VNX+ Edge AI at Embedded World 2026
When edge AI needs to be a system - Maximum integration flexibility in a minimal footprint! At embedded world 2026, we demonstrate how VNX+ enables powerful computing exactly where it is needed: directly with the operator in the field. Visit our live demo at Hall 3 | Booth 470 and see what a lightweight mission setup in action can look like. A drone above the operator provides aerial awareness, while a compact system processes multiple sensor inputs in real time – including video, thermal imaging and short-range radar. The platform integrates satellite navigation, communication with the command center, augmented-reality support and even real-time translation. The result: a compact architecture including integrated wearable subsystems that can support police, security forces and disaster-response teams – while remaining flexible enough to integrate a wide range of sensors and interfaces. Why VNX+? SOSA-aligned architecture based on VITA 90, passively cooled for harsh environments and built on a European supply chain. Maximum integration flexibility in a minimal footprint.
Open VPX | VPX Products | Elma Electronic
Elma is a key contributor to several of the VITA Standards Organization's Working Groups, driving innovation in open systems standards. Our expertise in technical standards and global defense programs has resulted in a robust portfolio of products based on OpenVPX and the SOSA® Technical Standard, both rooted in VITA standards.
Collaborating with long-term partners, we design, develop, and deploy proven solutions for the most demanding defense applications.
VITA 46 | Open VPX Backplanes | Open VPX
The VITA Standards Organization (VSO), an ANSI-accredited group, supports the development of open standards like the VPX family. VITA 46 is the base standard that defines VPX. As part of the VPX family, OpenVPX, or VITA 65, provides a framework for system-level interoperability, defining integration points from modules to backplanes and chassis.
Does anyone use Geographical Addressing? Elma TIPS for VPX System Integration
VITA 65 requires that VPX backplane profiles comply with GA Field assignments and function as defined in VITA 46. There are six pins in the VPX J0 connector associated with this: GA[4:0]* and GAP. Backplanes are required to either tie each to ground with a maximum resistance of 1.0 Ohm or left open. GA0* is the least significant bit, GA4* is the most significant bit, and GAP* is a parity bit as the sum of the number of grounded GA pins needs to be odd.

SOSA architecture
The SOSA architecture (Sensor Open Systems Architecture) defines a modular, open-systems framework to standardize embedded computing for defense and aerospace. It emphasizes interoperable hardware, scalable I/O, and technology agility so systems can evolve without a full redesign. Elma Electronic supports this framework with SOSA-aligned VPX systems, backplanes, and enclosures — enabling defense integrators to reduce lifecycle cost, accelerate integration, and future-proof their platforms for evolving mission needs.
