Rugged PDAs for Scanning and Data Capture
A rugged handheld computer is an Android phone-sized terminal with a built-in barcode scanner, so pickers, drivers and technicians can scan, record and sign off work in one hand. Available with 4.3 and 6 inch screens on Qualcomm processors, sealed to IP65 or IP68 and drop-tested.
Options include hot-swap batteries, 4G, NFC and an ATEX and IECEx Zone 2 model for hazardous areas, suited to warehouses, deliveries, asset tracking and inspection rounds.
