Unihertz Atom will be the world’s smallest rugged 4G smartphone | Handheld Delivery Device

And, it’s spreading. The Tier 1 companies that are doing everything they can have moved through multiple generations of scanning, edge computing and Industry 4.0-style analytics. The big push now, according to Honeywell’s Stubbs, is adoption among small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs).

Transportation and logistics powerhouse UPS Inc. has upgraded the navigation tool used in the handheld devices its drivers carry, and says the software could boost package delivery service levels while reducing miles driven, fuel consumed, and carbon emitted.

Elsewhere, companies are working on creating Tricorder type hardware with a focus on infectious disease: the Q-POC, made by QuantumDx, is expected to launch next year, and brings handheld diagnostics for bacterial and viral infections. The idea of the Q-POC is putting short-read genetic sequencing into a device the size of a smartphone: with a sample of bodily fluid, the reader could pick up not only the nature of an infection, like TB, but also its resistance to particular drugs. The technology already exists and is in common use, but shrinking it down to a device that can fit in a pocket is QuantumDx’s real challenge.

Garant has two different blue structured light scanners in the shop. For jobs requiring higher resolution than the Eva, de Cosson can use the Artec Spider structured blue light scanner. The trade-off is a slower and more expensive scan. “That could certainly be a limitation for some people,” he says. “But the scan is much, much higher resolution. The blue light scanner from Artec has a point accuracy up to about 50 microns and a resolution up to 100 microns. So, that’s definitely a big difference.”

The additional support will be dealt in one-year increments for up to three years and support will be sold on a per-device basis, rather than the per-user approach Microsoft has pushed for Windows 10 licensing. Prices "will increase each year," Spataro confirmed. However, Microsoft did not reveal Windows 7 ESU’s costs or the exact nature of what would be provided.

Another issue with the GPD is that they are not pushing the screen size down like this device is. In order for it to double as a phone it needs to stay small. If these ARM chips are all we have to look forward to, I’ll hedge my bets on Windows on ARM.

The Global Rugged Handheld Devices Market Report 2018 primarily focuses on the inclusive research study on the prevailing scenario of the Rugged Handheld Devices market worldwide. This study improves the business productivity and Rugged Handheld Devices market forecast of the industry. It gives the information about the Rugged Handheld Devices market size for each category during the forecasting period from 2018 to 2025.

On the outside, the Armor 6 has a a rather decent looking chassis featuring a die cast frame covered with protective rubber and red or grey metallic inlays. The enclosure is rated to handle drops from 1.2 meters, submersion into water (up to 1.5 meters for up to 60 minutes), thermal shocks, corrosive environments, and so on. Meanwhile, framing a 6.2-inch 2246×1080 LCD display protected using Corning’s Gorilla Glass 5, the Armor 6 is generally pretty large and heavy: it is 160 mm tall, 13.3 mm thick, and weighs 228 grams. All of which makes the Armor 6 a lot larger than standard consumer smartphones, but is fairly typical for this market segment.

UPS has invested aggressively in its Global Smart Logistics Network, which relies on data, analytics and innovative technology to pioneer customer solutions, boost service levels and generate operational efficiencies.

“As you look at needs of consumers and warehouses, many are similar,” Boatner says. “Better speed, better and richer and more intuitive interfaces, IP-68 and ruggedness. A lot of those goals are common.”
