Space Shuttle control graphics software ported to Linux
Thursday, 30 June 2005
Real-time animated graphics tools used in control applications for
Hong Kong's subway system and NASA's Space Shuttle have been ported to
AMD-64 Linux. Kinesix's Sammi application development kit for Linux
includes vector graphics interface creation tools, runtimes, and
network APIs, and targets aerospace, transportation, and defense.
Kinesis says that NASA's Johnson Space Center has used the Unix
version of Sammi since 1991, in 90 percent of the graphical displays
for mission-control operations, including Space Station control and
all Space Shuttle flights.
