The global computer on module market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.4% during the forecast period, 2021–2031.
The growing adoption of IoT technology and associated devices is driving the demand for computer-on-module systems. Computer on module enables the straightforward integration of IoT, thereby increasing demand across various industry sectors for automation. The combination of IoT with computer-on-module results in customized IoT platforms that fit various industrial requirements. In smaller machines, space is limited or confined in some dimensions, which calls for special solutions such as computer-on-modules. The use of a computer-on-module in combination with a custom carrier board with special interface electronics and mechanics is beneficial is saving capacity. For instance, Kontron S&T AG provides a combined portfolio of secure hardware, middleware, and services for the Internet of Things (IoT) and Industry 4.0 applications. Constant improvements by manufacturers to make computer-on-module systems progressively compact and cost-effective are leading to an upsurge in the demand from various industries such as transportation, medical, and others. As these devices continue to shrink, designers have the freedom to create new innovative devices and applications that are in demand.
