Platform Protection
Real-time processing and deterministic networking for vehicle protection systems
&w=1920&q=75)
Modern combat vehicles face incoming anti-tank missiles, uncrewed aerial systems, and rocket-propelled munitions. Neutralising these kinetic threats with Active Protection Systems (APS) requires instantaneous multi-sensor processing, rapid trajectory calculation, and deterministic countermeasure release with zero tolerance for network lag or dropped packets.
Concurrent designs and manufactures rugged 3U VPX computing platforms that integrate high-performance Intel® processing, GPU-accelerated AI, and Time Sensitive Networking (TSN).
Our scalable, SOSA® aligned vehicle architectures provide a deterministic, field-proven computing foundation that de-risks vehicle survivability integration for both programme managers and vetronics engineers.

Built for deterministic, real-time performance
Active Protection Systems and vehicle survivability suites depend on the ability to ingest raw radar and optical data, process it in microseconds, and move mission-critical firing commands between subsystems with guaranteed, bounded latency.
Our rugged systems and architectures enable:
Real-time multi-sensor processing at the edge across radar, optical, infrared, and acoustic shot detection
GPU-accelerated AI threat classification to distinguish incoming threats from battlefield clutter rapidly
Deterministic communications via Time Sensitive Networking (TSN), eliminating packet collisions and latency spikes
High-performance computing for trajectory estimation and precision countermeasure fire control
Ultra-low latency data exchange across copper and optical vehicle databuses
Scalable, SOSA® aligned 3U VPX architectures that support multi-payload expansion within a single enclosure

Condor AGX-IOX
A rugged 3U VPX high-performance single board computer (SBC) designed for both autonomous and embedded edge computing systems completing instantaneous data analysis and transfer, multi-sensor processing, encode/decode, and AI Inferencing. The Condor AGX-IOX is designed with the NVIDIA® Jetson AGX Orin™ SoM(Industrial) supporting an NVIDIA Ampere GPU and the Arm® Cortex®-A78AE CPU. This product supports 64GB LPDDR5 system memory allowing up to 205 GB/s memory bandwidth shared between the ARM Cortex CPUs, NVIDIA Ampere GPU, and Accelerator Engines.
A deterministic architecture for Platform Protection
Configured with TR K9 RC, Condor AGX-IOX, and Hermod II, the Cronos system provides a rugged, 7-slot 3U VPX architecture combining intensive mission compute, edge AI sensor fusion, and deterministic networking.
The TR K9 RC Single Board Computer delivers I/O-intensive Intel® Core™ processing power to execute ballistic tracking models and defensive fire control logic. The Condor AGX-IOX provides dedicated GPU acceleration to ingest high-rate optical and radar feeds, classifying and tracking incoming projectiles in real time. Connecting these cards is Hermod II, a rugged 1G/10G Ethernet switch featuring Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) standards to guarantee deterministic, microsecond-level data delivery between sensors, processors, and countermeasure launchers.
Housed inside the heavy-duty, conduction-cooled Cronos chassis, this architecture provides a survivable, scalable computing engine designed to meet the extreme shock, vibration, and thermal demands of tracked and wheeled armoured vehicles.
