en.Wedoany.com Reported - ASPEED Technology Inc., a global Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) provider, together with its subsidiary Cupola360 Inc., is exhibiting at COMPUTEX 2026, focusing on next-generation server solutions and data center control security. For the first time, it introduces the AST1840 Satellite Management Controller (SMC) + eFPGA integrated platform control solution and a full series of products adopting the Caliptra 2.x security architecture.
The AST1840 SMC+eFPGA, a result of the strategic collaboration between ASPEED and Lattice Semiconductor, integrates an embedded FPGA (eFPGA) into a single SoC. Based on the Arm Cortex-M4 processing system and 25K LUT programmable logic, this SoC allows development teams to implement custom functions using Lattice Diamond tools. The AST1840 supports a 1Gb/s bandwidth LTPI interface, the OCP OBMF-ICP standard protocol, and the Streaming Boot feature based on Caliptra 2.x Silicon Root of Trust (SiRoT), enabling developers to align with industry standards and achieve differentiated designs.
ASPEED also showcases products including the AST1040 SMC and AST1080 Platform Root of Trust (PRoT) SoC. The AST1040 SMC is tailored for modern servers, offloading main chip computing tasks and expanding peripheral control management flexibility. The AST1080 PRoT SoC focuses on hardware security and firmware protection. The entire product line, including the AST2700 eighth-generation BMC, AST1040 SMC, AST1840 SMC+eFPGA, and AST1080 PRoT SoC, has adopted the Caliptra 2.x SiRoT architecture, featuring physical tamper resistance.
Cupola360 expands from 360-degree panoramic camera modules to showcase a complete solution integrating hardware, platform software, AI, and IoT control. Its debut "New Generation Omnidirectional High-Speed Dome Camera" features patented image stitching technology, enabling real-time 360-degree panoramic surveillance without physical rotation, supporting locking, zooming, and tracking multiple targets within the same frame, compliant with the international ONVIF standard.
Cupola360's exhibition covers three main areas: The AI Smart Mobile 360° Zone defines the 360-degree panoramic camera module as the "visual core" of intelligent vehicles, showcasing panoramic inspection robots and robot dogs to ensure uninterrupted surround vision during movement, obstacle avoidance, and AI analysis; The Real-Scene Remote Management Zone centers on the Cupola360⁺ integrated hardware and software inspection platform, demonstrating integrated applications with multiple RX2000 smart inspection cameras, incorporating key components such as panoramic vision, IoT interaction, perspective switching, vehicle movement, and visual AI computing cores; The Cupola360 Modular Kit Zone offers turnkey standardized product solutions, including an integrated system optimized for AI data center operations and maintenance, as well as a "Panoramic Time Capsule" connected to Network Attached Storage (NAS).
