VistaNav Adds Approach Plates and VNAV Guidance
Along with EFIS displays, synthetic vision devices seems to be the must-have technological innovation of Sun ‘N Fun 2008. With its VistaNav product, Mercury Computer Systems stunned users of cockpit tablet computers with a sophisticated, easy-to-use software package that runs nicely on machines like Samsung SSDs and the popular Motion Computing platforms. At Sun ‘n Fun this week, the company announced VistNav 3.0, which adds an improved approach plate viewer and vertical guidance for descents and approaches. VistaNav already has impressive FLIR capability and sensor-originated synthetic vision using a terrain database. When configured as a Class I EFB, the system include an inertial navigation unit and a WAAS-capable GPS receiver with Bluetooth wireless interface. With the new 3.0 release, the software now supports the popular Samsung Q1 Ultra Mobile SSD tablet PC. See VistaNav in booth 95 (Hangar D) and on the web at VistaNav.com.
