Eurotech - Experts & Thought Leaders

The Industrial IoT sector is undergoing a rapid evolution, demanding software-defined edge nodes capable of running containerised workloads on cost-effective platforms. This transformation is driven by the need for greater flexibility, reusability, security, and the ability to deploy intelligent applications directly at the edge: where data is generated. In response to this industry shift, Eurotech introduces the ReliaGATE 15A-12, a rugged IoT gateway based on the Arm® compute platform, designed to bridge the gap between embedded legacy systems and cloud-native edge computing. Operational and sustainability goals "The ReliaGATE 15A-12 was designed to align perfectly with this transition," said Marco Carrer, CTO of Eurotech. "It supports containers and modern programming languages — enabling customers to evolve from fixed-function firmware to scalable, reusable application architectures." "This product was engineered specifically to meet the needs of companies leading the charge in deploying edge intelligence to serve both operational and sustainability goals." ReliaGATE 15A-12 reflects Eurotech's product strategy ReliaGATE 15A-12 reflects Eurotech's product strategy to enable real-world digitalisation in regulated The ReliaGATE 15A-12 reflects Eurotech's product strategy to enable real-world digitalisation in regulated, mission-critical industries such as water infrastructure, energy, manufacturing, and smart transportation. Its secure-by-design architecture — featuring secure boot, TPM 2.0, tamper detection, and OTA updates — ensures robustness and compliance, while its flexibility supports long-term innovation in the field. "Modernising industrial infrastructure increasingly depends on edge platforms that deliver real-time intelligence, security, and flexibility," said Paul Williamson, Senior Vice President and General Manager, IoT Line of Business at Arm. Advantage of the Arm compute platform Williamson added: "The ReliaGATE 15A-12 takes advantage of the Arm compute platform to bring efficient, scalable intelligence to critical on-device environments. Eurotech is leading the way for industrial digitalisation at the edge, built on Arm's trusted foundation." Among its first real-world applications, the ReliaGATE 15A-12 is already supporting the digitalisation of water infrastructure, enabling remote monitoring, connected system visibility, and data-driven insights that strengthen sustainability and resilience.

Unlocking new possibilities in AI-driven surveillance The joint solutions integrate Eurotech’s industrial-grade edge AI hardware with AxxonSoft’s software The joint solutions integrate Eurotech’s industrial-grade edge AI hardware with AxxonSoft’s software that features AI detectors for real-time object tracking, licence plate recognition (LPR), human posture detection, and more. This ensures reliable performance in demanding environments. Key highlights of the solutions include: AI Performance: Eurotech’s NVIDIA Jetson Orin–powered hardware enables increased performance and energy efficiency at the edge. Scalability & Flexibility: The solutions can easily scale from small installations to large, enterprise-wide deployments. Enhanced Security: Eurotech’s hardware offers strong cybersecurity features, including ISASecure/IEC 62443 certifications, TPM 2.0, Secure Boot, and physical anti-tampering, all designed to deliver robust solutions that comply with global regulations such as the EU NIS2 and the US Cyber Incident Reporting for Critical Infrastructure Act. Cost Efficiency: Pre-installing AxxonSoft software on Eurotech devices using Docker containers with pre-configured settings reduces deployment time and lowers the total cost of ownership (TCO). Real-world testing and performance The integrated solutions have been rigorously tested, with impressive results. Tests on Eurotech’s hardware showed the ability to handle up to 55 video channels (720p) with AxxonSoft’s AI trackers for human and vehicle detection at 6 FPS, ensuring both accuracy and efficiency. Conclusion Together, AxxonSoft and Eurotech offer easy-to-deploy, intelligent solutions based on the advanced AxxonSoft software backed by the reliable performance of Eurotech’s hardware. This collaboration is set to transform video surveillance across industries, from smart cities to critical infrastructure, including energy, transportation, and water and wastewater management, where compliance with global regulations and robust cybersecurity are paramount.

Eurotech, a pioneer in embedded systems and edge AI enablement solutions, launches ReliaGATE 15A-14, the industry's first cybersecure modular edge gateway designed to meet the growing demand for secure, flexible, and globally deployable IoT solutions. Built to support a wide range of applications, the ReliaGATE 15A-14 accelerates IoT projects by simplifying compliance with regional and carrier certifications, providing native support for field asset integration, and meeting stringent security standards. ReliaGATE 15A-14 The ReliaGATE 15A-14 combines flexible feature expansion to adapt to diverse customer requirements with multiple compact form factors ideal for space-constrained deployments. With cellular carrier certification and global coverage, it enables customers to operate across multiple regions with a single device version, significantly reducing operational overhead and stock management costs. 5G-ready and with a long lifecycle, the ReliaGATE 15A-14 is built to future-proof any project with ease. Cybersecurity Pre-certified to ISA/IEC 62443-4-2, it enables organisations to efficiently meet regulatory standards With cybersecurity becoming a requirement rather than an option, driven by regulations like the US IoT Cybersecurity Improvement Act, EU NIS2, RED, Cyber Resilience Act, and Machinery Directive, the ReliaGATE 15A-14 is ready to meet these demands right out of the box. Pre-certified to ISA/IEC 62443-4-2, it enables organisations to efficiently meet regulatory standards, drastically reducing compliance time, effort, and fees. Visual low-code/no-code programming The ReliaGATE 15A-14 also simplifies project lifecycle management by handling crucial aspects like security updates, secure cloud provisioning, and automatic tamper event reporting. It offers a visual low-code/no-code programming environment to significantly accelerate user application development, interface with field assets, connect them to cloud services, and execute sophisticated workloads on the device. This comprehensive approach maximises ROI and future-proofs organisations as they scale. Gateway modularity "Our ReliaGATE 15A-14 introduces a new approach to gateway modularity, while retaining a secure-by-design architecture. It minimises the physical footprint and enhances its configurability for different use cases - from industrial application to energy distribution," said Marco Carrer, CTO at Eurotech. He adds, "It allows businesses to deploy IoT solutions faster, simplify operations, reduce total cost of ownership, and meet cybersecurity compliance mandates with ease."  The ReliaGATE 15A-14 will be available in December 2024.
