Avalue Transportation Computers: Rugged In-Vehicle Computing for Rail, Bus, and Fleet Applications

The Unique Demands of Transportation Computing

In-vehicle computers face environmental challenges that stationary factory PCs never encounter: constant vibration from road or rail surfaces, wide temperature swings from cold nights to hot summer days, dust and humidity in non-sealed vehicle cabins, and the need to start instantly on ignition power without corrupting storage.

Key Transportation-Specific Features

• MIL-STD-810G shock and vibration — survives rail joint impacts and road vibration continuously
• Wide temperature — -40°C to +70°C for extreme climate operation
• Ignition power management — monitors vehicle ignition state, performs clean shutdown to protect storage
• Wide voltage input — 9–36V DC, handles vehicle battery fluctuations and engine start transients
• SSD storage only — no HDD, immune to vibration-induced read/write errors
• EMC certified — EN 50155 or E-Mark certification for rail and vehicle use

Applications

• Metro and railway passenger information systems (PIS)
• Bus onboard ticketing and CCTV management
• Fleet telematics and GPS tracking nodes
• Rail predictive maintenance and condition monitoring
• Mining vehicle onboard computer
