Description
The XSR HD Video Recorder captures 8 simultaneous HD video channels — 3G-SDI and HD-SDI inputs plus 8 SD and 8 audio channels — while recording, playing back and streaming concurrently. An Intel Xeon Gen 11 processor with 96 GB DDR4 drives per-channel H.265 or H.264 encoding, or lossless uncompressed, selectable per channel. Up to 80 TB MLC SSD storage in RAID 0, 1 or 5 — including the XSR Removable Data Module — combined with GPS/NTP time-stamped video, MIL-STD-810 and DO-160 environmental qualification and CSfC-compatible XTS-AES 256-bit dual-layer encryption delivers a mission-critical HD recording solution for demanding airborne ISR and UAV platforms.
Advantage
Eight HD channels record, play and stream simultaneously from a single Size, Weight and Power-optimized platform. Per-channel codec selection, removable encrypted SSD and DO-160 qualification cover the full airborne ISR mission from sensor to debrief.
Airborne ISR
Multi-channel HD video capture from EO/IR and wide-area motion imagery sensors, recording all channels simultaneously at full resolution for real-time and post-mission exploitation.
UAV payload recording
Compact, low-power HD recording across multiple camera channels on unmanned airframes, with per-channel codec selection and SWaP-optimized chassis options for size-constrained payloads.
Mission debrief and exploitation
Simultaneous playback and streaming of recorded HD video enables rapid post-mission analysis without waiting for file transfer, reducing warfighter debrief cycle time.
