Lockheed Martin incorpora Christie MicroTiles Led en Amaze

Christie will supply customized, low latency Led MicroTiles for systems Amaze in order to meet the demands of the F-35 program. Each system includes more than 1.300 modules to create a simulated environment 360 Highly enveloping grades for flight training.

The international aerospace and security company Lockheed Martin you have selected the solution MicroTiles Led Christie as a critical component of its Amorphic Appearance Zero-Projector Environment display system (Amaze), intended for the program F-35 Lightning II.

Christie to Supply Custom, Low Latency Led MicroTiles for Amaze Systems to Meet F-35 Program Demands. Each system includes more than 1.300 modules to create a simulated environment 360 Highly enveloping grades for flight training.

Amaze takes up less space than projector-based training systems, Its modular design allows the fields of vision to be adapted and reduces the complexity of the system. MicroTiles Led offers high performance, contrast and black levels, fundamental to simulate night environments.

“We have worked closely with the Lockheed Martin team to deliver a solution that meets their precise display performance specifications.. “Amaze offers an exceptional simulation environment and we are pleased that they have chosen MicroTiles Led as a critical component of this cutting-edge system.”, declare Michael Phipps, president and CEO of Christie.

Lockheed Martin describes Amaze as the next generation in immersive pilot training technology and is leading the training and simulation industry toward a new era of high-fidelity, low-maintenance training systems..

Amaze increases the performance of the visual system, expanding simulator training capabilities and reducing lifecycle costs compared to traditional projector-based systems used today. The system is suitable for various simulation experiences, training and immersion for the defense industry, commercial companies and academic institutions.

MicroTiles Led incorporates the flip chip technology, which increases the useful life of the LEDs by dissipating heat more efficiently, as well as common cathode technology, which reduces energy consumption, resulting in Christie's most energy-efficient design to date.

Lockheed Martin will display MicroTiles at its booth (1449) of the I/ITSEC, which will be celebrated from 2 al 6 December in Orlando (Florida).
