AIS releases embedded panel PC using Intel Atom Cedar Trail processor

IRVINE, USA: American Industrial Systems Inc. (AIS) is an ISO 9001:2008 certified supplier and manufacturer of a line of Intel Dual Core Cedar Trail Panel PCs which are designed to increase performance, provide real-time connectivity and interactive touch screen functionality for industrial automation and process control industries.

The AIS industrial embedded touch panel PCs provide a easy-to-use user interface, color TFT display and HMI interactivity which improves operator productivity by enabling effective visualization of plant operations and efficient controls.

To minimize human machine interface development efforts, designers want to develop for scalable systems that can be easily upgraded as performance expectations increase. The plant managers and control engineers are looking for architecture that can enable low cost, small form factor configurations with a minimum number of components.

Responding to these escalating requirements, AIS' recently released next generation Cedar Trail Intel Atom processor based platforms offer improved performance and lower power consumption along with improved graphics utilizing a dedicated media engine and enhanced display options. The AIS rugged embedded panel PCs are powered with high performance 2.13 GHz D2700 embedded Intel Atom dual-core processor.

AIS´ commercial off the shelf (COTS) predesigned operator terminals provide a cost effective control interface which can be easily integrated into new and existing installations reducing the time to market; meeting the demands of modern users where service, availability, reliability, and technology are paramount.
