4.8 - Bus Extensions

With the growing demand for networked production, real-time data processing and decentralised intelligence in industrial environments, the requirements for embedded computers have changed significantly in recent years. Today, it is not just computing power that counts – energy efficiency, communication diversity and the ability to integrate into AI-supported processes are also key factors. The new Nuvo-11000 IPC series addresses precisely these requirements, positioning itself as a robust and scalable platform for industrial edge computing applications. All variants of the new series are now available with individual configurations from the German distributor Acceed.

Industrial automation has been undergoing change for some time now. While previous production systems relied on classic PLC and IPC architectures, the era of Industry 5.0 increasingly demands modular, AI-enabled platforms that not only perform control tasks but also enable data-intensive analyses and machine learning. With the Nuvo-10000GC, German distributor Acceed is introducing a new generation of industrial computer systems that meet precisely these requirements for edge AI applications – compact, powerful, expandable and robust.

Decentralised data processing plays an important role in the ongoing growth of digitalisation and automation in industry. Edge computing is becoming a key technological consideration, particularly when low latency, minimal downtime and high security standards are required. At the same time, there is a growing demand for high-performance artificial intelligence (AI) directly on the production line – without having to go via the cloud. This is exactly where the new NRU-170PPC panel PC from German distributor Acceed comes in: an industrial AI edge computer with an integrated screen that is designed for continuous operation under demanding conditions and sets new standards in computing power, robustness and system integration.

Resilient, fanless, GPU-accelerated: these are the requirements for AI-focused computers on the production line, in development, in the field and under extreme conditions. Or deep learning, object recognition and video analysis brought directly to the road, robust, compact and independent of the cloud. To meet these challenges, the new SEMIL-2000GC combines the uncompromising robustness of a fully enclosed IP67 industrial system with the computing power of the latest Nvidia RTX GPUs – ideal for demanding applications in the fields of autonomous driving, industrial image processing, mobile robotics, smart cities, surveillance or edge AI in IIoT. Certified according to EN 50155, the controller can also be used in rail vehicles and in an extended temperature range from -40 to +70 °C.

Acceed is expanding its range of industrial box controllers with the fanless compact computer POC-764VR, which has been specially developed for video analysis and object recognition. In addition to the robust design tailored to industrial applications, the new controller impresses with its reliable high computing power and offers HD image recording, real-time detection and data analysis with support for various sensors. The possibility of remote access improves safety and efficiency and reduces operating costs.
