Vehicle PC operates in extreme temperatures
American Industrial Systems
HMI Vehicle PC
American Industrial Systems (AIS) has introduced a 12.1in rugged vehicle computer designed to reliably operate in strong vibration, extreme temperatures, and dusty and harsh environmental conditions.
The HMI Vehicle PC features a built-in UPS battery back-up system, capable of sustaining the unit for up to 30 minutes in the event of loss of power.
This is ideal for delayed system shutdown for data transmission, mission-critical applications and logging applications.
A 1,000 nit high-brightness LCD display provides sharp, crisp images in direct sunlight, for superior indoor and outdoor performance.
The ultra-rugged vehicle display is available commercially off the shelf (COTS), enabling immediate deployment and reduced time to market.
A rugged aluminum-alloy housing protects the internal components, meeting Military Standard 810F specs for anti-shock and vibration requirements.
The front bezel is sealed to IP65-compliant water and dustproof standards.
Powering the rugged computer is a high-performance fanless Intel Celeron M processor and GM45 chipset, designed for a long product life cycle and reliable operation in industrial conditions.
The ruggedised system is capable of withstanding -10 to 55C operating temperatures and is compliant with Military 810F standards for anti-shock, vibration and drop; providing a robust vehicle-mounted system in extreme environments.
Staying connected is simple with built-in dual gigabit Ethernet, 802.11b/g/n wireless support and a range of I/O connections on the rear for external peripherals.
AIS' vehicle computer system accepts a voltage input range of 9 to 28V for easy deployment into a variety of transportation vehicles.
AIS' commercially available touchscreen vehicle computer provides a cost-effective, long-life-cycle system for logistics, warehousing, vehicles, transportation, and industrial industries where performance and reliability are paramount.
