    JUNE 15--Lockheed Martin (Bethesda, MD) has selected the VMETRO (Houston, TX, and Oslo, Norway; www.vmetro.com) Modular Data Recorder (MDR) to aid in testing the Hawkeye Target Sight System (TSS) for the "Cobra" attack helicopter update program. The TSS is an advanced electro-optic, infrared sensor system designed to provide target detection, recognition, and identification at extremely long ranges during day or night operations and in challenging environments. VMETRO's MDR was selected to be part of TSS tests primarily because of its rugged construction, ability to sustain high-bandwidth data recording, and ease with which it could be integrated into the system.

    VMETRO provides board- and system-level products for high-performance embedded real-time systems, with products based on open standards such as VMEbus, PCI, RACEway, and Fibre Channel. Founded in 1986 in Oslo, Norway, and in the USA since 1987, VMETRO is a manufacturer of bus analyzers for standard buses such as VMEbus and PCI. VMETRO also offers an extensive line of high-performance real-time data recorders, PMC I/O controllers, and modules for data acquisition and real-time data networking.
