Rockwell Collins is interested in a system that will enhance the capability of current in-flight entertainment systems. These systems provide digital video-on-demand, internet access, and video games. Our team will design a state-of-the-art digital encoding system that will convert multiple analog NTSC signals into a digitized, multiplexed transport stream. The team will demonstrate the feasibility of this system using a PC-based architecture.
