SSDs are the de facto option for high-performance data storage, and it’s not just because they are faster. The lack of moving parts makes SSDs more reliable as well, and they are basically considered failure-proof. But they aren’t perfect. Largely due to the rigors of industrial applications, even the best SSDs get worn out over […]

On October 30, 2026, Intel shares fell sharply after the company issued a fourth-quarter outlook well below Wall Street expectations. Coverage from Breitbart, CNBC, and Reuters pointed to the same drivers: softness in the PC market, AI-driven memory shortages raising component costs, manufacturing bottlenecks, and the temporary impact of a plant shutdown in Israel.  For […]

The massive investment in AI data centers is drawing all the attention, but the real AI revolution is happening elsewhere. When it comes to deploying AI for industrial applications, the cloud-based AI approach isn’t practical. The large amounts of data needed and the latency involved make it too slow and insecure.  That’s why the focus […]

What are wide temperature industrial computers? Wide temperature industrial computers are rugged PCs designed to operate reliably in extreme heat and cold where standard computers may experience component failure, instability, or thermal throttling. They typically use fanless passive cooling, industrial-grade components, sealed enclosures, and temperature-tested hardware to support demanding applications such as vehicle computing, food […]

MCUs or Microcontroller Units have been the norm for many embedded applications requiring specialized, efficient computing. But the industry is changing, and a simple MCU is not enough anymore.  Hybrid MCUs are the new paradigm, letting even these compact systems handle a variety of tasks themselves. But what is an MCU, and what makes one […]

Taipei, Taiwan, August 5, 2026 – Darveen, a global leader in industrial computing, today announced a strategic partnership with Global American, Inc., a pioneer in US-based embedded systems integration for over 30 years. Under this partnership, Global American will distribute Darveen’s Panel PCs and Vehicle Mount Computers across the United States.

Embedded systems are deployed at a wide variety of locations. Factories, food packing plants, warehouses, hospitals, even educational institutes. But there is another type of location that is often ignored – vehicles.  It is not always obvious, but vehicles are present on more than just roads and perform critical functions in the industry. And just like […]

Embedded systems are usually deployed and bought at scale. This improves their cost efficiency and also ensures consistency of feature set in a large project. But this poses a problem; you really have to be sure you are buying the right system before investing that amount of capital in it.  This is why choosing an embedded system for your application can be tricky. A lot of it boils […]
