Embedded computing technologies specialist 8087 Kontron has introduced its new COM Express computer-on-module Kontron COMe-cBL6 and the mini motherboard mITX-BDU-U. Both are IoT-ready and equipped with fifth generation Intel Core SoC processors as well as Intel Celeron processors.

Kontron says both devices are suitable for environments that require multi-touch display systems or maximising limited power consumption, including surveillance and security systems, digital signage, industrial tablet PCs for logistics, retail or production markets and human-machine interfaces used in automation or medical image processing.

The COMe-cBL6 with pin-out type 6 is highly scalable and covers a wide area of requirements utilising Intel Core i7 processors to Intel Celeron processors and supports Microsoft Windows 8.1u and 7, WEI8.1, WES7 as well as Linux and VxWorks. The ultra-thin profiled mini motherboard mITX is an embedded, low powered motherboard with Intel fifth generation 14nm Core processors i7, i5, and i3 and provides a low powered platform with 15W CPUs in a 23mm envelope. The device mITX supports Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Linux operating systems.

    As IP-based technology makes its presence felt in the control room sector, it makes for greater economies of scale and also offers a migration path for many other traffic management technologies. So says Barco's Guy Van Wijmeersch. Efficient control room collaboration and decision-making is only possible if operators and decision-makers have easy and timely access to information. In many cases, that information also needs to be accessible to multiple users at the same time. This is certainly so in the case

    Today’s high-resolution cameras have many advantages if they have the right lens for the job. When that includes covering large areas or reducing cost by installing fewer cameras, you need a wide-angle lens. Fisheye style lenses with barrel distortion are routinely used to cover an ultra-wide field of view; however, they create a curved and distorted image which causes significant loss of resolution at the image edges. This presents a variety of issues for ITS applications such as difficulty in identification or recognition of objects and details.
