With so much data at hand, rugged, portable computing devices have become a necessity to keep warfighters up to date. With portable form factors, such as tablets and smartphones, warfighters can access the information they need where and when they need it. Rugged, portable computing devices enable warfighters to stay in touch with their colleagues without being a burden. These systems are lightweight, rugged, secure, and suitable for a wide variety of demanding environmental conditions. http://www.militaryaerospace.com/articles/print/volume-24/issue-1/technology-focus/... 12/02/2015 The changing technology landscape: rugged, portable computing for the modern warri ... Page 2 of 11 Smartphones enable individual warfighters to access the military network, providing them with situational awareness and communications. Laptop demands drop off In the recent past, rugged laptop computers were considered essential for the network-centric battlefield, but today these devices often are considered to be too large and heavy for fast-moving military forces. "I think laptops are kind of going away a bit," says Tim Quinn, managing partner for Ascent Rugged Mobile in San Diego. "The only reason you would use a laptop now is for the keyboard. They're too expensive now compared to the tablet. Their LCD [liquid crystal display] technology is old. The only reason you would use it is for a keyboard." Warfighters need to access information quickly, which tablet computer and smartphone technology offer at a lower cost than laptops. Processing power is not as important at the tactical edge as is the ability to access and process data. The ability to provide an infantryman with a portable device he already understands, such as a touch-screen tablet or smartphone, is more important than the advantage in processing power that laptops bring. ALL ACCESS SPONSORS Rugged tablets and smartphones View the 2014 Buyer's Guide Now! With the popularity of tablets in the consumer market, tablet technology has advanced at a rapid pace in the military. Tablets have several uses for defense and aerospace customers, especially where tablet users can dock the device and use it to view information from another system while adding touch-screen capabilities. For maintenance, tablets can plug into a vehicle and read system information, while running programs. The user then can carry the tablet to another vehicle and use it the same way. Tablets also are useful for those who require more processing power and a larger screen size, but still need to stay mobile. "More of the leadership folks would have tablets because they need more real estate to do data," says Quinn. "They usually aren't out tactically alone; they have a place to set it." Smartphones in the military often function as tablets, but with additional means of communications. Rugged smartphones not only can use the same applications as a tablet, but they also can communicate with carrier networks http://www.militaryaerospace.com/articles/print/volume-24/issue-1/technology-focus/... 12/02/2015 The changing technology landscape: rugged, portable computing for the modern warri ... Page 3 of 11 and satellites, while a rugged tablet often will communicate only with wireless networks. Rugged smartphones also provide cost savings when compared to tablets. "In the military, what's going on is they're looking to do more with less," says Quinn. "It's a phone and computer all in one. It's a cost reduction and it's multi- functional." By combining a computing device and a communications device, the military can save money while still offering the functionality warfighters need.

Blickenstorfer; photography by Carol Cotton Getac introduced the rugged 10-inch UX10 tablet in 2019 to meet the challenges faced by emergency serv- ice and public safety personnel, but suitable for other demanding applications in utilities, field services, man- ufacturing and more. Implemented as a “detachable laptop,” the UX10 can be used either as a tablet or with an optional keyboard dock. The UX10 further shines with an all quad-core 8th generation Intel Core proces- sor lineup of powerful CPUs. Getac’s strong answer to Panasonic The UX10 is Getac’s answer to the Panasonic Tough- book 20, just as Getac’s larger K120 competes with Panasonic’s Toughbook 33. All are hybrids consisting of a tablet and an optional detachable keyboard that adds functionality and connectivity. Getac bills the UX10 as a “rugged tablet with enhanced versatility.” With the UX10, Getac not only has a direct com- petitor to the Toughbook 20 but also another true hy- brid, which represent a growing market segment.
