| - | ====== FAQ ====== | ||
| - | ===== Why did we develop the jPC? ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Many people ask us, "Since you already have the ComfilePi, why did you create another panel PC?" | ||
| - | |||
| - | To put it simply, **the jPC and the ComfilePi are products built on completely different foundations.** | ||
| - | |||
| - | The ComfilePi is a touch panel PC based on the Raspberry Pi ecosystem. Its greatest advantage is the ability to leverage the vast Raspberry Pi community and a wide array of open-source software. In fact, many of our customers successfully build various systems using the ComfilePi. | ||
| - | |||
| - | However, existing CUWIN (Windows CE) users faced a different set of dilemmas. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Has Windows CE come to an end? ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | CUWIN has been a reliable fixture in industrial environments for a very long time. It was a stable and user-friendly platform, but Windows CE has reached its official end-of-life (EOL). Developing new products on it has become increasingly impractical. | ||
| - | |||
| - | As a result, existing CUWIN users have found themselves at a crossroads, pondering which platform to transition to next. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Why Linux? ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Today, Linux is the most realistic and viable choice for industrial embedded systems. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Linux offers long-term maintenance, | ||
| - | |||
| - | That is why we chose Linux as the foundation for our next-generation CUWIN platform. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Then, isn't the ComfilePi enough? ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | The ComfilePi is indeed an excellent product. | ||
| - | |||
| - | However, the ComfilePi is ultimately bound to the Raspberry Pi platform. Therefore, maintaining compatibility with the existing Raspberry Pi ecosystem is a top priority for it. | ||
| - | |||
| - | On the other hand, industrial fields demand strict requirements that differ from general-purpose PCs: | ||
| - | |||
| - | * Sudden power cutoffs | ||
| - | * Long-term, non-stop operation | ||
| - | * Predictable, | ||
| - | * Standardization of the development environment | ||
| - | * Simplification of on-site maintenance | ||
| - | |||
| - | To freely modify and optimize the operating system tailored to these specific demands, an independent platform was absolutely necessary. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== What exactly is the difference? ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | The jPC is not just another panel PC with Linux installed. | ||
| - | |||
| - | It is an embedded Linux platform precision-engineered for long-term reliability in harsh industrial environments. | ||
| - | |||
| - | To achieve this, the operating system (OS) has been meticulously tuned at a granular level. This is exactly where Comfile Technology' | ||
| - | |||
| - | * System configuration designed for abrupt power loss (Partition separation) | ||
| - | * Real-Time operation support | ||
| - | * Built-in .NET development environment | ||
| - | * System optimization tailored for industrial equipment | ||
| - | * Platform design geared for long-term maintenance | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Which product should I choose? ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | If you want to leverage the rich Raspberry Pi ecosystem and various open-source projects, the ComfilePi is a great choice. Conversely, if you need a system that runs stably over the long haul in an industrial field, or if you plan to develop .NET-based industrial applications, | ||
| - | |||
| - | These two products are not competitors. | ||
| - | |||
| - | The ComfilePi is for customers who want to utilize the Raspberry Pi platform, while the jPC is for those who need a next-generation CUWIN. We offer both solutions so that you can choose the platform that best fits your specific goals. | ||
