The rush to embrace smart technology in the manufacturing and logistics industries means that smart warehouse systems are an increasingly common sight in factories and warehouses. Smart conveyor belts, smart pallets, autonomous mobile robots (AMR), as well as automated handling systems such as robotic arms with integrated AI visual recognition technology are becoming widespread. The traditional paradigm of manual picking, sorting, and handling has been gradually rendered obsolete. The boost in operational efficiency has been accompanied by a reduction in dependence on human resources as well as fewer occupational injuries.

IoT applications are expanding in scope now that the technology has matured. Industrial computers that form a key part of the IoT network architecture must also continue to evolve in response to workflows and operating environments in different scenarios. The Human-Machine Interface (HMI) that serves as the bridge between users and devices requires high stability, high compatibility, and high tolerance. These attributes are essential to fulfilling system introduction goals such as improved performance and reduced costs. Industry veteran ADLINK supplies total solutions for HMI. In response to market demands, rugged display panels from AUO Display Plus have now been adopted to supply customers with HMI products that combine quality and reliability.

Advances in AIoT technologies have given rise to burgeoning smart applications in a variety of use scenarios including factories, power plants, traffic control, data centers and electric vehicles (EV). When business owners attempt to incorporate smart applications, they often face challenges and have to purchase all kinds of software and hardware systems in order to meet their needs for control, gateway and visualization capabilities. These systems add to upfront costs, occupy spaces, impose integration challenges and burden maintenance staff.

Industries such as semiconductors and panel manufacturing, which the world depends on, implement cleanrooms to prevent contaminants such as microorganisms, suspended particles, volatile chemical gases, or dust that can decrease yield rates and result in considerable losses in the production process.

Displays are the last mile for communication between human and machine. In recent years, a wave of smart digitization has taken global industries by storm, as companies in the vehicle, retail, manufacturing, and medical industries have implemented all types of equipment to meet demands in their respective fields. However, specifications of displays used in existing terminal sectors may not match backend computing equipment.

The LEC-RB5 SMARC is a high-performance module, built with the Qualcomm® QRB5165 processor, allowing on-device AI and 5G connectivity capabilities for consumer, enterprise, and industrial robots. It features a high-performance NPU, an Octa-Core (8x ARM Cortex-A77) CPU, low power consumption, and support for up to six cameras. The Qualcomm QRB5165 processor, customized for robotics applications, is designed for running complex AI, deep learning workloads, and on-device edge inference efficiently while using low power.

ADLINK EGX-MXM-A1000, EGX-MXM-A2000 and EGX-MXM-A4500 are the first modules to use NVIDIA's embedded GPUs based on NVIDIA Ampere architecture. ADLINK embedded MXM graphics modules offers high performance GPU acceleration in the compact, power-efficient MXM form factor, bringing edge computing and embedded AI to numerous vertical markets in healthcare, manufacturing, transportation, and more. Rugged design built for severe temperature extremes, shock and vibration, and corrosion in harsh conditions.

Self-driving cars have been listed as an important focus for development by global car and technology companies. The successful development of the technologies will not only depend on the sensor and recognition technologies for the vehicles, it will also require digitized systems in the surrounding environments on the road. ADLINK has been working in this area for many years. Henry Hu, Global Business Development Director, Networking Communication and Public Sector Business Unit, ADLINK, stated that besides the high quality and high performance edge computing hardware understood by the industry, the software technology has also been completed in recent years. Through the integration of hardware and software, ADLINK can provide complete solutions for system integration companies and end users.

5G has become one of the most anticipated technologies for manufacturers in the two recent years. This technology is regarded as being especially crucial for the coming era of enterprise private networks and is also considered to be a key factor for the next-generation manufacturing systems. Chia-Wei Yang, director of the IoT Solution & Technology Business Unit at ADLINK Technology, said that manufacturing systems will take on a variety of additional functions by integrating existing smart infrastructure with enterprise private networks. This will help companies reduce costs, enhance their efficiency, and increase the safety of manufacturing.

ADLINK Technology Inc, global leader in edge computing, launched the NEON-2000-JNX series, the industry's first industrial AI smart camera that integrates the new NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX module. The new camera's high performance, small form factor and ease of development open the door for innovative AI vision solutions in manufacturing, logistics, retail, service, agriculture, smart city, healthcare and life sciences, and other edge applications. The camera is an all-in-one solution, eliminating the traditional need for complex integration of the image sensor module, cables, and AI box PC.
