Truck On Board Computer

Commercial Vehicle PC Vehicle computers are ideal for organisations that run a transport fleet that needs to be equipped with dedicated PC hardware. A wide range of vehicle computer systems are compatible with all types of vehicle, including cars, vans, buses, coaches, trucks and trailers. PC devices could be used in a wide variety of industries, including haulage, passenger vehicles, utilities, security, executive transport and emergency services. Computer systems offer a workforce access to the most valuable business tool of all – an internet-enabled PC in their vehicle. In the automotive environment no other mobile IT device can match a fixed car computer’s functionality and versatility. Portable devices, which are often very fragile, are constantly handled by the user and are therefore much more likely to be damaged, either during use or transportation, An in vehicle PC itself is never handled by the user, reducing the risk of accidental damage to almost zero. The only part of the system that is normally handled by the user is the touchscreen display. In the unlikely event that this fails it can be swapped for a replacement very rapidly. The performance of wireless communication methods such as 3G and Wi-Fi depends to a large extent on the antennas. Not only are the antennas in mobile devices designed primarily for small size rather than performance, but they are also located inside the mobile device, which in turn is located inside the vehicle. The vehicle, of course, is mostly made of metal, a very effective blocker of electromagnetic waves. Our vehicle PCs support a range of external antennas for 3G/4G and Wi-Fi, including high-gain roof-mounted models. These antennas are designed for performance rather than small size, and because they are located outside the vehicle they do not suffer from the reduced performance that will affect any antenna located inside the vehicle. In Vehicle PC’s are designed specifically for use in vehicles, and carry the automotive “e-mark” certification that is required by law for all vehicle-based equipment. Featuring highly configurable internal intelligent automotive power supplies, Commercial Vehicle PC’s can turn themselves on and off automatically with the vehicle ignition, and do not reboot when the vehicle’s engine is cranked during starting. CV PC’s are made using the highest quality components, and carry a 2-year warranty as standard. In Vehicle PC systems are already in use in commercial vehicle fleets in the UK, an airport bus operation use the PC for passenger management while a refuse company has equipped a 70 truck fleet for computerised job dispatch and a tracking system. Bespoke software for vehicle safety checks and employer communication for health & safety are options. As the uses of a PC are endless, think of how a vehicle PC could improve efficiency, productivity, Safety & your business!
