Executive Summary For evolutionary and various outdoor applications, in addition to robustness and reliability on nature, most of handheld devices may not fully satisfy with the specific needs and expectations on the business operations now and in the near future. Many enterprise and professional users only can change their internal processes or have no choice to select the “most similar product”. It also means they have to sacrifice some efficiency on their daily works.
2 some specific hardware interfaces, including UART, I C, and SPI. FlexiConn™ enables a whole new approach to the product and business opportunity development. The major concept is the Collaboration between all stakeholders from end users, designers, and manufacturers. The requirement or specification can be directly defined by end user, developed by designer and produced by manufacturer. All communication is 100% transparent and TM surrounded how to ensure FlexiConn 100% to satisfy the needs.
Implementation To achieve flexible and still one-piece design uncompromisingly, FlexiConn™ of PS336 provides the integration guide with the following contents, including mechanical design guide, hardware design guide, and software development kits.
Mechanical FlexiConn™ presents as a proprietary connector with multiple interfaces which is able to be fully integrated with Getac platforms. For reference design, you can leverage the 3D drawing file in this Developing Kits or contact your Getac account manager for further assistance.
