JHMCS II is a low cost, low integration helmet mounted display (HMD) solution designed for new aircraft installation and as an upgrade / ECP enhancement solution for aircraft already equipped with JHMCS. Both of these solutions provide visor projected color video & symbology in a well-balanced lightweight HMD and provide market leading capabilities in both day and night environments.
There are two versions of the JHMCS II product line, Digital JHMCS and JHMCS II.
For existing aircraft equipped with JHMCS classic, Digital JHMCS is an economical but significant upgrade. Using many of the existing components, and requiring no software changes, Digital JHMCS has the “all new” aspects of JHMCS II, and the benefits it brings, with the added benefit of very easy retrofit. Digital JHMCS II is a simple ‘plug and play’ upgrade solution for the over 6000 JHMCS solutions already delivered.
For New aircraft applications without JHMCS classic subsystems installed, there is the JHMCS II version (formerly called JHMCS II (H) during prototype development). JHMCS II provides a new optical-inertial tracker and replaces the JHMCS subsystems with a lightweight Aircraft Interface Unit (ACIU) which does not require cooling, a mounting tray or cockpit mapping. JHMCS II works with any aircraft and any aircraft architecture.
Both Digital JHMCS and JHMCS II share common design attributes that are new and improved over classic JHMCS. Both include new features and benefits that reinforce our market leadership standing.
