The Rugged Edge Media Hub

Is the most powerful processor always the best choice for industrial edge computing?

In this episode of Premio's Talk Rugged podcast, we explore why right-sizing edge computing matters and how to balance processing performance, connectivity, ruggedness, and system integration.

Featuring Premio's CT-DAS Series of 3.5-inch industrial single-board computers, the discussion covers efficient Intel® N-Series computing, industrial connectivity, real-world CNC machine applications, and different integration options—from board-level solutions to fanless mini computers and industrial Panel PCs.

Discover why choosing the right hardware isn't about maximizing specifications, but finding the best fit for your application.

Built Rugged. Built Ready.

How is vehicle computing evolving from basic telematics to real-time AI and autonomous operation?

In this video, we break down the shift from traditional in-vehicle computing to in-vehicle AI, explain why edge processing matters, and introduce Premio’s four levels of in-vehicle AI—from basic AI telematics and smart fleet intelligence to advanced vehicle perception and autonomous systems.

You’ll also learn about three compute architecture approaches for in-vehicle AI:

• x86 computing
• NVIDIA Jetson-based edge AI
• x86 + discrete GPU acceleration

The video also highlights Premio’s vehicle-ready technologies, including power and ignition management, CAN connectivity, wireless communication, flexible sensor and camera I/O, wide operating temperature, and rugged mechanical design.

Whether you’re developing telematics, driver monitoring, AI dashcam, perception, or autonomous mobility applications, the right compute architecture can help match performance to the workload.
