Introduction to Embedded Computing

Any electronic system needs some form of computing or processing capability in order to carry out it's purpose. For embedded systems, this processing capability can take the form of a Microprocessor, a Microcontroller or a complete modular solution in the form of an Embedded Single Board Computer (eSBC). eSBCs are compact, all-in-one computing platforms designed for dedicated tasks in various embedded applications. Unlike traditional desktop computers, eSBCs integrate all essential components—CPU, memory, storage, and input/output interfaces—onto a single circuit board, optimised for industrial, medical, and commercial environments. These versatile and efficient computers are built to operate in challenging conditions and are highly customisable to meet the specific needs of embedded systems. Whether it's for automation, real-time control, or edge computing, eSBCs deliver robust performance in compact form factors.

Tailored Computing Solutions for Every Application

Industrial Automation and Robotics

In the realm of industrial automation and robotics, your system needs robust components with hardware designed to withstand the harshest conditions. These systems offer high bandwidth with integrated CPU-GPU co-processing, essential for time-sensitive tasks in industrial robots. Onboard support for multiple I/O standards, including CAN bus and TSN, ensures precise machine-to-machine communication. Additionally, enhanced cutting edge cooling mechanisms ensure sustained performance in environments where reliability and high CPU computing are critical.

Embedded AIoT

eSBCs are crucial in the deployment of AIoT solutions, providing edge computing power with reduced latency for real-time analytics. Some of our solutions, such as the MIO-5377, deliver scalable AI performance through Intel’s 13th Gen Core processors, featuring up to 14 hybrid cores and an integrated AI accelerator. This ensures high computing performance while maintaining low power consumption. The AIoT solutions are enhanced by AI-native boards supporting multiple M.2 slots for AI inference acceleration and connectivity expansion, facilitating seamless integration into diverse AIoT environments. Get in touch to see how we can integrate AI at the core of your embedded system.

Ruggedised and Mission Critical Applications

For mission-critical applications, our eSBCs can be custom-built to meet your unique requirements, for example offering extended temperature operation (-40°C to 85°C), robust power input flexibility, pre-loaded with BIOS and even your software. Our MIO-2363, for example, excels in outdoor and ruggedised scenarios such as mining, transportation and military applications. It features onboard LPDDR4 memory and eMMC storage, ensuring high reliability in extreme conditions, while the ruggedised I/O design supports high ESD protection for secure data transmission.

Medical Applications

Medical and surgical systems require high reliability and precision, so you need to choose a solution which is proven to deliver. Our eSBCs, powered by Intel’s 12th and 13th Gen processors, offer advanced medical imaging capabilities through multiple 4K display outputs and medical video capture. Their surprisingly small form factor makes them ideal for integration into diagnostic and imaging devices. Additionally, the ability to operate under extreme temperatures ensures consistent performance in surgical settings, from patient monitoring systems to portable diagnostic devices.

Digital Signage for Retail and Transportation

In retail environments, embedded computing solutions provide advanced digital signage and self-service kiosks with impressive display capabilities. The MIO-5154, for instance, supports multiple displays and includes flexible I/O options to handle high-definition content with ease. It is optimised for cost-sensitive deployments while maintaining high performance, enabling reliable customer interaction in high-traffic environments. The integration of AI capabilities also allows for intelligent advertising and data analytics at the edge, improving customer engagement.
