Why Off-the-Shelf Hardware Fails in Specialized Embedded Applications
Off–the–shelf hardware plays a valuable role in modern engineering. It accelerates development, reduces upfront cost, and works well for many general–purpose applications. For products with predictable environments and modest performance demands, standardized components can be an efficient solution. However, as applications become more specialized, constrained, or safety–critical, the limits of off–the–shelf hardware quickly become apparent. … Read more
