Artista / Raspberry Pi Controller

Artista - Intelligent Networking of Devices

Utilising Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and Industry 4.0, a growing movement is emerging to instill products with their own intelligence for the benefit of users everywhere, taking some burden off them in the process.

The Artista controller boards with the latest Raspberry Pi Compute Modules CM3+ and CM4 are the perfect basis for cost-effective IIoT and Industry 4.0 applications such as:

  • SmartGrid (monitoring and control of vending machines) 
  • Gateway to Middleware 
  • Facility management (Data acquisition and monitoring of e.g. temperature, sensors, access control etc.) and many more

The Artista controllers consist of an ArtistaMEDIA Baseboard and a Raspberry Pi Compute Module and can be easily adapted to the specific requirements of your application.
The important facts at a glance: 
  • Almost all TFT displays and PCAP touchpanels directly supported 
  • Top = -20 to +80°C 
  • Special functions like DICOM pre-set, gamma correction, colour calibration possible 
  • Artista-IoT starter kit available (Raspberry Pi OS) 
  • Linux based distribution with open-source Yocto 
  • Internal eMMC Flash saves the need of additional storage 
  • WiFi/Bluetooth via dongle respectively via CM4 
  • Real-time clock 
  • USB, GPIO, I²C, UART 
  • Auto-start at power on 
  • WIN10 ARM, Scratch and Python running, option: industrial Android 7.x 
  • Very good EMC behavior: EN standards according to industrial class
  • A Long-term availability: at least 6 years 
  • Raspberry Pi ensures the broad support of a large developer community 
  • Customised solutions can be implemented quickly on a project basis 
  • Customisation and integration of Linux drivers: For example, the driver for Ilitek's I²C Touch Controller Chip ILI2511 is included in the next Raspberry PI OS
