| Amplicon Launches New Embedded PC Amplicon has announced the launch of the Impact-E 52 Core 2 Duo embedded computer. The PC packs a massive punch with three times the processing power of its predecessor in the same foot-print. High-end ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) and SCADA applications are key targets for the superior processing capability of the Impact-E 52. Embedded computers are designed to provide a rugged, stable and reliable platform for applications in harsh environments or where space is limited. Many road-side and trackside cabinets contain embedded computers running the core applications of intelligent transport systems. Historically, the processing power in such systems has been low but the Impact-E 52 bucks the trend providing Core 2 Duo performance in a very small foot-print. The Impact-E 52 has dual video outputs, dual Gigabit LAN ports, dual PCI slots, 4 Serial ports and 6 USB ports. Onboard storage options include an industrial grade 2.5" hard disk drive or a solid state drive for operation in harsh environments. Compact Flash cards are also supported. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Computing News :: home page |
