NEXCOM to demonstrate IoT edge computing at Embedded World 2024

Embedded edge operating systems, cybersecurity, integrated gateways, and AI to be shown

NEXCOM


NEXCOM’s new AIC OT-X software-defined edge computing OS for embedded IoT devices can function as an integrated gateway and converge edge microservices.
IIoT computing provider NEXCOM will showcase its latest AI, edge, and cybersecurity offerings at Embedded World. The company also provides robot controllers and integration gateways.

Industrial computer (iPC) and operating system (OS) provider NEXCOM recently announced it will showcase its latest products at Embedded World 2024 in Hall 5 Booth 5-253. The trade show will be held April 9 to 11 in Nürnberg, Germany.

NEXCOM said it will be showing a range of products ideal for 5G, industrial internet of things (IIoT), transportation AI, smart city and more - with an emphasis on edge computing AI, operational technology (OT) cybersecurity, and carbon footprint management.

NEXCOM provides internet of things (IoT) devices for automation systems, including industrial robot controllers and AI computers for robots. In August 2023, Universal Robots and NexCOBOT, a subsidiary of NEXCOM, announced a partnership to develop a “Smart Robot Box” integration gateway device that is also compatible with ABB, FANUC, KUKA, and Yaskawa Motoman robots.

Software defined edge computing with IoT embedded OS

The AIC OT-X is NEXCOM’s latest software-defined edge computing OS for embedded IoT devices. It can be run on x86 platforms as an OT and IoT integrated gateway, and offers development of software-defined edge computers. AIC OT-X features a container-based architecture that NEXCOM said optimizes size, performance and usability.

NEXCOM’s AIC OT-X bridges the gap between OT, IT, and IoT, converging applications and microservices running on edge devices. Industrial computers with AIC OT-X can be converted to software components. The OS allows deployment of Docker images from the cloud to the edge, with simple extension of microservices for OT and AI applications.

Edge AI and IIoT cybersecurity for manufacturing 

NEXCOM’s NexAIoT NISE 3910 series, with an Intel 12th or 13th generation Core CPU, is designed for edge AI applications. It can also serve as a platform to bridge OT to IT as a gateway and edge server all in one. NEXCOM said its NISE 3910 can provide a reliable solution for industrial systems applications. 

NEXCOM’s TMRTEK eSAF OT cybersecurity solution can provide hardware and software to secure OT and IIoT systems. The cross-network package offers options for real-time threat analysis, detection and prevention, and firewall protection. It also guards against viruses, ransomware, and hacking attacks.
