Industrial PC for virtual reality and digital signage

Like its predecessors, the spo-book KUMO IV impresses with its innovative and unique combination of a robust, compact metal housing and an extremely powerful high-end graphics card. The latter comes from nVidia’s current Pascal generation, goes by the name of GTX 1060 and is equipped with 6 GB DDR5 video RAM. Outstanding performance is also ensured by an Intel Core i5-6400T desktop CPU (Skylake) with four cores and a frequency of 2.2 (max. 2.8) gigahertz. Whether high-resolution digital signage applications or sophisticated virtual reality solutions – (almost) anything is possible with the spo-book KUMO IV.

Four times 4K@60Hz

Thanks to two DisplayPort 1.3 ports and two HDMI 2.0b ports, the Mini-PC is capable of displaying content on four screens simultaneously at a resolution of 4K@60Hz. And if 4K is not enough, the spo-book KUMO IV even displays 8K@60Hz, i.e. a resolution of an incredible 7680×4320 pixels. It is supported by up to 32 GB DDR 4 RAM. It’s hard to believe that this extraordinary performance is housed in a compact housing measuring just 200 x 205 x 80 mm. The Mini-PC will be available in the desired configuration from the end of March.

In order to bring vehicle computing up to date, spo-comm has removed the MOVE QM77 from its range. It has been replaced by the MOVE QM87 with a fourth-generation Intel Core i5.

More connections with the same dimensions

The dimensions of the Mini-PC are unchanged and are 55 x 250 x 150 millimeters. However, there are now more connections on the housing. Instead of three, there are now four COM interfaces, two of which are RS422/485. In addition to DVI-I and DisplayPort, the spo-book MOVE QM87 now also has a VGA connection so that up to three screens can be connected. As we are once again dealing with a classic vehicle PC, the 9-36 V wide range power connection, the optional battery and the Mini PCIe slots for expansion cards have of course been retained.

Performance improvement

Although the CPU of the new MOVE QM87 is “only” an Intel Core i5, it is from the fourth generation (Haswell) and is therefore newer than the Intel Core i7 (3rd generation, Ivy Bridge) of the MOVE QM77. The two processors are not only comparable in terms of performance, but the i5 even outperforms the i7 in most benchmarks, as this comparison shows. This increase in performance is complemented by an increase in RAM. Instead of eight, the MOVE QM87 can have up to 16 gigabytes of RAM.

Although the MOVE QM77 is EOL, existing projects will continue to be supplied. And if less power is required: an update for our “small” MOVE NM10 and MOVE T56N vehicle PCs will also be available soon.

Vehicle Computing by spo-comm

Mini PC with lots of content

The interior of the familiar compact industrial PC surprises with numerous options that take vehicle computing to a new level. The robust and fanless metal housing measuring 250 x 55 x 150 millimeters has space for up to two HDDs or SSDs as well as modules for WLAN, Bluetooth, mobile network (3G/4G) and GPS. Thanks to the dual SIM slot, operation in two independent mobile networks is even possible. This opens up completely new possibilities for use in the mobile environment.

The EXPANDED: Flexible all-rounder

The NINETEEN: the name says it all

One chipset, two solutions

The EXPANDED Q170 is the perfect solution for customers who work professionally in the audio/video sector, require outstanding performance and want to connect multiple screens. However, if you are looking for a powerful, robust and yet slim rackmount system, you should take a closer look at the NINETEEN Q170. Both Mini-PCs are available immediately and can be ordered in the desired configuration at spo-comm.de.

New dimensions and connections

The product change results in modified dimensions and connections. Instead of 43 x 195 x 135 millimeters, the external dimensions of the spo-book BRICK J1900 are now 55 x 200 x 155 millimeters. This provides space for even more connections: The new model now has six COM interfaces on the front panel instead of four. The USB ports have also been expanded from four to six, one of which complies with the latest 3.0 standard. In addition to two audio connections, a DIO connection is now also available. The two LAN interfaces can optionally be expanded to four.

Even more robust

While four gigabytes of RAM was the maximum for the BRICK NM10, the BRICK J1900 can now be fitted with up to eight gigabytes. As usual, an HDD and MLC and SLC SSDs are available as mass storage devices. The temperature range increases from 0°C to 40°C to -10°C to 50°C.

Current software

The selection of operating systems is now also up to date. While the BRICK NM10 only offered Windows 7 in the 32-bit version, the spo-book BRICK J1900 is also available with Windows 10 in addition to Windows 7 64-bit. Windows Embedded and Linux are also still available. Anyone who is dependent on a 32-bit operating system for their application can also switch to the BRICK J1900 without any problems. Although spo-comm does not actively offer this variant, the appropriate drivers can be provided.

Price reduction

The spo-book BRICK NM10 is still available until the end of the year. The price of its successor, the BRICK J1900, has already been reduced. To make the changeover easier for you, we provide a free trial version at any time. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

The BRICK series, which was developed together with MSI IPC and is characterized by passive cooling and multiple COM interfaces, has been in existence since 2009. The Mini PCs are mainly used in the Industrial Control and KIOSK/POS sectors.

Convincing price/performance ratio

Ultra-compact and super-light

Sophisticated technology was used to develop an ultra-compact mainboard and pack it into an equally small housing. Measuring 112 x 41 x 108 millimeters, the spo-book CORE fits behind any screen and is easy to mount thanks to the integrated VESA 75 mount. There it runs continuously 24/7 in a temperature range from 0°C to 40°C without any problems. The robust yet super-light aluminum housing makes the mini PC a real flyweight: fully equipped, it weighs just 500 grams.

Open Pluggable Specification

With the new player, spo-comm is launching the first PC on the market that complies with the OPS standard. The Open Pluggable Specification was developed to simplify and standardize digital signage applications. The player can simply be plugged into a suitable professional monitor and put into operation. A separate power connection and connection cable are not required. The dimensions of the embedded PC comply with the OPS standard and are 180*30*119 millimeters without the mounting frame and 200*30*119 millimeters if the mounting frame is included. 

Current Skylake architecture

The spo-comm OPS is state-of-the-art in terms of performance and the first spo-book to be equipped with Intel Skylake technology. The powerful Intel Core i5-6200U processor in combination with up to 16 gigabytes of RAM enables high-resolution applications. Content in 4K format can also be played back via the OPS’s own JAE connection. With the further development of the processor architecture, Intel has also significantly reduced the power consumption of the CPU. The integrated SmartFan technology ensures that the embedded PC is always optimally cooled.
