VAPS XT is the logical evolution of HMI development.  Built on years of industry expertise and developed through close consultation with top avionics and automotive manufacturers. VAPS XT is a next-generation solution for data display, simulation applications, and the development of embedded systems. The new XT 661 module allows you to specify and design any cockpit display system that requires compliance with the new ARINC 661 aviation standard.

VAPS XT is ideal for the design of cockpit displays and for automotive applications ranging from digital and analog instrumentation to next-generation display concepts.  With its open and extensible architecture, VAPS XT offers an unparalleled level of control and flexibility in the design of dynamic interactive real-time HMIs for next generation aircraft and automobiles. 

VAPS XT Designer
VAPS XT Designer is an entry-level VAPS XT package targeted for the rapid prototyping, designing, and specification of HMIs in an interpreted runtime environment on a workstation.  VAPS XT Designer is ideal for prototyping applications requiring high quality photo-realistic graphics, such as cockpit avionics and other complex HMI displays.
VAPS XT is an integrated development environment that allows you to

• Define HMI appearance and behavior by drawing or importing graphics or using pre-defined objects from the Object Library,
• Perform data connection between input and output objects,
• Define HMI logic and dataflow by creating UML-based state charts,
• Perform rapid and iterative testing of HMI applications.

VAPS XT Developer
VAPS XT Developer contains all of the functionality of VAPS XT Designer as well as automatic code generation capabilities using CODE nGEN. 
VAPS XT Developer is primarily oriented for the rapid prototyping, designing, specification, and deployment of HMIs on a PC workstation in both simulation and embedded development environments. Ideal for any applications requiring high performance and high quality graphics, such as cockpit avionics, VAPS XT Developer is especially suited for applications that will be retargeted to real-time, embedded target systems. 
CODE nGEN allows you to rapidly produce executables that have been optimized for minimal memory footprint, minimal initialization time, and maximum screen refresh frequency. CODE nGEN applications have been ported to several types of hardware platforms (processor and graphics library), as well as to COTS and proprietary Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS).
VAPS XT Developer includes all of the components of VAPS XT Designer plus the following functionality:

• CODE nGEN to produce VAPS XT application executables,
• CODE nGEN compiled libraries for development platform.

VAPS XT Rehost
VAPS XT Rehost is a complete deployment tool that contains all of the capabilities of VAPS XT Developer as well as source code libraries, sample code, and utilities that facilitate the retargeting of VAPS XT HMIs to a variety of real-time embedded systems. Due to the optimizations provided by CODE nGEN, the VAPS XT Rehost Toolkit is ideal for the development of executables deployed within embedded systems with reduced memory capabilities.
The VAPS XT Rehost Toolkit provides all the components of VAPS XT Developer plus the following functionality:

• CODE nGEN sources for retargeting HMI applications to real-time, embedded systems,
• Automatic sample compilation and linking of make file, sample main program, ported VAPS XT libraries, and generated code for producing a stand-alone and portable application executable.
