They are perhaps most well known for their 'Mobile on Desktop' (MoDT)^[1] solutions, which implements Intel's Pentium M platform on desktop motherboards. Because the Pentium 4 and other NetBurst CPUs proved less energy efficient than the Pentium M, in late 2004^[2] and early 2005,^[3] many manufacturers introduced desktop motherboards for the mobile Pentium M, AOpen being one of the first.

AOpen specializes in ultra small form factor (uSFF) platform applications; digital signage; and product development and designs characterized by miniaturization, standardization and modularization.

Product position and strategies[edit]

Since 2005^[4] AOPEN has been developing energy-saving products. According to different types of customers, applications and contexts, AOPEN splits its product platforms into two major categories: media player platform and Panel PC platform, both of which has Windows, Linux and Chrome OS devices.

Digital Signage Platform[edit]

There are six major parts in AOPEN's digital signage platform applications:^[5] media player, management, deployment, display, extension and software.

Small Form Factor Platform[edit]

AOPEN develops digital signage players with a small form factor. A small form factor means the width of the mini PC is 166mm and the depth of the device is 158mm. The small form factor is something that enables manufacturers to ensure their hardware fits better in kiosks, such as self-ordering kiosks and self-service kiosks. It's also beneficial to have a small form factor because it fits easily behind a screen.^{[citation needed]}
