Research available technologies and design a hardware, software product that enables a host computer to drive a synchro receiver, a gauge or needle in a plane cockpit using a synchro transmitter that is controlled over an ethernet protocol. This is to help military pilots get a more realistic feel in a simulated aircraft when they turn a dial or knob. We need the host computer to be able to transfer/receive through a RJ45 Ethernet Cable. The transferred information will be to tell the receiver Synchro to turn a dial or a knob to an accurate told position. The receiving information will be to tell the host computer that the receiver Synchro has turned to the correct position. Shown in the figure below is the full system, and everything in the blue box is what we are developing, the Transceiver Synchro.
