The demands of AI and high-performance computing workloads are rapidly increasing, especially for data-intensive applications, like medical imaging and industrial automation, which can benefit from solutions that bring server-grade performance to the edge.

ARBOR Technology Corp. launched its rugged Edge AI platform, the FPC-9309W-G5, powered by Intel Core Ultra Processors (Series 2) with support for NVIDIA RTX 5090 GPU up to 575W. It offers real-time AI inference, machine vision processing, and high-performance analytics.

All entries are judged using a 15-point rubric that assesses design excellence, relative performance, and market impact/disruption. Judging is managed by the ECD Content Team.

ARBOR Technology Corp. introduced its ultra-slim fanless Edge AI system, the ARES-2100 Series. The platform combines Intel Xe3 graphics, and Intel NPU 5.0 to deliver up to 40 TOPS of AI performance. The dedicated NPU delivers up to 17 TOPS for complex neural processing, reducing CPU workload and enabling faster, low-latency inference.

ARBOR introduced its industrial-grade edge AI platform, ARES-1983H-AI, that is engineered for continuous operation in rugged space-constrained environments including airport baggage handling areas. It is designed for consistent, maintenance-free operation in harsh environments that contain various temperatures, dust, and vibration.

For over a decade, COM Express has defined modular embedded computing. 

ARBOR Technology is expected to demonstrate its innovations at embedded world Germany from March 10–12, 2026 in Nuremberg, Germany. ARBOR Technology’s Booth, No. 3-364, will be centered on the theme of “From Edge to Action.” Highlighted at the booth will be its COM-HPC modules and edge AI computing solutions ideal for data-driven actions across medicine and intelligent transportation applications. Booth demonstrations will include embedded products powered by Intel, NVIDIA, and AMD.
