One Stop Systems receives $1.2M order to develop Army vehicle systems
One Stop Systems received an approximately $1.2 million pre-production order from a new U.S. defense prime contractor for the design, development, and delivery of ruggedized integrated compute and visualization systems for U.S. Army combat vehicles, an award tied to vehicle situational awareness and sensor fusion modernization efforts.
The company said the order expanded its role in next-generation vision and sensor programs for the U.S. Army by integrating OSS-designed hardware into a prime contractor’s system-level solution, building on existing development activities with the Army to modernize ground vehicle situational awareness and digital sensor fusion architectures.
Under the contract, Operations Support System (OSS) described deliverables that included a GPU-accelerated video/sensor concentrator, an intelligent PCI Express (PCIe) switch, and a GPU-accelerated crew computer packaged in a SWaP-optimized, fully rugged, passively cooled embedded chassis engineered for Army ground combat environments; these units process and disseminate real-time sensor and video data to provide a 360-degree operational view and support object recognition and target identification.
The order specified prototype delivery for field testing, with OSS planning integration and testing with the prime customer following an approximately three-to-six-month period, and noted intended deployment across a range of Army vehicles, including Stryker, Bradley, Abrams, and emerging manned and optionally manned platforms; OSS also reported that its hardware had been undergoing testing at the U.S. Army Ground Vehicle Systems Center in Warren, Michigan.
“This engagement with a new, top-tier U.S. defense prime contractor marks a meaningful milestone for OSS,” said Mike Knowles, President and CEO of OSS. “We believe integrating our hardware into a prime contractor’s system solution for Army combat vehicles validates the performance, ruggedization, and technical maturity of our platforms. It also strengthens our position to compete for, and win, larger production opportunities as the Army pursues next-generation vision, sensor distribution and sensor processing technologies across its fleet of manned and unmanned platforms.” “We are proud to advance the U.S. Army’s modernization priorities for vehicle survivability and mobility. OSS systems are purpose-built for rugged edge deployments, delivering dependable, real-time situational awareness under the most demanding conditions. This new partnership helps to reinforce our growing position in defense markets. While competitors work to bring TSN-enabled systems to market, OSS has already fielded both TSN and next-generation PCIe-enabled systems. We are extending our leading position as we deploy our solutions with another major prime contractor win. We believe this underscores the advantage of our high-speed PCIe switch fabric, which delivers ultra-low-latency performance beyond what traditional fabric connections can offer, capabilities that are critical for mission-critical government applications,” said Mike Knowles.
One Stop Systems cautioned that statements in the press release that were not descriptions of historical facts were forward-looking and that actual results may differ from those statements.
