Commercial off the shelf
ABOUT COTS
Commercial off the shelf computers are seldom actually standard commercial units. What the phrase appears to have come to mean is “Commercial entity creates ‘special’ version of computers which are designed for a specific use, or environment, usually without any NRE. (Non-recurring engineering fee).”
This blog is a collection of such projects that are intended to inspire end users, and showcase the design and manufacturing creativity of Portexa llc and its manufacturing partner, ACME Portable machines.
