Windows Embedded Compact 7 & Beckhoff Automation
Windows Embedded Compact 7, the latest operating system in the evolution of Microsoft's widely adopted Windows Embedded CE platform, is continuing to define the embedded marketplace. Beckhoff Automation is one manufacturer taking advantage of the platform today.
