Fleet Management and In-Vehicle Solutions
Sometimes known as ‘MDT’s’ (Mobile Data Terminals), in-vehicle PCs need to be robust enough to withstand just about anything that can be thrown at them; the extremes of temperature (certainly where storage & memory are concerned) with frequent & high levels of vibration. They have to be operational via the electrical supply of the vehicle which can be unrefined regarding voltage spikes and electrical noise.
Where are they used?
A good example of in-vehicle PC use is for emergency response vehicles – police response vehicles, ambulances or fire appliance vehicles -continually on the move, travelling at high speeds often on rough roads or terrain. The environment these vehicles are operational in requires fast and ‘always-on’ connectivity, which typically will be provided via cellular connectivity – 3G, 4G – and 5G. Additionally, the vehicle PC may need to manipulate, store and send (working as Network Video Recorder) high levels of data such as video feeds during critical situations in real-time for feedback and support – and ultimately, decision making
Case Study: Mobile Data Terminal with ANPR and DVR functionality
Mobile computer system for use in emergency vehicles, providing blue light control, GPS, ANPR (automatic number plate recognition), DVR (Digital Video Recording) and communications over the 3G network.

Industrial PC Components and Peripherals
Quite often it’s the case that no matter which industrial PC solution you’re aiming to design in – or already utilise, it never quite has all the i/o that you’d ideally want.
Whether you need additional i/o around communications (multiple PoE, Canbus, GbE LAN, DIO or RS232/422/485,), Storage (multiple SATA 3, USB 3.0 or M.2) or display output (multiple HDMI, DVI-D, VGA or 18/24 bit LVDS) – we’ll have an expansion solution via mPCIe, PCIe or M.2 that’ll suit your needs.
Additionally, we can provide video capture solutions from SD through to 4K, with hardware compression or in raw data format via PCIe, PCI, M.2 and mPCIe – all ably backed up with up to date SDK’s (software development kits) to allow users to develop their own application or features at a rapid pace.
