US manufacturers
with a proven track record in supplying high reliability solutions to the
medical industry.
Conduant’s Big River™ RTX16 Digital Recording
System is configured to provide clients with StreamStor ® high-speed recording
and play-back technology, built into a heavy-duty industrial 19” rack-mount
chassis that includes a PCI backplane for COTS component flexibility, a set of
individually removable hard disk drives for data storage and an onboard Dual
Core Xeon Server that can be used to handle command and control as well as data
manipulation. The Big River™ RTX16 recording chassis configurations provide
clients with 16 removable hard disk drives for multiple terabytes of data
storage capacity and can be used to support a variety of data streaming
applications such as medical imaging.
BittWare’s hybrid signal processing boards provide an ideal
solution for medical imaging systems designers. These boards provide the
programming flexibility of an FPGA with the number-crunching power of a DSP,
integrated by an innovative architecture – BittWare’s ATLANTiS Framework,
allowing system designers to use both to their full advantage to get their
products to market quickly and cost-effectively.
United Electronic Industries (UEI) has worked with NASA, supplying the UEIPAC
Cube to perform an essential role in controlling the COLBERT treadmill in the
new space station exercise facility. The astronauts need the treadmill both for
exercise and for maintaining bone density in a gravity-free environment. Some
of the functions monitored by the UEIPAC are characteristics of the astronaut’s
gait and foot impact forces while exercising on the treadmill. This is
determined by sensing data of various types from accelerometers and load cells
in the treadmill and associated restraining equipment.
