Special tablet for evaluation of measurements

Call

A customer approached us with a requirement to develop a rugged, powerful tablet for a specific industrial application where conventional commercial devices were failing. The focus was on long battery life, wireless charging capability, no mechanical buttons and a rugged design for daily use in a demanding industrial environment.

Our solution

We designed and manufactured a complete customized tablet based on the Allwinner platform with a quad-core ARM Cortex-A7 processor (1.2 GHz) and an integrated graphics unit. Key elements of the solution include:

• Durable construction: aluminium frame and high quality plastic back cover for increased mechanical resistance.
• Full HD display with capacitive multitouch sensor.
• Wireless charging, large battery (9000 mAh), no physical buttons.
• Standard equipment: Wi-Fi, MEMS accelerometer, vibration motor, stereo audio.
• NFC communication: two-way read and write.
• Customized Android OS, including software extensions and client application base.

The development included PCB design, testing, manufacturing and full software integration.

Result

The tablet has been deployed in service, where it has stood up to less gentle handling. Thanks to a fine-tuned system, optimized power consumption and wireless charging, it met even the client’s demanding expectations. It has become a stable platform for further deployment of enterprise software and an example that even mobile devices can be designed completely tailored to real needs.
