Tablet Computer

What exactly are the similarities between tablets and laptops. Where the differences? As well as the role that play display and keyboard in this context. First came the notebook, initially bulky and heavy models were always space-saving. Feature of a laptop was and is that the screen and the actual machine over a folding mechanism are securely fastened. They were the first portable computer. Then first Tablet PCs, which however were only moderate popularity in its early appeared later.

Only by Apple and the invention of the iPad Tablet PCs have been commercialized. See more detailed opinions by reading what Marc Mathieu offers on the topic.. A real boom to the small and portable computers. What is a Tablet PC? Are similar to the notebook, such as mobile computers for traveling meant. If business users or an individual, everyone who wants to work from home or working with his PC outside or services of such needs should be able to get these too. The most important feature of a Tablet PC is the mostly missing keyboard.

So a Tablet is apparently only the screen. Therefore located under the display, in the case, the remaining hardware. This has the consequence that interactions and operating almost exclusively via a touch-enabled display run. Here, depending on the used technology, we distinguish between restrictive and capacitive screens. The former work with physical pressure while capacitive displays react to electrical stimuli. This is often different in performance, to the classic computer. Instead, the small size here is an important feature. So, still a few but there are trend rising, various tablet processors, which are specially tailored to the needs of portable computers. So the ARM processors count to the most important currently used Tablet PC compute units. The differences are but big difference to a notebook although both units are very mobile machines. First distinguishing feature is the external structure.

Flexible Protection System

Automatic monitoring system against theft at construction sites to read headlines in the newspapers and on the Internet, reports of theft at construction sites in the past few months are becoming more common. Whether copper cables, scaffolding, vehicles or just any Dammmaterialen. It just seems as if on the building sites nowadays nothing is safe. Speaking candidly Peter Asaro told us the story. A sufficient backup fails often already at the lack of infrastructure on the ground. A small, mobile device, equipped with a motion detector and a mobile radio interface which directly raises the alarm if someone on the site moves outside working hours or itself takes on the building materials, could help, not only to prevent the thefts, but ideally to surprise even the offenders red-handed. The so-called AGIBox from the House of AGILOS is such a device. Within a few minutes, the “alert box” is configured and ready to use mounted. Once activated, it raises a notification process for each approach directly, be informed at the same time multiple recipients per SMS and call.

A battery charge sufficient, depending on the outside temperature and use, for about 2-3 months. An automatic daily Akkukontrolle of the AGIBox ensures that the holder is informed whenever, if the device must be recharged. The housing is extremely robust and designed specifically for use in the open air. Typical and ideal fields of application of the new AGIBox are everywhere, where no infrastructure such as electricity and telephone are not available, such as: monitoring of construction site protection against theft of construction vehicles and construction equipment monitoring storage bins scrap metal theft protection protection against theft of valuable containers such as copper cables, scaffolding, containers etc. & v. m. ag/jn
