Q. How is your new product offering different from what’s available on the market?
A. MicroFirst does not utilize any PCs to support our real-time automation processing, machine control or database management, but rather handles all of these activities on a specially designed embedded hardware platform (MPC 3200), running our own real-time OS (WinMOS). This environment removes us from all the vagaries associated with Windows and reduces the OS boot up/down time to a mere 10 seconds, and provides a robust environment against crashes and viruses.
Q. Where are you based, and how many employees do you have? Anything else we should know about your company?
A. MicroFirst is a New Jersey-based company that has been servicing the broadcast networks since 1992.
