Medical laboratories are under increasing pressure to deliver faster, more accurate diagnostics while handling growing workloads and more complex tests. Automated analyzers—such as hematology platforms—are essential tools that replace manual processes with high-throughput, precise analysis, significantly improving turnaround times in clinical workflows.
These instruments generate large volumes of high-precision data and require embedded compute platforms trusted to deliver real-time performance, advanced user interfaces, and reliable connectivity with laboratory systems.
Traditionally, custom hardware has been used to meet these demands. However, proprietary designs can slow development, complicate maintenance, and pose supply chain risks.
A more agile and scalable alternative lies in adopting Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) Computer-on-Modules (COMs) based on open industry standards such as SMARC and COM Express. These modules provide high-performance processing, low-power operation, extensive connectivity, and long-term availability, enabling medical device manufacturers to streamline design and focus on innovation rather than repetitive hardware redesigns.
By leveraging standardized COM architectures, OEMs can accelerate time-to-market, ensure future-proof scalability, and direct engineering effort toward higher-value capabilities—such as integrating AI-driven analytical features that enhance diagnostic insight.
