The VM-1 from Micro-Robotics is a credit-card-sized embedded control computer that is used with Venom-SC, the latest version of the popular object-oriented control-system language.
Boards and starter kits speed embedded designs
Micro-Robotics has designed a range of application boards and a complete starter kit for the new VM-1 credit-card-sized embedded control computer introduced earlier this year.
The VM-1 has proved extremely popular since its introduction in 2002 and has been subject to a continual development programme.
Among the enhancements have been: a low speed version with a 75% reduction in power consumption, a full range of TCP/IP protocols, a QVGA LCD and touch screen driver, an Ethernet interface and, most recently, IDE software and a low-level CANbus interface.
These developments have made the system suitable for an ever-increasing range of applications.
The Micro-Robotics starter kits allow fast turn-around of embedded system development and provide everything required to create a VM-1 application including VM-1 controller, application boards, keypad, Venom-SC language, power supply, serial lead and full documentation including a 160 page tutorial guide.
The new kit supports the Ethernet interface and QVGA LCD and touch screen driver. Request free introductory details about products from Micro-Robotics ...
