Rugged highly reliable embedded computing solutions
Over-the-air (OTA) programming is the means by which an IoT device can be updated after it’s out in the field through a wireless connection. This can be advantageous for a host of reasons, as it offers: • the ability to add new software features to a product after a device has been deployed in the… Read More »

Part 2: COMs Offer a Simple Path to Higher Functionality In my last blog, I wrote about single-board computers (SBCs), their origins, where it makes sense to use them, and even included an example of a great SBC. Here, I’ll do the same for computer-on-modules, or COMs, and highlight some of the differences between the… Read More »
