Operating in the transportation environment means these products
need to withstand extreme temperatures, variable humidity and
intense vibration, which is one reason the development team chose
to use a rugged, high performance platform from Eurotech. The
diagnostic product uses the Eurotech embedded computer to enable
fast graphics display on the easy-to-use touchscreen panel, with
real-time color graphing for greater clarity of test results and
trouble-shooting guidance. In addition, for added reliability,
Eurotech designed a comprehensive power supply and battery charging
circuit for a virtually maintenance free device.
"This customer builds sophisticated devices, running a detailed
diagnostic application, that flawlessly meets demanding
requirements and operates reliably under extreme conditions, which
is why they selected the Eurotech platform to extend their product
lifecycle," explained Greg Nicoloso,
Chief Executive Officer for Eurotech in North America.
