Choosing the appropriate Computer-on-Module standard Performance class is your guide

Unless developers are true embedded and edge computing experts, evaluating and choosing between the different form factor standards can be pretty hard. Yet depending on the performance class, there is only one standard that is recommended for new system designs. As always, there are exceptions to this rule.

Smart Camera, AI and Robotics Software Resources for QUALCOMM System on Chip Platforms

QUALCOMM’s IOT roadmap offers a range of powerful and highly integrated system on chip devices for a broad set of IOT use cases and applications. These SoCs incorporate several subsystems into a single device from 5G and LTE cellular modem, multi-core CPU (up to 8 cores), GPU and AI capable DSPs to dual high-resolution camera ISP, sensor, audio and security subsystems. In order to enable customers to realise innovative computer vision, AI and Robotics products quickly, a comprehensive suite of robust software development kits and libraries are needed. This article will focus on the software resources available for QUALCOMM’s SOC roadmap.

Boundless freedom for edge servers

The integration of Intel Xeon D processors on COM-HPC Server-on-Modules allows edge server installations to break free from the tight thermal constraints of air-conditioned server rooms. For the first time, they can now be installed anywhere where massive data throughput with lowest possible latencies is required – all the way to deterministic real time.

Great potential of HARTING Han-Modular® Domino

In today’s industry, especially in the areas undergoing automation, there is an increasing need to provide machines with not only power supply and control signals but also communication lines. It does not, however, change the main requirement for industrial connectors, which is that they are expected to provide high IP-rated and mechanically durable connection while still maintaining a compact size. Modular connectors are commonly used for that exact purpose, thanks to which sockets and plugs strictly adapted for the application can be constructed. This area is also subject to the constant evolution. Excellent examples of that evolution are new solutions from HARTING: the Han Modular series of modules.

Heterogeneous core technology for multifunctional embedded client systems

Computer-on-Modules with 12th generation Intel Core processors (formerly codenamed Alder Lake) deliver tremendous performance scalability with their 4 to 16 cores and 8 to 24 threads. Their hybrid architecture, with Performance- and Efficient-cores, suits a wide range of applications, from industrial workstations to workload consolidation in IoT-connected machines and systems. To ensure high cybersecurity, the IIoT gateway functions are implemented in real-time capable virtual machines instead of containers. Meanwhile, these new Computer-on-Modules also solve many of the procurement problems OEMs face for their existing products.
