Reaching the goal with passion

DATA MODUL at the Münchner-Kindl-Lauf 2024

Last Saturday, we showed our sporting commitment and combined our involvement with a good cause: With our ambitious colleagues, we took to the starting line of the 17th Münchner-Kindl-Lauf! The starting signal was given at the idyllic Seestadl in Munich's English Garden, where we took part in a 5 or 10 kilometre run.

Equipped with DATA MODUL sports outfits and a portion of ambition, our athletic commitment went beyond pure sporting competition: each registration supported the Munich Outpatient Children's Hospice by donating part of the registration fee to the institution, which cares for families with a terminally or seriously ill child or parent. We already made a Christmas donation to this organisation last year, and we are delighted that our running fever is also doing something good.

A big thank you to everyone who took part! We are already looking forward to the next event together!

a2 colour e-paper display from sharp

Portfolio expansion: A2 colour e-paper display from Sharp

We are pleased to introduce our new 28.5 inch A2 colour e-paper display from Sharp. This innovative display offers over 65,000 colours thanks to the latest Spectra6 technology from E Ink. Its resolution of 3060 x 2160 pixels and extended temperature range of 0° to 50°C make it ideal for retail, indoor signage, digital out-of-home advertisements (DOOH), restaurant displays and smart city applications.

The slim and lightweight design of the Sharp A2 colour e-paper display makes it the perfect choice for customers looking for scalable and customisable solutions. The narrow bezel allows for seamless multiple displays. The e-paper technology also makes it extremely energy efficient, as power is only required when changing images.

dke e-paper 1.54 inch data modul

New e-paper displays from DKE with more colours

We are pleased to introduce an extended range of small e-paper displays from 1.54 inches from DKE. These are now available in a 4-colour version (black/white/red/yellow) as standard, offering improved flexibility in the colour design of content. The additional combination of red and yellow opens up new possibilities for displaying information in applications where small e-paper displays are typically used, such as electronic shelf labelling.

The displays offer an extremely wide viewing angle, a temperature range of 0° to +40°C and a high DPI rate. As e-paper displays only require power to change the image, they are extremely energy-efficient. Thanks to their reflective properties and always-on mode, the image content always remains clearly legible.

3.5-inch HMI unit for professional coffee machines

We are pleased to announce the successful development of a customised 3.5-inch Human Machine Interface (HMI) unit that we developed specifically for a coffee machine manufacturer. The development was carried out in close co-operation with the customer, taking into account specific design requirements and cost considerations.

The HMI unit is based on a cost-efficient STM32 (Cortex M7) based embedded board and offers an intuitive user interface that ensures seamless integration into existing systems. The high-resolution 3.5-inch TFT display with IPS Wide View Technology guarantees brilliant colours and a brightness of 700cd. The black panel effect is enhanced by the applied full bonding process, which ensures an appealing aesthetic.

This project underlines our expertise in the development of customised solutions for kitchen appliances such as coffee machines and at the same time demonstrates the successful combination of technical requirements and economic efficiency to create innovative products of the highest quality.

Sustainability
Corporate volunteering projects data modul

Sustainability is future viability

At DATA MODUL, we see sustainability as the basis for future-oriented action that aligns economic considerations and ecological aspects. Our sustainability efforts are focussed on several levels: we are currently determining our corporate carbon footprint (CCF), developing a comprehensive global sustainability strategy and improving our products in terms of energy efficiency and the use of alternative materials. These steps require a thorough analysis and the derivation of corresponding targets and measures for the continuous expansion of resource-conserving business practices.
 
In addition to these major initiatives, we also focus on smaller, daily actions, as we are firmly convinced that they can also make a significant contribution in their entirety. We see sustainability as a shared responsibility that we promote across all departments. Based on this conviction, we organize also corporate volunteering projects that bring together employees from different departments. One example is our partnership with Bergwald e.V., where we recently made a small contribution to climate adaptation of local forest ecosystems for the second time since 2022 by planting 1,000 trees this time thanks to the dedicated efforts of 20 employees from the Weikersheim site.

Touchless operation via voice control

Did you know that we offer an innovative voice control for industrial HMI applications that enables touch-free control of machines and devices?

Especially in situations where operators do not have a hand free to touch a device, our voice control offers an efficient and convenient solution. It can be used both online and offline. In offline mode, a limited set of commands is available, allowing the user to perform the most important functions of the device by voice command. The microphone is configured to filter out ambient noise and recognise only the user's voice, providing excellent handling. The system can be connected via a 5V or 3.3V power supply as well as via line-in or USB audio connection and can be connected to our i.MX8Mm SBC.

At this year's Embedded World in Nuremberg, we presented an impressive demo that clearly demonstrated the advantages of voice control. With the help of keywords such as "set colour to" and "green", an LED strip could be controlled and its colour adjusted. The microphone had a selective effect and could clearly recognise the user's voice despite strong ambient noise. Our voice control offers great potential for touchless control of signage and POS/POI applications, as well as for controlling machines and devices in industrial environments.

maXcs software now also runs in web browsers

We now offer the option to use the in-house developed maXcs software with the standard web browsers on numerous signage monitors. Airports in Singapore, Hong Kong and Stuttgart or at other facilities such as amusement parks are already successfully working with the software. Customers can now also use conventional web browsers to display text, images and videos. The maXcs software includes numerous key features and enables customers to implement projects cost-efficiently and flexibly without being bound to a specific hardware determined by the manufacturer.

The enhancement of our maXcs software by browser-based content display is an important step for us to offer our customers even more flexibility. This opens up new possibilities for the implementation of projects, in particular for customers in the retail, airport, transport and digital signage sectors”, explains Kevin Schmidt, Product Manager Signage Division.

ALC Sensor Board by DATA MODUL

Ambient Light Sensor Board

Discover the features of our Ambient Light Sensor Board, which automatically adjusts the brightness of the display to the ambient light conditions. This not only extends the lifetime of the display, but also saves energy.

The sensor detects light in the spectrum of the human eye and is perfectly suited for applications such as self-check-in/check-out, user recognition and access authorization or for successful queue management e.g. in retail. The board is designed to work with our proprietary eMotion NT scaler boards and features a high-sensitivity, low-power light sensor technology with I²C interface. It offers excellent IR and UV rejection, as well as integrated 50/60Hz noise suppression. The measured light intensity is used to adjust the display brightness. The board features a wide temperature range and can be modified and customized upon customer request.
