Proto Armour is a system of protective enclosure hardware designed for today's most popular development platforms. Engineers and designers save months of development time through rapid prototyping and tool re-use, and often take advantage of modular development platforms offered by embedded processor manufacturers. These evaluation boards and reference designs are generally used to evaluate the suitability of an embedded device for use in a new product design. Successful evaluation typically leads to the development of a prototype that approximates the functionality of the new product. Subsequent prototypes are built having additional features and functionality until the final product design is complete and released to manufacturing. It is often desirable to use an off-the-shelf evaluation board throughout several rounds of prototyping, however the board suppliers rarely offer enclosure hardware suitable for use with their products. Proto Armour is designed to meet this challenge with a system of protective enclosure hardware designed for today's most popular development platforms.
