Off-the-shelf PCs fail in vans. Heat, vibration, dirty 12V power, cramped mounting spaces — and none of them will take the specific capture or interface card your survey equipment needs.
I design and build compact, rugged mini-ITX systems around your exact hardware requirement, test them on the bench, and support them after they're bolted into the vehicle.
Survey and inspection firms · Drainage & CCTV inspection · Utilities and field engineering · Mobile broadcast · Anyone who needs a full PC — not a tablet — working reliably in a vehicle.
The non-negotiable hardware (e.g. a specific PCIe capture card), the software stack, and the vehicle it's going into.
Chassis, cooling, power and mounting chosen around that requirement. I'll tell you honestly where the constraints are.
Assembled and soak-tested before it ever sees the van.
Installation guidance, and ongoing remote support wherever the vehicle is.
Custom in-vehicle inspection PCs built around their survey capture hardware, running daily in their vans — alongside the office network, Wi-Fi and CCTV that support the operation.
Rugged PC vendors sell you what's in their catalogue. I start from your hardware requirement and build outward — which matters when the whole job depends on one specific card working in one specific space. And because I build it, I can actually support it.
I'll tell you straight whether it's buildable — and what it would take.
