Did you ever think it would be possible to design a car – let alone an autonomous one – just like a smartphone? Harbrick has designed a clever piece of kit that allows you to do just that. Containing an Intel Bay Trail Atom quad core processor running Harbrick’s PolySync software, Kvaser’s mini PCI Express 2xHS, plus four USB 3.0 ports and three gigabit Ethernet ports, the Norland ECU is effectively an out-of-the-box operating system for autonomous vehicles, in just the way that Android is for robots.
