SoM plus a custom carrier board
The product is built from a commercial SoM and a carrier board.
OCUBE takes on the board design and the Linux and Qt interface as well.

Embedded computing modulesWhat is SoM?
What is a System on Module?
A System on Module (SoM), sometimes a Computer on Module (CoM), puts the processor, the memory and the main I/O onto one small board — an embedded computing module.
The OS, drivers and board support package come with it.
Change the carrier board only, and one module serves several products.
With a proven module underneath, you can put your effort into the application that matters —
and carry less hardware risk and less delay.
Benefits
What a System on Module gives you
Faster to market
No base hardware redesign — effort goes to the application, launch comes sooner
A proven starting point
A commercial module already proven, so there is less new hardware to design and verify
Newer silicon when you want it
Modules with newer processors and memory let performance grow in steps
Lower development cost
Less custom board to design means less cost across the project
Why Toradex
Why Toradex
Performance, engineering support, long-term supply and upkeep considered together —
the range and support hold well past production.
Built for industrial conditions
Industrial temperature, vibration and humidity — the exact grade and approvals depend on the product
Room in the family
Choosing a compatible model in the same family means less carrier board to redesign
Lifecycle and upkeep
Long-term supply, with a process for changes and defects — the term and scope depend on the product
Making use of the hardware
Boot optimisation, GPU, cryptographic acceleration and 3D rendering, all put to use
Development environment
Board support package, GPIO, display configuration and system monitoring tools
Engineering support
Toradex documentation and global support, with OCUBE as first-line engineering support in Korea
