From Alan Turing to Deep Blue and Watson, humans have been trying to create smarter algorithms since computers were invented. There has been much success in the field of artificial intelligence, but lately the focus has shifted from making a single, hyper-intelligent AI program to making smaller, compact devices that on their own have seemingly no intelligence, but when gathered into groups they begin to exhibit a higher intelligence. This focus of AI is called “Swarm Intelligence” or “Swarm Theory.” I will personally be keeping my eye on advances in this field, if only to prevent swarms of evil, self replicating modular robots from taking over the galaxy.
Sealevel’s R9 family of products are capable of running Windows CE 6.0 with the .NET Compact Framework 3.5. The .NET Compact Framework is a subset of the .NET Framework that has been optimized to run on embedded systems with limited resources such as the R9 family. Visual Studio provides a standard interface for debugging application code; however, there is no built-in method to aid in analyzing memory usage. This makes developing memory efficient applications a real challenge. Fortunately, Microsoft has released a set of tools that will aid in identifying and isolating problematic code and memory leaks: Power Toys for .NET Compact Framework.
Remember the popular Miller Lite commercials that promise a great tasting beer that won’t fill you up? That message resonated with consumers because it promised “everything you always wanted in a beer”. And, of course, the ads were great. COM Express designs offer a similar choice in computer systems: the technical advantages of a custom design without the high cost and long development cycle. Pretty big claim. So, how does this work? Read on.
Stop by Booth #1919 at West 2012 to see our new custom carrier boards for COM Express, which minimize the difficulty of custom computer board design by combining the processing, memory, video, Ethernet and USB functionality in a small, highly integrated module. We will also be showcasing our ACC-188 Synchronous Interface Adapter, which enables tactical radios to interface to PCs and quickly transmit IP-based data such as email, IM-type communications, files, GPS maps, images and coordinates.
Sealevel will provide advanced custom carrier boards designs for GE’s family of COM Express embedded processor modules. We will design and manufacture high performance custom carrier boards and industrial computers based on the GE Intelligent Platforms COM Express modules for GE Intelligent Platforms’ OEM customers.
Our Relio R1420 is a small, rugged embedded computer that operates without fans or other moving parts for the most reliable operation possible. Designed for harsh industrial and commercial environments, the Relio R1420 is perfect for mobile applications, embedded control and test & measurement.
