Intel and B&R: Superior performance for next generation technology
"Together with B&R's industrial PC design, the 3rd generation Intel® Core(TM) i7 processors offer performance and I/O technologies that are second to none," says Matt Langman, Director of Marketing for the Intelligent Systems Group at Intel. "These systems provide the power needed to meet the intensive processing requirements of future automation and control applications." Together with the new QM77 Express chipset, these processors currently represent the maximum performance available for industrial computers.
Integrated hardware increases graphics performance
Integrated graphics directly on the processor chip increases graphics performance and allows the DirectX 11 API programming interface to be used to display complex 2D and 3D graphics. It also provides support for audio output, pointing and input devices as well as network communication. USB 3.0 interfaces, 2 gigabit Ethernet ports, a serial interface and additional modular interfaces for communication networks such as RS-485 and CAN round off the extensive options available on the Automation PC 910.
Users can find out more about the Automation PC 910, the first system to use Intel's new Core(TM) i processors in an industrial environment, in a jointly published white paper available on the following Intel and B&R web pages: http://www.intel.com/... and http://www.br-automation.com/....
