Trenton – NVIDIA Military GPU Computing Webinar Recap

by Mark Lovett on August 5, 2011

A recent Trenton-NVIDIA webinar, entitled GPU Computing Systems in Military and Embedded Applications, was filled with valuable information related to the deployment of GPU technology in demanding military environments.  Hosted by Jeff Child, editor-in-chief for COTS Journal, the online event featured Devang Sachdev, NVIDIA marketing manager, and Trenton president Michael Bowling.

The world of GPU computing has been revolutionized by NVIDIA’s Tesla™ 20-series GPUs, and Trenton is enabling this massively parallel architecture for military applications such as modeling & simulation, image stabilization and radar image processing.  For example, the TCS4501 4U rackmount computer is capable of hosting up to four Tesla 20-series GPUs in a short depth, rugged aluminum enclosure, and future products will allow for up to eight Tesla GPUs in one 5U rackmount computer.

From a real-world application standpoint, Devang Sachdev highlighted the efforts of MotionDSP in the area of video enhancement and image stabilization technology as a perfect example of applying GPUs to solve difficult computational challenges.  Although time did not allow for a live demonstration of this amazing software solution during the webinar, you can watch the video below.
