They are a significant addition to our ever growing offering of SBC solutions for industrial automation and control applications. Kunbus offers a platform that further extends the performance and simplicity of the Raspberry Pi to industrial environments with the added benefit of enabling our customers to retrofit to existing systems which is a challenge in most sectors.”
