What is an Embedded Computer?
An embedded computer, also known as an embedded PC, is a computer system that is implemented into a larger system or intelligence system commonly used for data collection or modern interaction tasks. These systems collect and process data from sensors to the IoT networks and provide real-time reactions to support the device and system. Embedded computers come in various shapes and sizes fit for industrial or military applications. Embedded computers are used in many industries in the world. Most industries required high-performance computers that can integrate into the existing device easily. Moreover, embedded computers play an important role in the Internet of Things (IoT). There are several benefits of using an embedded computer in a larger device or system. Embedded computers offer a number of important advantages over regular consumer PC. With the low maintenance feature, the embedded computer itself provides reliability inside complex systems. Industrial-embedded computers are designed with a fanless enclosure and a passive cooling system to help the system remain sealed while reducing heat. The removal of the fan decreases failure rates, reduces noise, and provides space for integrated components. Furthermore, much of the environmental damage comes from exposure to dust, water, and vibration; therefore stronger protection such as metal steel or IP-rated housing can reduce these environmental damages. Acnodes fanless industrial pcs feature high-performance processors with a fanless cooling system and rugged construction for harsh environments such as factories and manufacturing industries. All of the fanless industrial computers are reliable, customizable, and tailored for Industry 4.0. Designed for industrial applications and IoT devices, these fanless embedded PCs have increased reliability, extended MTBF, and reduced maintenance to help maximize performance.
Internet of Things (IoT) of Gateway Platforms Solution
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a big collection of smart sensors, networks, servers, and services that interact with them. To leverage the current internet infrastructure, an intelligent IoT gateway is developed for the purpose of connecting legacy and new equipment, to get the data from them, and in return to control them intelligently based on the instructions or analytical results from the connected servers. Designed to connect to sensor networks, IoT gateway platforms emphasize on providing flexible connections between sensor nodes and customer’s cloud for enabling intelligent big data analysis and data-driven decision-making. The IoT gateway platforms can be flexibly configured with different protocol-ready modules to communicate with end sensors or I/O nodes. Features with field bus control interface, as well as superior WiFi/LTE/3G, enabled edge device/cloud connectivity. Secure, scalable computing gateways with field bus interfaces enable seamless connection, aggregation, filtering, and data transmission to the cloud with confidence.
The Internet of Things – ISF and the Intelligent Systems to Systems
The Intelligent Systems Framework (ISF) is a set of interoperable solutions designed to address connecting, managing, and securing devices in a consistent and scalable manner. What are the benefits of using the framework? Processing connected devices involve the use of proprietary components from a variety of manufacturers. However, this can over-miss the security and manageability feature needed to protect and manage the network of devices connected to each other and the cloud that is generating massive amounts of data. The approach can be time-consuming, costly, and create IP issues. By using the framework, the hardware and software integration is done for the customer, saving valuable time. Customers will be able to build their systems faster, develop new services, and extract value from the data collected with the end customer in mind.
