Expertise in Defence & Security industry solutions

Impulse engineers and specialists have the industry insight and technology know-how to support and advance the Defence & Security industry.

Whether it’s computing, control or communications applications it’s difficult to imagine a more demanding environment than that faced by the Defence & Security industry. The choice and deployment of devices and solutions also has to be tempered with cost, performance and reliability considerations and the confidence of knowing that technology lifecycles can be anticipated and managed with trust and efficiency.

Working with OEMs and service companies, Impulse combines expertise with technology partnerships to offer class-leading devices and solutions for the Defence & Security industry.

Industrial products for defence applications

What we offer

Over the years we have built hundreds of computer systems for Defence and Security OEMs and System Integrators. We offer a range of custom build computers that can be entirely specified and tailored by our customers giving a perfect fit to project specifications for not only electrical and computing characteristics but also for environmental extremes. We also offer a range of data communication products and peripherals perfectly suited to this market but as no two projects are the same, talk to one of our technical sales team to find out more.

Featured Case study

Specialist computing platform for leading UAV OEM

Embedded Systems

Our customer in the Defence & Security industry required a light and small form factor box PC for guidance systems of unmanned vehicles, rugged enough to withstand shock and vibration. As the unmanned vehicles are often battery powered, low power consumption and weight were required to allow a saving in efficiency, ultimately leading to longer service time per mission.

Featured Case study

Compact embedded boards help manage high-definition imagery for UAV detection equipment

Embedded Systems

Our customer in the Defence and Security sector manufacture UAV detection equipment to identify moving targets in remote locations prone to extreme high temperatures. High definition 4k video images from these UAV detection units are streamed back to base allowing data analysts to determine whether the targets would need to be neutralised.

Featured Case study

High-quality embedded hardware powers body scanners for the Global Security market

Technology manufacturers are facing increasing pressure to improve global security systems by developing innovative solutions that address the sensitive nature of public safety.

Featured Case study

Providing cost effective interoperability between tactical radios in a military environment

Sealevel

The requirement of the project was to provide an interoperability between tactical radios in a military environment previously not achievable due to limitations of hardware and budget constraints.
