According to Naval Technology*, updated technology is going to be rolled out across all future defence platforms and should be completed by 2030 for all warships, aircraft and land systems.

Naval Technology

The importance of today’s warships being equipped with the correct technical equipment is of high importance. Recognised as one of the largest platforms to carry complex weapons, equipment and today’s technology.

According to Naval Technology the goal is for all naval ships to undertake long endurance missions with less human interaction through advanced technology *. Naval Technology later went on to say the core to the competition is developing technologies that change the way the British Armed Forces approach decision-making, mission planning and automation, with a key goal of the competition’s second phase being the exploitation of a ‘human-machine network that could work collaboratively on military platforms.’

2.     Optical Bonding

Optical Bonding is a technique that give you high quality sharpness and colour. It reduces the reflection of light on the surface by 99%

What is Optical Bonding?

It’s bonding a cover glass or touch screen to an LCD cell. It eliminates air gaps by inserting an adhesive, such as silicone gel, epoxy or urethane between the cover glass and the LCD.

Before and after image

The benefits of optical bonding:

• Increased vibration and shock resistance
• Increased Contrast
• No condensation or fogging
• Zero contamination (of dust and dirt)
• Improved heat dissipation (heat can dissipate through the front glass)

Monitor Housing

At design stage there are options for robust housing to ensure the monitor can endure harsh vibration and shock.
