The frames of these devices are shock and vibration resistant. All these features enable them to be more functional and efficient on the field. The industrial tablet is designed in a way that they can take a lot of abuse such as water, dust, and extreme temperatures. It’s not just the external features but the internal features have evolved too.

It allows for easy transition for workers from field work to desk job. Data acquisition has also become easier with features such as built-in-barcode scanners and radio-frequency identification readers.
