Portwell Inc., a global leader in industrial embedded computing and Edge AI solutions, announced that its subsidiary Wincomm won 2026 COMPUTEX Best Choice Award(BC Award) for its WMP-2XU smart mobile medical workstation. The award-winning WMP-2XU was recognized for its breakthrough integration of AI computing performance, intelligent power management, and ESG-driven sustainable design, showcasing Portwell and Wincomm’s strong innovation capability in advancing next-generation smart healthcare applications.
Accelerating Smart Healthcare Transformation with AI Computing
Designed to meet the growing demand for AI-assisted healthcare environments, WMP-2XU integrates Intel® Core™ Ultra AI PC platform within an ultra-lightweight 6.8kg chassis, delivering up to 22.5 TOPS AI computing performance — a 300% improvement over previous generations.
Combined with proprietary i-Control intelligent thermal technology, the system maintains stable fanless operation even under high-temperature and high-humidity medical environments such as operating rooms, enabling reliable AI-assisted diagnostics, surgical imaging, and telehealth applications.
This achievement further demonstrates Portwell and Wincomm’s long-term commitment to Edge AI and intelligent healthcare innovation. As healthcare institutions worldwide accelerate digital transformation and AI deployment, medical-grade computing systems with high reliability, mobility, and sustainability have become increasingly critical.
Innovative Battery Architecture Enables Continuous Clinical Operation
To address one of the most critical challenges in clinical mobility, WMP-2XU adopts an innovative hot-swappable battery architecture featuring three side-access lithium batteries with a total capacity of 88.8Wh, supporting more than 12 hours of uninterrupted operation.
The integrated BMMS (Battery Management Monitoring System) further enables remote battery health monitoring and predictive maintenance, helping hospital IT administrators optimize maintenance schedules and reduce operational costs without interrupting medical workflows.
Purpose-Built for Full-Scenario Smart Medical Applications
WMP-2XU is engineered to support diverse smart healthcare scenarios while ensuring medical safety and workflow efficiency. Key features include:
Medical-Grade Safety Design — Equipped with antimicrobial housing, IP65-rated waterproof front bezel, and a “Clean Me” one-touch screen lock function to support rapid clinical disinfection procedures.
Electrical Isolation Protection — Standard 1.5KV LAN/COM isolation design ensures secure connectivity with life-support equipment while complying with international medical certifications including MDR and UL 60601-1.
Flexible Peripheral Integration — Optional 30W peripheral power output supports direct connection of label printers and barcode scanners, enabling seamless deployment for medication carts, nursing stations, and telemedicine platforms.
Advancing ESG Goals Through Sustainable Strategy
Throughout the development process, Portwell and Wincomm also demonstrated strong commitment to environmental sustainability by fully implementing its strategy including:
Reduce — Low-power AI platform and lightweight system design help reduce energy consumption, material usage, and transportation carbon footprint.
Recycle — PVC-free and halogen-free manufacturing processes combined with recyclable pulp packaging materials align with RoHS and Energy Star environmental standards.
Reuse — Modular expansion architecture extends product lifecycle and minimizes unnecessary hardware replacement.
The recognition at COMPUTEX highlights the strong synergy between Portwell and Wincomm in driving AI-enabled healthcare transformation and sustainable innovation. Moving forward, we’ll continue collaborating to expand intelligent medical and Edge AI solutions across global healthcare markets.
