Client Testimonials
Howell Instruments
Industrial leaders Howel Instruments Inc have been pioneers in developing accurate cockpit digital instruments since 1951. The leading engine design company has been offering solutions to enhance the safety and performance of military and commercial aircraft cockpit engine instrumentation.
Howell strives for quality through innovative domestic and international equipment, offering a diverse range of products that range from airborne engine monitoring systems to portable test sets and engine trimmers.
The U.S. Army chose Howell to develop the H5900H-60 Advanced Engine Instrumentation (AEI) for the Black Hawk Helicopter seeking an advanced, intuitive, and unique instrument upgrade.
Howell chose DiSTI, the leading provider of transformative HMI software development tool, GL Studio®, to implement the particular software and display visuals necessary for this complex system.
GL Studio® is DiSTI’s essential software product for developing real-time 3D human-to-machine interfaces for computer-based training, maintenance, and cockpit displays. The partnership between Howell Instruments and DiSTI’s GL Studio® is critical in transforming the future of flight crew safety through innovative engine instrumentation systems designed to equip pilots with critical situational awareness and immediate flight performance data.
Empowered with GL Studio® Safety-Critical Embedded Code (SCEC++) to create the enhanced visual display systems of the cockpit, Howell was able to develop the AEI patented design for the UH-60 Black Hawk.
GL Studio®’s unique features, such as high fidelity output, aesthetically pleasing graphics, and real-time playback performance, assisted Howell in creating a system for military personnel with the best resources and possible outcomes.
GL Studio® was the main component to combine the aircraft’s essential piloting features seamlessly. The AEI has a compact memory footprint for seamless portability, increased pilot efficiency, and unbeatable reaction performance.
DiSTI’s GL Studio® embodies powerful and intuitive object-oriented interface design tools that empower programmers from any industry to create reusable 2D or 3D graphical user interfaces for simulation and safety-critical applications.
The partnership between Howell Instruments’ AEI and DiSTI’s GL Studio® enabled U.S. Army to utilize the UH-60 Black Hawk in accomplishing various missions, saving lives, and advancing into modern warfare.
