Rugged embedded systems offer an array of advantages, especially in harsh, extreme environments. These advantages include:

• A high level of reliability. Since embedded systems are used to perform a specific function in demanding circumstances (e.g. military or industrial settings), they need to be fully operational and resistant to certain extreme conditions such as vibration, rugged terrains, humidity, high temperatures, etc.
• Small form factor systems design. Small form factor (SFF) design is especially important for many military applications (avionics, ground vehicles, etc.) where weight, size and power are critical.  For rugged industrial applications (border security cameras and controllers, cybersecurity edge devices for power grid and critical infrastructure, etc.) SFF design allows for easy retrofit and integration into existing machinery and equipment.
• Low maintenance. Another advantage of embedded systems is that they don’t require a lot of maintenance and are suitable for system integration where servicing, updating, and system adjustment aren’t necessary.
• Efficient power consumption. The harsh settings often require the ongoing use of embedded systems, which is why the design should include components that enable efficient power consumption.

The specialists at ADL Embedded Solutions develop components that incorporate these benefits and are optimally designed for a variety of applications, including industrial and military elements. Our complete solutions are customized and optimized to deliver an exceptionally high level of durability and reliability. Small, yet efficient, our units are highly effective in their application.
