What are Integrated Aircraft Avionics?
To pilot: all coordinated information is available from a single source
To software engineer: full access to shared data about situation, mission, and systems
To hardware designer: systems as a single unit with ample bandwidth to support processing

Where We Are Going
Mitigation/elimination of radiation and electromagnetic effects on avionics
Slowing semiconductor wear out in devices More progressive form of flight planning Greater integration of in-flight data with ground
systems Projects worked on by: Boeing, Honeywell, Smith’s
Aerospace, and Goodrich Aerospace as well as others.
