With its modular carrier board concept, Iftest AG offers a flexibly expandable development platform for industrial and medical technology applications. The use of scalable COM modules and proven circuit elements significantly reduces development time, costs and complexity. The platform can be individually adapted to the available space and requirements – including combinable I/Os, communication interfaces and touch and display options.

The hardware is complemented by a modular software architecture with abstracted drivers, platform-independent GUI and support for common operating systems such as Linux, Android or RTOS. The parallel development of hardware and software as well as late programming via bootloader enable maximum flexibility.

A particular highlight is the platform’s edge AI capability: thanks to local data processing and scalable computing power, functions such as anomaly detection, predictive maintenance or optical inspection can be implemented directly in the device – independently of the cloud and with full data sovereignty.

The result: an agile, maintainable and future-proof solution for OEMs who want to bring their products to market faster and benefit from modern technology at the same time.
