FAQs

 

What is an in-vehicle computer?

An in-house computer is an industrial-edge computer designed and validated to operate in a variety of intelligent transportation system (ITS) applications such as mass transportation, railway, transit, security and surveillance, and automotive. 

Through a CAN bus network, an in-house computer can provide vital analytics for efficient fleet management, including fuel temperature, engine speed, airflow, and more. With added GPS and wireless data capabilities, an in-house computer can integrate IoT devices for advanced telematics and machine-to-machine communication. 

An in-house computer features an in-built power ignition management system that allows it to control the distribution of power for continuous operation stability. For added protection and longer service life, it is built with an aluminium/steel chassis. Its rugged fanless design allows it to operate in the harshest environmental conditions, including high vibration and shock, and extreme temperatures.

 

What specific technology is built into an in-vehicle computer?

Designed to operate across a range of edge computing applications, an in-vehicle computer comes packed with a host of features to deliver mission-critical reliability while being able to operate in the harshest environmental conditions. 

Power ignition control is a key design feature that links the power supply to the engine ignition system. It allows you to control the on/off delay time setting for a proper start-up while minimising the risk of losing data during a sudden shutdown. 

Another important feature is power protection. Whether it is undervoltage and overvoltage protection, reverse polarity protection, or overcurrent protection, rest assured that your in-vehicle computer is well protected at all times. 

A rugged, fanless, and wide temperature design is also crucial. Vibrations are amongst the most common causes for a computer system to fail, while heavy oscillation can knock a cable loose or damage sensitive electronic components. 

An in-vehicle CAN bus message-based protocol lets you connect individual systems, sensors, and controllers within a network for a smooth flow of communication.

 

What are some major markets utilising in-vehicle computers?

Whether it is a railway and rolling stock, or public transportation, fleet management, autonomous navigation, intelligent transportation systems, advanced telematics, smart surveillance, and emergency first response services, in-vehicle computers can able to operate in harsh environmental conditions while delivering mission-critical reliability in autonomous and remote edge deployments.

  

How is an in-vehicle fanless computer mounted?

An in-vehicle computer is usually mounted on any available flat surface of a vehicle. Thanks to their fanless and cableless design, the installed unit's orientation does not matter. It can be mounted in or outside the vehicle and placed vertically or horizontally depending on the vehicle's cable layout. 

Convenient mounting options include placing it under the hood, in the base of the trunk, in the passenger footwell, or under the passage side seat.

 

What is a rugged vehicle computer?

A rugged computer is a specialised computer configured with high-end specifications. Unlike regular desktop computers, these in-vehicle computers can withstand harsh temperatures, extreme shock, constant vibration, dust ingress, water exposure, and other external factors. They can do so while maintaining their durability, reliability, and long-term longevity.

 

Industrial reliability & compact design for in-vehicle deployment

From storage protection and design to its compact size, an in-vehicle computer should be able to operate in the harshest environmental conditions, while being able to deliver mission-critical reliability at all times. 

A RAID 5 storage protection system allows you to minimize storage failures by splitting the data into multiple storage devices. Should there be a single device failure, you can rest easy, knowing that the system will continue to operate as normal while ensuring that your data is protected and intact. 

A fanless design ensures that the system reliability is far higher, by eliminating the risk of a mechanical point of failure. For this purpose, extruded aluminium is used with heavy-duty metal, allowing the entire unit to cool properly, while ensuring it is fully functional, even in extreme temperatures. 

A cableless design eliminates the need to worry about a defective cable or improper latching between two points. Because there is no cable clutter, it also allows for improved serviceability inside the unit. 

Space is always a limitation in a vehicle or railway. This is why the system will need to be as compact as possible. The ATC8010, with 8 PoE ports and measuring just 240(W) x 261 (D) x 100(H) mm, can control up to 8 security cameras in a mass transport application.

The MIL-STD-810G-grade ATC8010 in-vehicle computers are designed rugged to withstand specific environmental conditions, vibration, and shock.

 

Applications

Designed with the very latest Intel processing technology, in-vehicle computers feature several applications in transportation and advanced surveillance. 

In the interest of public safety, several public transportation systems use in-vehicle computers to gather data that helps improve mobile video surveillance. This is done with the aid of intelligent camera systems with object tracking systems that are linked to multiple data points. Its compact chassis and PoE capability allow greater flexibility for a custom rugged NVR deployment. 

Trucking fleet managers use GPS and signal processing capabilities of in-vehicle computers to take an informed strategic decision while planning routes and maintenance repairs, allowing them to monitor engine data in real-time through wireless communication. 

Autonomous vehicles rely on heavily specialised in-vehicle computers with computer vision technology to compute massive amounts of data. Various cameras, sensors, and radar allow let in-vehicle computers to make instantaneous and crucial decisions as they navigate through traffic. 

For mission-critical workforces such as ambulances and rescue teams, saving crucial seconds can be the difference between life or death. The VTC series of in-vehicle computers, with IoT-supported LTE connectivity, lets you instantly link up with hospital communication systems, thereby minimising life-threatening.
