Embedded systems and mini-PCs for industry and more

Planet Computers has launched its new business unit – Planet Embedded – providing open computing system boards, embedded ARM-based systems, industrial and mini-PCs, and IoT development kits.

Developers, programmers and gamers can now access StationPC, Preneu, and Firefly products to create independent, controllable and customisable devices, including ARM computers or 4G routers. It enables the purchase of key electronic components for those liable for fixing and upgrading devices via quick and easy access to powerful mainboards and core boards.

CEO of Planet Computers, Dr Janko Mrsic-Flogel, commented: “We want to give developers, hobbyists, and system integrators easy access to powerful, high-quality electronic components that will enhance the performance of existing systems. Buying elements to build, create, repair and upgrade existing systems is now fast and simple with Planet Embedded.”

He continued: “We have experience in bringing reliable mobile devices to market with the Gemini PDA, Cosmo Communicator and Astro Slide 5G. We now want to leverage this by expanding our ecosystem beyond our powerful pocket computers. By 2025, the embedded systems market is forecast to be worth more than $116 billion, indicating a huge rise in demand for connected devices, home appliances, and IoT gateways, and we want to play a part in this.”
