We’ve been part of the open community ever since the release of our first single-board computer in 1997. Our aim is to “make embedded easy” and we succeeded, way before our competitors. We design and build reliable off-the-shelf embedded computer systems with extremely long lives and provide for free the entire schematics, drawings and the source code. In addition, we offer support for our products at no cost via various channels, including getting starting guides communities, forums for community members, high-quality manuals and also by providing the engineering department with direct access via telephone or email. We also provide community support via forums and mailing lists. Our open source philosophy has proven to be an effective way for makers, professionals as well as students to develop and design products and take them from the initial prototype to production.
HIGHLIGHTS
- Off-the-shelf embedded computers with lengthy lifecycles (10or more years)
- Simple to follow, full documentation available to all products
- Direct-to-engineer support via phone and email as well as community assistance
- Preloaded with drivers and software to speed up development and integration
- Standard with the most popular industry protocols such as USB, RJ-45, DB-9, etc.
OPEN SOURCE MINDED
We are a firm believer in the open source model that allows collaboration and deliver the highest quality final product. The product’s schematics, drawings and source code are available and are free to download. We also provide online tutorials, starting instructions, and examples of codes to unlock more possibilities.
STANDING BEHIND OUR PRODUCT
We believe strongly in and are confident in the embedded devices we offer. To prove this, we provide no-cost support from the engineers who designed the products, as well as a warranty and a longer 45-day evaluation time. If we can, we install our own products within our warehouse to automatize processes as well as evaluate their longevity and use patterns to ensure continuous improvement.
INNOVATE AND CREATE
Spend more time working on your project more and spend less time bogged in documentation. Make sure your project is up and running in a short time. Our guides to getting started as well as examples of code and preloaded tools are available to assist engineers, students and Makers reach the end in a the fastest time possible. If you need assistance We have a carefully trusted partner network that is experienced with our products and are willing to assist you.
PRELOADED OPTIMIZED SOFTWARE
Each of our integrated computers are loaded with all the popular software that you require to maximize the hardware capabilities. Most of our machines come with a complete Linux distribution, which means the most extensive selection of software accessible to you. Any drivers that are required to work with compatible peripherals are provided too. Space utilities for users to switch DIO and collect sensor data, and manage power have been added too, so that you can begin working on “Getting Blinky” in a matter of minutes after powering on your computer.
CUSTOMIZATIONS
For engineers who plan to go into the market for their products We can assist in reducing the cost of your product by providing customizations even for small production volumes. We also can collaborate with you to develop an completely custom solutions starting from scratch. While the other solutions for embedded computers keep you in the prototype stage, we’ll help your project through to completion.
