Multi-Purpose EV Charging Platform Launched, Embedded World 2024

DFI, a developer of embedded motherboards and industrial computers, has unveiled its novel EV charging system at this year’s Embedded World.

The new system is powered by Intel processors and has AI capabilities, allowing a single device to carry out multiple functions at once. These could include a charging controller, digital advertising, an interactive kiosk and payment transactions. 

DFI said the design responds to a surge in EV usage and the resulting need for an extensive EV charging infrastructure. 

The company said In a statement that the charger offers “numerous opportunities” for users. 

“By harnessing the power of AI-driven insights, advertising service providers can deliver unparalleled value to their clients, driving revenue generation and fostering long-term success in an increasingly competitive marketplace,” the company said.

Alexander Su, DFI’s president, said the system uses “virtual machine virtualization technology” to create a workload consolidation platform that can run multiple operating systems at once for EV charging. 

"We're proud to offer solutions enhancing user experiences and promoting sustainability in the AIOT era," said Su. 

"Intel technology is paving the way towards innovation in EV charging and transportation infrastructure", said Renu N. Navale, Intel’s vice president of network and edge group. "Innovations like these usher in a new era of technology in sustainability, mobility, and smart charging systems."
