cDAQ-9185 As the country promotes the strategy of information technology autonomy, control and localization in all walks of life, the field of ship informatization, as an important part of Marine development, has also responded positively. When designing shipboard information system, a domestic shipbuilding enterprise needs to adopt domestic hardware and software solutions in response to the end customer’s demand for localization. In addition, the overall hardware equipment needs to have the ability to resist the impact of the Marine environment to meet the needs of the information system to obtain navigation parameters and data stably and reliably. After several rounds of communication, the company finally adopted Advantech’s RK3399 platform Arm single-board computer RSB-4710 and customized adapted Kirin system to build the onboard information system.
Key customer needs include:
1. The shipboard information system shall meet the national requirements for information security and realize the localization of key materials and software.
2. The system can obtain navigation parameters and ship data stably and reliably to ensure the safe operation of the ship.
3. The system needs to be able to withstand the long-term impact of the Marine environment, including high humidity and long-term operation in the salt spray environment.
4. The system should have good scalability and compatibility to upgrade and expand functcDAQ-9185 ions in the future.
Ii. Advantech Program
In response to customer needs, Advantech provides customers with one-stop services from hardware selection, software development to system integration. At the beginning of the project, the two sides clarified the requirements through communication and selected RSB-4710 as the core hardware platform of the shipboard information system. On the basis of this hardware, Advantech customized the Galaxy Kirin system as a software platform for customers, and carried out the development and optimization of software functions. With the assistance of Advantech, the customer successfully completed the development based on the Advantech RSB-4710 and the Kirin system, and completed the integration into the shipboard information system, passing a comprehensive system test.
Third, Advantech program advantages
1. Advantech’s domestic RK3399 3.5-inch board RSB-4710
High-performance processor: The RSB-4710 is based on the domestic chip Rui Chip RK3399 platform, equipped with high-performance ARM dual Cortex-A72 and quad Cortex-A53 processors, the main frequency of up to 1.8GHz, providing powerful computing power for the shipboard information system.cDAQ-9185
Rich interface resources: RSB-4710 is a 3.5-inch motherboard, which provides rich resources including dual HDMI/LVDS/eDP rich display interface, as well as dual GbE interface, 6 serial ports, 6 USB interface and 5 GPIO interface rich I/O interface, to meet the needs of shipboard information system for data interaction and display.
Industrial design: The RSB-4710 is designed and verified for industrial reliability and supports wide temperature operation to ensure stable operation in the ship’s complex environment.
Three anti-paint coating: Advantech can provide customers with three anti-paint coating services to support customer products in complex environments can run stably for a long time.
2. Galaxy Kirin embedded operating system
Endogenous security: The Galaxy Kirin embedded operating system inherits the security characteristics of the Galaxy Kirin universal operating system, and constructs an endogenous intrinsic security system of integrated kernel and application based on autonomous hardware and software and cryptography technology to ensure the information security of the shipboard information system.
Compatibility: Galaxy Kirin embedded Kirin system has good compatibility, can be compatible with a variety of mainstream software and hardware devices. In order to meet the use scenario of multiple peripherals of industrial computer in industrial field, Galaxy Kirin embedded operating system currently supports various types of industrial buses including serial port, Ethernet, PCI, etc.
Customized development: Advantech customized the Galaxy Kirin system for customers, and developed and optimized the software functions according to customer requirements to ensure that the system can meet the specific requirements of the shipboard information system.
