Relio R9 Embedded Computer Platform - Product Update

IMPULSE PRODUCT UPDATE

Our Engineers wanted to let everyone know about the Relio R9 and why it is so unique. First a bit of background.....following on from our earlier news back in October 2009 regarding the release of the Relio R9 Embedded Computer from Sealevel Systems, we have updated our product information to provide more details on the Relio R9 including an Relio R9 Presentation.


To give you a quick overview here are some questions IMPULSE customers have been asking our Sales Team.

Q. Why is the R9 concept so unique?

A. The R9 concept is unique as you can Take Only What You Need - In a nutshell you can take only the features you need, and throw away the features you don’t, thus making a powerful specialised computing platform which is low cost, and low barrier to entry.

Our Engineers were keen to point out that there is a developers kit available which includes all the tools you’re likely to need – including a fully populated SBC which is so easy to work with using the developer’s platform.

Q. How do I tailor the Relio R9 to meet my needs?

A. Once you have completed your development, and decided on your I/O count, Sealevel can produce a specialised version of the R9 which is tailored to your requirement in specification, size, shape, connector type, certifications and any other constraints you may find yourself with. NRE and MOQs are kept low to ensure your development stays in budget.

Q. Where can I find more information?
A. Speak to your IMPULSE technical account manager and they can guide you through the process and tell you all about the Relio R9 or visit the dedicated page on the IMPULSE website using the link below:

Q. How do Sealevel Systems and IMPULSE work together?
A. IMPULSE are one of Sealevel Systems oldest partners in Europe and work closely together to understand our customer’s requirements. You can read more at our Sealevel Systems Partners Page.
