Fujitsu MB86298 Ruby
Designed by Fujitsu in response to the demands of autmotive industry, and an excellent choice for aeropace & defense manufactures, the Ruby is a discrete GPU that can process up to 4 input video streams while simultaneously outputting video to 4 displays. The input videos can be modified, synthesized together, and put on 3D graphics surfaces within a single screen. In addition, the controller’s industry-leading capabilities enable the display of 8 layers and inter-layer blends. Each information stream is processed separately so users can selectively change the information screen to be displayed as well synthesize the information streams together smoothly and display them.
