  • Overview

    Photo of woman working on aircraft engineBorn from a custom requirement for our Army Aviation partners, General Digital’s newest product family, the Alta Series, integrates robust computing power with our traditional rugged displays into an all-in-one portable workstation. One of the first products in this series is the SUDS (Secure Upload/Download System) Mobile 10.4″.

    Although equipped with embedded intelligence, the Alta SUDS (Secure Upload/Download System) Mobile 10.4″ unit is designed and programmed to function as a state machine, thereby allowing the device to be used only for loading and retrieving data from the target (e.g., the ECU of a commercial aircraft engine). This dedicated functionality has the secondary benefit of discouraging operators from using for personal activities. As with all General Digital products, the Alta series is customizable to your exact requirements, with a variety of options for computing power, display size, and more.

    Whether you need a display with or without an internal computer, General Digital has a variety of solutions at your disposal. Our team has been building smart displays and computers since our inception in 1973, providing no shortage of options and ideas to meet your specifications.
