Field Units
By reaching into the actual battlefield or theater, BOSH can bring on-site warriors and first responders a visual review of the situation at hand. Because of the austere environment in which these customers operate, communications media options and bandwidth are generally extremely limited. These limitations require an advanced degree of compression and configuration of the video signal to allow real-time delivery of corresponding imagery viewed by the analysts and commanders. Although generally lower in image quality, the cost and complexity of this user’s requirements tend to drive higher costs for imagery transport and delivery.
