Direct to destination
Satellite navigation and route optimization applications reduce the time to delivery as well as the distance driven. Driving instructions can be given in both voice and graphics using digital maps. The driver will not drive around and search for the destination.
Manoeuvring support
The mobile computer system can be used to display pictures from reversing cameras and if needed, an assistant tells how to manoeuvre. The assistant and cameras can also help control gripping arms with centimetre precision.
Security
Safer trip is facilitated by applications making emergency calls in case of an accident even if the driver is injured. Road descriptions can be sent instantly to ambulances and rescue personnel, getting them to the accident faster and perhaps saving lives.
After hours
After the drivers spell of work or in queues, mobile computers can provide internet access and enable advertising, entertainment like games, TV and digital video. |
If a specialist's help is needed the ambulance will be redirected to the relevant hospital. PC applications can send patient data from ambulances, monitor EKG, respiratory values, blood pressure and other patient data. A diagnosis can be made from the hospital and treatment can begin and surgery can be prepared when the patient is still in the ambulance.
Fire brigades
Time to reach the fire site is reduced if the computer in the fire engine starts to receive data from the alarm central the second a fire alarm goes off. Electronic maps can be sent and the driver gets instructions to find the best way to the fire site. Via satellite link, the computer can get building designs with graphical information about explosive and other dangerous goods. Getting building design usually takes minutes - information which can save many firemen's lives.
Rescue vehicles
Imagine driving in fog or a blizzard where visibility is barely a foot in front of you. GPS navigation is invaluable in blizzards and bad weather. The computer will display a map and give driving instructions both in voice and graphics using digital maps. It will warn for height differences, rocks etc. In JLT computers mounted in rescue vehicles, information type of applications facilitates aid during natural disasters like floods, blizzards, earthquakes and avalanches as well as during motor sport events where accidents can occur.
A rugged computer in tough situations can save lives. Using a standard laptop for critical applications might reduce the initial investment in hardware but jeopardize both lives and vehicles.
Train conductors taking cash or electronic payments, bus drivers following complicated or changing routes, municipal mechanics using diagnostic tools and referencing trouble-shooting manuals, these are only a few examples of how employees in the world of public transportation are finding their jobs easier by using rugged mobile computers. |
