7. 2.Mobility
 Electric-Vehicles Charging Stations
 Car and Bicycle Sharing
 Breathalyzer kiosks: Blood alcohol content
measuring (and Taxi Dispatching)
 Parking

8. 2.Mobility - Fast-chargers for ElectricVehicles
Requirements
 Wide operating temperature range for outdoor applications
 Rich I/O interface,highly integrated with other appliances and accessories:
embedded pc must connect with digital I/O module,display panel and a remote
central server via the Ethernet
 Great connectivity with an Ethernet network
 Low power consumption
Solution - ARK-2120 Fanless embedded box PC
 Supports up to 2 x GbE,6 x USB and 4 x COMs ports
 Intel® Atom™ N2600 or D2550 low-power processor delivers high performance with
lower voltage
 Wide operating temperature -20° ~ 60° C
 Supports remote functionalities including remote reset,which allows the system
administrators to power on/off the system from a remote control center
Fast-charging stations,with a single 15 to 30 minute charge,can support over
100 hours of driving and the transient electric current during a charge is huge

9. 2.Mobility - Parking Kiosks
ARK-1123C
 Rich I/O connections in serial and USB ports (2 x COM + 3 x USB)
 VGA output to support a kiosk display that shows parking info
 Ultra-rugged:Wide temperature -30 ~ 70ºC,metal chassis with special anti-corrosion treatment
 Dual storage support: 2.5”drive bay and/or half size mSATA
BENEFITS
 Maximize profitability, avoiding individual meters
 Energy efficiency,exploting solar-powered cells during the day and
rechargeable lithium batteries at night
 Violations prevention: maintaining a log of all paid parking spots,allow
to determine which motorists are in violation
 OPPORTUNITY: Electronic units that allow people to pay for parking with
credit / debit cards / pay-by-phone capabilities (in a cashless society,
fewer people are carrying coins)
