It provides data access and control on the edge of the cloud, to capture and deliver data from connected devices, sensors and systems to the wider enterprise for further analysis and action. The Helios is ideally suited to Fleet Management, Wireless Telemetry, Public Safety or Data concentrator based applications
The Eurotech Helios platform can be equipped with the Eurotech ESF middleware to offer the industry’s first easily programmable edge controller system. With ESF, OEMs have a Java-based middleware framework as a starting point for their application coding, leading to faster time to market and ultimately, future-proofing and greater market success.
“Combining our configurable hardware platform, Helios, with the ESF middleware gives Eurotech customers the greatest range of flexibility, in I/O options, connectivity choices, and object-oriented programming,” comments Arlen Nipper, President and CTO at Eurotech, Inc. “The Helios platform is the next step in our product progression, and gives our customers the ability to go to market quickly with proven embedded hardware and software technology in a truly application-ready and programmable package.”
“With the Helios platform, Eurotech launches a packaged device that makes it easy for OEMs to select Intel-based architectures for applications that are part of the 15 billion connected devices Intel sees in the near future,” said Joe Jensen, general manager, Embedded and Computing Division, Intel. “With software and hardware configurability, Eurotech offers leading Intel technology to give OEMs a high degree of flexibility to deliver medical, transportation, or industrial applications to precisely meet their users’ needs.”
