Vehicle Manufacturers
The high performance and functionality of our in-vehicle computers makes them an ideal platform for vehicle manufacturers.
Data Gathering
Our PCs are being used in a number of applications to assist car manufacturers with development of new models, by recording large amounts of data from the vehicle’s CAN network during extended road testing. This information, including detailed engine diagnostic and technical data, can be recorded by the PC, either for analysis at a later date, or in real-time if engineers remotely access the PC via 3G internet connectivity. A variety of other input devices can also be connected to the in-vehicle PCs (e.g. USB & COM), enabling the recording of various types of data.
This ability to gather a wide range and vast amount of data means that manufacturers are able to verify whether or not vehicles perform as expected, thus enabling the detection of problems and assisting engineers to earlier analyse and rectify them. We understand the importance of quality assurance and quality control, and our in-vehicle PCs are an ideal medium for these types of applications. With our high-performance in-vehicle PC systems, such as the C2 series with Intel Core i3/i5/i7 processors, vehicle manufacturers can be certain that the computers will be able to meet the most demanding set of requirements.
OEM Entertainment
In addition to data recording, our in-vehicle PC systems can provide the functionality required of an OEM multimedia entertainment system. With multiple-display support there are several possible configurations for this type of system. One example is where driver navigation can be used in the front of the vehicle, whilst rear-seat entertainment, such as DVDs, music, etc, is simultaneously provided. The versatility of our computers enable vehicle manufacturers to reduce their long-term hardware costs and provide more convenience to their customers.
Specialist Commercial Vehicle Manufacturers
In addition to our PCs being an ideal platform to facilitate data gathering operations and OEM entertainment systems for car manufacturers, their flexibility also makes them highly suited to specialist commercial vehicles (e.g. lorries, trucks and vans). By offering our in-vehicle PCs as factory-fitted options, commercial vehicle manufacturers can provide their fleet customers with a wide range of features, such as 3G mobile data technology, GPS tracking, advanced inventory control, job despatch systems, and much more.
