Rugged Tablet Computers

Rugged industrial tablet computers are strongly made and capable of withstanding rough handling. The operating conditions specified for a rugged device indicate its level of ruggedness. Operating conditions include operating and storage temperature, maximum operating and storage altitude, and relative humidity. Only Getac manufactures rugged tablets down to the chassis. Several of their tablets have been engineered to survive drops, shocks, rain, vibration, dust, liquid and more.

Industries Served by Rugged Tablets

Rugged tablets can be utilized in a variety of industries including State/Local Government, Education (K-12 and Higher Education), Public Safety (Police, Fire, EMS), Healthcare, Industrial Manufacturing, Energy/Environment, and Transport/Logistics. Our rugged tablets offer several advantages in the field, from enhanced security measures to protect information and prevent attacks to increased computing ability to handle large engineering applications. We also feature both rugged Android and Windows tablets, letting you choose the operating system that makes the most sense for your application. The following list of industries cover the specific applications of rugged devices in more detail:

• Agriculture – Collect and analyze soil samples, track livestock with RFID, manage farm inventory, run irrigation control systems and more.
• Construction – Run projects from the build site, communicate real-time with central HQ, access blueprints without damaging, run analyses onsite enabling immediate direction and action based on results.
• Environmental – Biologists, scientists and environmental consultants: Collect sea ice samples, use GPS data to accelerate triage of oil spill sites, inspect and monitor stormwater assets, etc.
• Field Service – Schedule service calls, navigate with GPS, manage team schedules, update work orders, track inventory, enter time onsite, sync field measurements and meter readings in real-time.
• Forestry – Cruise timber, navigate using dedicated GPS, map, image, report, and analyze data for wildlife surveying, silviculture, and forest management.
• GIS/Mapping – Get more done while in the field. Gather and analyze GIS data, create maps, and communicate real-time even from remote locations.
• Healthcare – Hospital staff, with patients, in the lab: Efficiently and securely collect, share, and monitor patient data. Move quickly, not worrying about shakes, vibrations, drops, shocks, cart crashes. Decontaminate and sterilize devices from patient to patient.
• Industrial – Send data wirelessly in real-time, create reports and sync automatically with office technology, integrate with onsite machinery for status tracking, etc.
• Logistics – Inventory, distribution, and supply chain management.
• Manufacturing – Inspection, quality and inventory control, machinery maintenance, order tracking.
• Mining – Streamline data management and operations: timekeeping, vehicle tracking, maintenance logging, supplies deliveries,real-time communications with those off-site. Perform in the face of vibrations, dust, moisture, and temperature fluctuations.
