Advantech's ARK-5260 is compatible
with raid controllers, motion cards, frame grabbers and isolated series ports
for factory automation, facility automation, AOI (Auto Optical Inspection) and
data acquisition applications. With the addition of a motion card and a video
grabber, the ARK-5260 could form the basis for a visual inspection application,
and with the video capture card.
The comprehensive front-side I/O interface and optional accessories enable the ARK-5260 to accommodate a
variety of scenarios. The ARK-5260 supports two 2.5 inch SATA HDDs and has one 200-pin
SODIMM slot for DDR2 667MHz memory up to
2 Gbyte, five USB 2.0 compliant ports and two GigaLANs.
One VGA output, one 8-bit DIO, plus audio jacks, line-in/line-out and mic in.
Four RS-232/422/485 serial ports satisfy most industrial needs for
signal control. ARK-5260 offers plenty of I/O expansion connectors and slots
for industrial automation applications as well, such as LPT port and PS/2 connector.
Designed for harsh environments, the ruggedized system design withstands 5Grms
vibration (Compact Flash), and passed 50 G shock (Compact Flash). Outfitted
with two 2.5 inch HDDs, the system can withstand 1 Grms vibration, and passed
20 G shock with flying colors. ARK-5260 without add-on
cards can tolerate -20 to 55C (with Compact Flash), and 0 to 45C (with hard
drive).

We looked at a number of sources to determine this year's greenest cars, from KBB to automotive trade magazines to environmental organizations. These 14 cars emerged as being great at either stretching fuel or reducing carbon footprint.
Researchers at MIT and Sandia National Labs have observed a reaction in lithium-air batteries that could help improve the design of these cells for electric vehicles and other applications.
Healthcare might seem to be an unlikely target application for the Internet of Things technology, but recent developments show small ways that big-data is going to make an impact on patient care moving into the future.

A quick look into the merger of two powerhouse 3D printing OEMs and the new leader in rapid prototyping solutions, Stratasys. The industrial revolution is now led by 3D printing and engineers are given the opportunity to fully maximize their design capabilities, reduce their time-to-market and functionally test prototypes cheaper, faster and easier. Bruce Bradshaw, Director of Marketing in North America, will explore the large product offering and variety of materials that will help CAD designers articulate their product design with actual, physical prototypes. This broadcast will dive deep into technical information including application specific stories from real world customers and their experiences with 3D printing. 3D Printing is
