The NUC targets compact intelligent systems that require high performance data, graphics and media capabilities over a wide temperature range.
The Intel NUC with Intel Atom processor E3815 Board and Kit available from Mouser Electronics is a portable yet powerful computer system that is about the size of a paperback novel.

Video is supported by one HDMI 1.4a port.
These Intel NUCs are designed as essential building blocks for the thin client market. Both Linux and Windows Embedded operating systems are supported. Applications for these Intel NUCs include digital signage, point?of?sale systems, and kiosk solutions. Developers can expand these applications to include custom DVR systems and other portable computing platforms.
