Elma Electronic builds thousands of highly rugged computing platforms for use in the harshest environmental conditions. SWaP-optimized for tight spaces with innovative designs. Our in-house testing ensures the best quality - we test our products in-house for thermal, shock and vibration.

CLEAR FOR TAKEOFF
Hypersonic missiles are exposed to shock, vibration, heat, and thermal shock, which requires designing hardened guidance and navigation technologies.
UNMANNED DESIGN TRENDS
The 81-pound Blackjack is eight feet long with a 16-foot wingspan, and is designed to carry multi-sensor payloads in a large pod below its nose.
Sponsors include the Navy, Marine Corps, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA); and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Awards are in three tiers -- ranging from platinum, the highest, to the gold awards, and finally to the silver awards.
Greater processing power, advanced filtering, and better signal rejection are among the digital signal processing enabling technologies for electronic warfare projects today.
UNMANNED BUSINESS
AN/SPQ-9B X-band pulse-Doppler radar defends against low flying cruise missiles, slow-flying aircraft, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and helicopters.
Zenith AeroTech has delivered two Quad 8 tethered UAVs to a federal law enforcement agency for command overwatch during emergency response missions.
HAAWC enables the Raytheon MK 54 torpedo carried aboard the Navy Boeing P-8A Poseidon jet to glide through the air from as high as 30,000 feet.
With efficiencies to 98 percent, lower power losses enable the products to operate in temperatures from -40 to 110 degrees Celsius case temperatures.
UNMANNED PRODUCTS
All Optimom 2M models are powered by Teledyne e2v's 2-megapixel low-noise global shutter image sensor that provides sharp images of fast-moving objects.
The MDX is a man-portable sensor package that uses 3D radar combined with medium-wave infrared (MWIR) and visible-light electro-optical cameras.
These midwave infrared cameras have integrated continuous-zoom lenses, and are for SWaP-constrained applications that require long-range imaging.
The SRMH-13.3U 13.3-inch liquid crystal display (LCD) monitor is for use in direct bright sunlight, or in other high-ambient-light conditions.
