Application Requirement

For self-service ticket machines, there should be no mistakes while handling cash, bank transactions and issuing tickets, otherwise it could cause serious losses for banks and customers.
As the solution needed to connect to the display, video capture card, bank card reader and ticket printer, there was a high demand on the host’s serial ports and their scalability.

Also, video storage required large amounts of storage, and the host needed to adapt to various environmental conditions such as humidity, dust, high temperature, and severe cold.
