What is an In-Vehicle Computer?
The In-Vehicle PCs have to be designed for wide temperature operation, continuous vibration, shock and to cooperate with the vehicle voltages. Unlike the laptop/ tablet, being able to start and stop the Vehicle PC from the ignition is an obvious requirement. Managing an orderly shutdown before the vehicle’s battery is drained to a degree which threatens its ability to start the engine also needs to be part of the specification of a Vehicle PC. Laptops/tablets will not be designed to the same criteria and would therefore drain the vehicle battery. Advanced Vehicle PCs will also offer the capability to manage the power to other peripherals, for example, turning on and off the modem, printers or cameras.
Our In vehicle Solutions are designed to work for a number of different applications including, but not limited to:
- Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR).
- Computer Aided Dispatch Systems (CAD).
- Mobile Video and Traffic Enforcement Systems.
- Automatic Vehicle Location Systems (AVL).
- Remote Database Access Systems.
- Light bar / Siren Controlling Applications.
- Mobile Internet Access.
