Advanced Visual Docking Guidance System / A-VDGS (RLG Docking Systems, distributed by Vardhman Airport Solutions) vs LED Airfield Ground Lighting — Runway, Taxiway & Approach (ATG Airports, distributed by Vardhman Airport Solutions)
Spec comparison for two products on Aviation Souk. Both compete in Runway Lighting & Airfield Electrical.
A 3D laser-scanning docking guidance system from RLG Docking Systems (Taiwan) that tracks incoming aircraft nose position in real time and displays stopping and azimuth guidance to the flight deck — eliminating the weight and height variables that defeat simpler optical systems.
A comprehensive range of LED airfield ground lighting covering elevated and inset runway edge, centreline, TDZ, approach, threshold, and taxiway fixtures — manufactured by ATG Airports to FAA and ICAO CAT I/II/III standards, supplied and integrated across Indian and regional airports by Vardhman Airport Solutions.
