'Time to market is often a critical factor for our customers, and development of completely custom systems may be cost or time prohibitive', said Clark Roundy, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Parvus Corporation.
'For this reason, Parvus is introducing these exciting new standardised rugged processor, display and computer networking systems, which combine the core feature sets, environmental compliance, and functionality desired by our customers'.
'These products build on years of experience by Parvus developing and qualifying similar devices for prime defense contractors, metropolitan transit authorities, and homeland security integrators'.
'We anticipate this offering will enable our customers to fast-track their development cycle, since 80 to 100% of what they need will be already developed'.
These three new product families leverage Parvus' 20+ year heritage in embedded PC architecture and system ruggedisation.

The DuraCOR series systems are modular, highly configurable embedded computers designed to meet military and transportation environmental standards.
Ideal for general-purpose processing or application-specific functionality with addon modules, these systems are engineered to withstand the shock, vibration, humidity, extreme temperatures and power requirements experienced onboard vehicles or aircraft.
The DuraVIS series are rugged monitors and avionics displays available for industrial mobile, aerospace and military applications.
DuraVIS products offer daylight readability, a hardened mechanical design with anti-glare protective covers for impact protection and explosive decompression, excellent dimming capabilities, and exceptional low-temperature operation.
Some models also integrate modular embedded PC technology to support system expansion and onboard data processing capabilities.
Designed to meet MIL-STD-810F and MIL-STD-461, each unit is designed with high reliability in mind, protecting against glare, EMI/EMC, extreme temperature, physical contact, and shock and vibration.
