Case Studies

Highway Ai-MONITOR uses AI object recognition to warn road crews about vehicles entering restricted work zones. Its edge AI computer is the DX-U2200, chosen for vibration resistance, a wide operating temperature range and stable long-term supply.

NTT Facilities built Yure-Moni after the Great East Japan Earthquake to assess building safety objectively. The fanless BX-T1000 BOX Computer now runs the service at about 200 locations with no machine failures since the redesign.

Iwasaki Electric’s Cyber Tester automatically inspects wire harnesses and learns from defect data. A dedicated controller co-developed with Contec cut implementation cost nearly in half.

Mitsuboshi Diamond Industrial co-developed a custom FPGA controller on Contec’s BX-110n to achieve fast, precise laser processing while keeping its control technology in a black box.

Hanshin Expressway Engineering’s Dr. Now system streams live patient video from ambulances to hospitals. The fanless, shock-resistant BX-955 BOX Computer handles image processing and communications on board.

When Windows XP support was ending and budgets were tight, Japan Air Commuter kept its J-MAC aircraft maintenance system running on about 70 fanless Contec BOX computers with Windows Embedded Standard 2009.

East Japan Marketing & Communications grew its J-AD Vision station signage network to 170 screens at 18 locations. Ultra-thin, fanless BX-950 computers drive the full HD displays.

Taihei Kogyo’s mobile management system guides garbage truck drivers on a map, sends unscheduled pickups over the cell network and reports results automatically, running on a rugged Contec BOX computer in each truck.

Yuasa rebuilt its extendable weather camera poles around Contec’s BX-100n, adding internet control, compressed HD video, solar power and motion-triggered recording for remote monitoring.
