Sept. 20, 2018

Powered by an Intel Atom x7-Z8750 processor with support for dual OS, AIM-68 features a 2-megapixel front camera and 5-megapixel rear camera with auto-focus, 4 GB of memory, 64 GB of storage, and a 10-in. WUXGA IPS full HD LCD display with scratch-resistant Corning Gorilla Glass 3, and multi-touch PCAP control.

 

The high-brightness display ensures readability in direct sunlight for outdoor applications. The inclusion of Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, WWAN, and NFC wireless communication technologies supports real-time data transmissions and GPS tracking. With its wide operating temperature range (-10 - 50°C) and IP65 rating for protection from dust and water ingress, the tablet has the durability to withstand operation in extreme in-vehicle/outdoor environments. The embedded hot-swappable 26 WHr battery supports 5 - 6 hours of operation and can be recharged via a docking station.

 

In addition to the standard I/O, which includes 1 x micro HDMI, 1 x USB 3.0, 1 x combo audio jack, 1 x DC-in jack (19 V), 1 x SIM card reader, and 1 x micro SD card reader, AIM-68 offers 2 extension ports (via 1 x AIM extension 14-pin pogo connector and 1 x AIM dock 16-pin pogo connector) for integrating diverse peripheral modules. These optional extension modules and accessories include an in-vehicle docking station, VESA mount dock, 1D/2D barcode scanner, UHF RFID reader, and RJ45+COM module that can be integrated to provide customizable application-specific solutions for mobile field service, warehouse and logistics, and in-vehicle fleet management.

 

To satisfy field service and fleet management demands for real-time management and data transmissions, AIM-68 is not only equipped with 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capabilities, but also 4G/LTE and GPS technology to support asset tracking for resource and dispatch management. The built-in NFC reader, front and rear cameras, as well as optional 1D/2D barcode scanner and other add-on modules offer multiple tools for easy data collection to optimize operations.

 

The tablet can be equipped with a wide variety of application-oriented peripherals, such as a 1D/2D barcode scanner or RJ45+COM module, to extend the system functions according to specific usage requirements. Additionally, three types of docking stations (desk, VESA mount, and in-vehicle docking stations) have been developed for the tablet to enable deployment in different operating environments. These docking stations feature additional I/O ports and can recharge the tablet to extend the system usage period.

 

The AIM-68 tablet offers dual OS support for both Windows10 IoT Enterprise and Android 6.0. This allows customers to select the most appropriate OS according to specific application demands and usage behaviors and deploy unique application software. Furthermore, to deliver high-performance computing, AIM-68 is also equipped with Advantech’s industrial-grade Android OS, which provides a reliable application framework and user-friendly tool for conducting remote control and diagnostics, enterprise management, OTA programming, and module extension operations.
