A Panel PC is a computer which has the display and chassis incorporated into one device. The traditional panel pc was made up of a chassis, power supply, backplane, SBC (single board computer), expansion cards (when applicable through backplane), cooling system, and a display panel. These panel pc’s offer many expansion opportunities to customize the panel pc to the customers needs. Recently panel pc’s have been getting smaller and smaller with the use of mini-ITX motherboards. These mini-itx mother boards provide a smaller form factor to suit limited space requirements as well as consuming less power than the older panel pc’s. Most panel pc’s you will find these days will use a touchscreen display panel as the HMI (human machine interface) rather than the mouse and keyboard. This touch screen technology has many advantages such as reliability, clarity, accuracy, responsiveness, and ease of installation and use. Panel pc’s are used in a variety of sectors such as medical, industrial, commercial, and military.
