TAIPEI, Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Kontron, a leading global provider of IoT/Embedded Computing Technology (ECT), expands its KBox F-Series with the KBox F-203-RPS and KBox F-204-RPS, two compact industrial computers designed to address diverse requirements in intelligent Industry 4.0, edge computing and industrial IoT applications.

Both systems are powered by 12th, 13th or 14th Gen Intel® Core™ i9/i7/i5/i3 S-Series socket-type processors with a TDP of up to 65 W and support up to 96 GB DDR5 memory, providing a scalable computing foundation for demanding industrial applications requiring flexible performance configuration and long-term deployment.

The KBox F-203-RPS offers two LAN configurations with either two or four GbE ports, allowing customers to select the connectivity level that best fits their applications. The dual-LAN configuration provides an efficient solution for general industrial computing, equipment control and edge applications, while the four-LAN configuration offers additional network connectivity for applications involving multiple devices or network segments, such as machine vision, industrial automation and IoT gateways.

For applications requiring greater system expandability, the KBox F-204-RPS provides one PCIe x16 or two PCIe x8 expansion slots, offering the flexibility to integrate graphics, networking, AI acceleration or other add-on cards according to specific application requirements. With support for up to four 2.5-inch SATA HDDs/SSDs, it also provides extensive storage scalability for data-intensive workloads. These capabilities make the KBox F-204-RPS particularly suitable for industrial edge computing, machine vision, video processing and applications requiring additional functionality or large local data storage.

Together, the KBox F-203-RPS and KBox F-204-RPS enable customers to select the configuration that best matches their requirements, from a slimmer, network-focused industrial computer to a highly expandable edge computing platform.

Kontron Launches Two New KBox F-Series Industrial Computers To Bring Greater Flexibility and Scalability to Industrial Edge Computing

Recent coverage in ELLE Italia and Fashion Law Journal explores the Chinese womenswear brand's approach to clothing, from its signature Asymmetric Pants to the relationship between fabric, body and everyday life.

SHANGHAI, Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- INSIS, the Chinese womenswear brand founded in 2015, brings together tactile materials, considered construction and subtle Chinese influences through its approach to Natural Ease. Recent features in ELLE Italia and Fashion Law Journal, alongside ELLE Italia's coverage of the brand's participation in Venice's The Third Shore, introduce international readers to the ideas and product decisions behind this approach.

For INSIS, Natural Ease begins with the experience of wearing a garment: how a fabric feels against the skin, how a cut accommodates movement, and how a piece fits into different parts of the day. These considerations connect the brand's merino wool knitwear, alpaca-blend outerwear and signature Asymmetric Pants, giving its collections a consistent emphasis on comfort, proportion and individual ways of dressing.

Natural Ease, from fabric to fit

With a core team from the textile industry and a product research and development headquarters established in Shanghai in 2019, INSIS treats material selection as an early design decision. The weight, texture and behaviour of a fabric help determine the garment's shape and construction.

Its Autumn/Winter 2026 collection includes 17.5-micron superfine Australian merino wool knitwear, yak-fibre-and-wool knits, and outerwear combining Suri alpaca with wool. Fine merino wool brings softness to pieces worn close to the skin. Yak fibre contributes warmth, while Suri alpaca adds lustre and fluidity to outerwear. The choice of yarn, blend and construction allows these qualities to take different forms.

Natural Ease also depends on the less visible work of pattern-making. Softened shoulder lines, eased armholes and seamless knitwear address how clothing rests against the body and moves with it. Selected reversible and adjustable pieces offer additional ways to wear a garment as routines and preferences change.

In its interview with INSIS, "Why 'Rooting' in Time Is Fashion's Most Radical Choice," Fashion Law Journal examines how the brand translates its ideas into decisions about materials, development, pricing and fit. The conversation gives practical context to Natural Ease, connecting the feel of a finished garment with the work involved in making it.

Asymmetric Pants and a subtle Chinese influence

The INSIS Asymmetric Pants are a signature expression of this approach. Their off-centre fronts and balanced proportions give everyday trousers a distinctive silhouette, with related designs developed in different fabrics and lengths.

Within this design language, the curved detail of the angled fly front draws inspiration from traditional Chinese architecture. That reference becomes a line in the pattern and a change in the proportions of the garment. Its origin can be understood through the construction, while the trousers remain easy to combine with a contemporary wardrobe.

The INSIS Asymmetric Wide-leg Pants feature an asymmetric wrap front, front pleats and curved side seams in brushed twill. The wider range also includes cotton-linen and wool-blend trousers, adapting the brand's interest in asymmetry to different textures and wearing needs.

This is how INSIS approaches subtle Chinese design: architectural references and an attention to material enter the structure of the clothing. A curve, a fold or an altered proportion can carry cultural meaning through a detail that feels familiar in everyday wear.

Time, Nature and Body

ELLE Italia's feature on INSIS explores the brand through Time, Nature and Body, connecting its approach to materials and construction with the everyday experience of wearing clothes. These ideas give context to Natural Ease: the feel of a fabric, the freedom to move, and the place a garment can hold in a wardrobe over time.

INSIS develops selected styles across seasons, revisiting fabrics, construction and fit. This continuity allows familiar pieces to evolve and gives wearers the opportunity to return to shapes that work for them. Natural Ease extends into this longer relationship with clothing: finding pieces that can accompany changing circumstances without demanding a new wardrobe for each one.

The brand's cultural participation brings these interests into a wider conversation. In September 2026, INSIS took part as a co-creator of The Third Shore's founding event in Venice, where cinema, science, art and craftsmanship came together. ELLE Italia's report on The Third Shore provides the context for that gathering and its exchanges across disciplines.

For INSIS, questions about materials, making and cultural knowledge have a direct connection to clothing. They inform both its product development and its expression, "Clothing, for being, for becoming"—an invitation for wearers to find their own relationship with what they wear.
