Taipei, Taiwan. DFI launched new Edge AI systems including the EC600 series with AI module expansion, the compact and fanless EC700 series, and the MPC350-RPS medical Edge AI server, designed for medical AI computing and processing. The solutions are developed to guarantee real-time computing, stable deployment, and enhanced data security.

The expandable and fanless EC600 series (EC600-RPS, EC622-RPS, EC633-RPS, EC633D-RPS) supports up to 24 cores and 65W TDP 14th Gen Intel Core processors. It features five M.2 expansion slots and supports enhanced GPUs with 400W power. The systems are ideal for machine vision, Automated Optical Inspection (AOI), and equipment condition monitoring in smart manufacturing.

DFI’s compact EC700-ADN, EC710-ADN, and EC700-ASL models offer rugged performance with M.2 AI acceleration needs. Equipped with scalable AI features and DFI’s Out-of-Band (OOB) management, both series allow engineers to remotely update BIOS and reboot systems, reducing downtime and simplifying maintenance.

DFI’s MPC350-RPS Edge AI server addresses medical AI needs by supporting Edge AI processing that secures sensitive data by mitigating transmission vulnerabilities while complying with rigorous regulations. The real-time high-precision computing is ideal for CT, MRI, and X-ray image processing.
