Duo-Touch
II Makes Mobile Computing More Viewable, Powerful, and Secure
 August 20, 2008 - Handheld Systems Inc announced today the immediate
availability of the General Dynamics Itronix Duo-Touch® II Rugged
Tablet PC. The Duo-Touch II is the latest in a long line of
fully-rugged Tablet PCs designed specifically to enable secure, reliable,
mobile computing in environmentally-challenging work environments.
Combining powerful processing power with an ergonomic tablet design for
one-handed operation, the Duo-Touch II enables rugged, high-performance
computing for mobile professionals in industries such as surveying, field
service, aviation, agriculture, and engineering.
"Today’s mobile workers need rugged, lightweight computers that
enable them to be connected and productive regardless of where their job
may take them," said Ben Thacker, vice president of strategic
marketing for General Dynamics Itronix. "The Duo-Touch II is the
result of powerful technology developments that ultimately deliver
superior screen viewability, processing performance, and security in a
light and small, yet rigorously rugged tablet PC."
DynaVue™ Display Technology
The Duo-Touch II features the award winning, patent-pending Dynavue
display technology, developed by General Dynamics Itronix. DynaVue
utilizes an innovative touchscreen design which increases outdoor
viewability and fine detail definition, even in direct sunlight, by
eliminating the internal reflections which wash out display clarity in
other touchscreen displays. DynaVue technology provides the critical
balance between brightness and contrast, resulting in optimum viewing for
outdoor work environments as well as indoor and in-vehicle use, without
the sacrifices of diminished battery life and processor performance that
come from simply increasing screen brightness. DynaVue is also the only
display technology on the market which meets the MIL-HDBK-87213 Rev A
military standard for electronically generated airborne (cockpit) displays
for direct sunlight viewability.
Advanced Processing Power
The Duo-Touch II Tablet PC supports high-performance computing
applications by employing a powerful, ultra-low voltage Intel Core Duo
Processor U2500 at 1.2 GHz with 2MB of L2 cache memory. Available with up
to 2048MB of DDR2 RAM, the Duo-Touch II provides high performance without
compromising battery life.
Fingerprint Security
To increase computing security, the Duo-Touch II offers an optional
fingerprint scanner to ensure systems can only be used by their authorized
operators. This feature reduces the risk of data being compromised should
the tablet be lost or stolen.
Wireless Support
With multiple integrated wireless technologies, including support for
EDGE/GPRS/UMTS/HSDPA/ HSUPA, EV-DO, 802.11 a/g/n, Bluetooth, and GPS
networks, the Duo-Touch II can support up to three RF modems and GPS
simultaneously. An upgradeable, modular design lets users configure the
Duo-Touch II in various combinations, providing unparalleled flexibility.
Dual-Mode Touchscreen
To ensure reliable computing with either a pen or the touch of a finger,
the Duo-Touch II is equipped with both an active digitizer and passive
touchscreen modes. The active digitizer allows for accurate signature
capture and adding notes to drawings or maps, while the passive
touchscreen mode can be used for simple navigation in Windows and other
custom applications which utilize user-friendly kiosk-style selection
"buttons".
