Raspberry Pi started as a barebones computer for enthusiasts and educators but has since evolved into something much more. The rise of the Internet of Things has created a demand for small, customized computers, and Raspberry Pi has pivoted to supply this need. Let’s take a look at Raspberry Pi’s Compute Module 5 and what […]

The paradigm of industrial computing has largely shifted from Cloud computing to Edge computing, but the rise of AI poses a new challenge. AI applications require powerful GPUs for their number crunching, while embedded PCs normally rely on integrated graphics alone to keep things efficient. To meet this need, Cincoze has come out with two […]

The rising tensions between the USA and China have raised the specter of another chip crisis like the one that followed the global pandemic. But will the fallout really be that dire? How much, if at all, will semiconductors be affected? Let’s take a look. A Tit for Tat The whole fracas started when the […]

Embedded PCs rarely work with the one-size-fits-all approach. Different applications have very different requirements, and without a process that can quickly roll out customized boards, putting together an industrial-scale setup can take ages.   That’s why Global American is partnering with Cincoze, the leading manufacturer of modular embedded systems. Let’s find out what makes Cincoze computers […]

Chances are that your business still uses computers with legacy components – ie. old, superseded technologies that nevertheless still get the job done. How do you deal with legacy systems without negatively impacting your operations?  What Exactly is a “Legacy” Component? Computer technology evolves at a breakneck pace. Standards that are cutting edge right now […]

Gone are the days when a strong firewall was all you needed to ensure your industrial systems and servers remained safe. Security programs have grown more robust over the years, forcing hackers to use more sophisticated approaches. But this also means that security measures must evolve further as well, going further than simply firewalls and […]

When investing in industrial PCs, you want to ensure that your investment would last you for a while. But which parameter decides that – the product’s lifespan, or its lifecycle? Lifespan – A Measure of Durability  The lifespan of an embedded computer (any electronic device, really) refers to the expected operating duration of the product, […]

AI has finally reached the point where it is no longer just a buzzword but rather a practical technology you can use to give your business an edge. But how exactly do you get started with AI? What is involved in deploying AI solutions in your application? What is the Use of AI? Before we […]
