Fully Rugged LaptopsFully rugged computers such as rugged laptops or rugged notebooks have been designed from the ground up for use in outdoor, dusty or mobile conditions. Every component, and even the placement of those components, has been carefully considered. Fully rugged computers can handle a spray of water from any direction due to their "sealed nature". This sealing also keeps out dust, dirt, sand, salt, moisture, heat and cold. Also, rugged computers often come with display screens that can be viewed in outdoor lighting conditions. |

Semi-Rugged LaptopsSemi Rugged Laptops or Semi Rugged Notebooks are typically commercial computers, with standard, off-the-shelf components, that have been purposely and significantly enhanced for rugged use. This ruggedization normally entails a magnesium case, a shock or gel-mounted hard disk drive and a spill-proof keyboard. |
|
Business Rugged LaptopsBusiness Rugged Laptops are designed for road-warriors, but not necessarily for in-field, in-vehicle, or outdoor use. They have shock-mounted hard disk drives and magnesium casings, but are not sealed against the elements and can only handle a drop of 18 inches or less. |

Rugged Tablet PCsA Rugged Tablet PC is different from a rugged laptop in two primary ways. One, rugged tablets do not have a built-in keyboard; they always have a touch-screen display for input and moving the cursor. And secondly, rugged tablets do not have a built-in media drive such as a floppy, CD or DVD drive. Rugged Tablet PCs are designed to be lightweight and carried in one hand. Rugged tablets are thus easier to use and handle than a rugged laptop which normally requires a surface to set the computer down while in use. |
|
All Rugged UMPCs & HandheldsRugged UMPCs are used like rugged tablet PCs but they are even smaller and lighter. The smallest tablet PC has an 8.4" display, whereas a rugged UMPC has a 4-5" display. A rugged UMPC differs from a rugged handheld PC or a PDA because it can run full-blown Windows operating system, not a scaled down version. Rugged handheld PCs are even smaller than a rugged UMPC and typically run Windows Mobile & are almost always completely sealed against the outdoor elements and dusty conditions and can handle being dropped from a height of 4 feet or less |
|
Rugged Fixed Mount ComputerA fixed-mount PC is designed to be mounted to something or on something and to stay there. Fixed-mount PC's do not have internal batteries; therefore they cannot be carried around away from an AC outlet or a vehicle battery. There are two typical applications for a fixed-mounted computer. One is in a factory or industrial environment where the computer is mounted to the wall or to a piece of equipment for monitoring/control. The second application is in or on a vehicle or any mobile conveyance. |
