1916 Nexcom’s ruggedised vehicle mount computer VMC 3000 series is designed for use in heavy-duty vehicles and, says the company, can increase productivity and safety within harsh environments. Featuring scalable computing power, 10.4” touch screen and a range of wireless communication technologies and combining a robust design and IP65-compliant enclosure, the VMC 3000 series can gather, display, transmit and receive information to help optimise route planning, increase situational awareness, and monitor vehicle status, making it ideal for use within a variety of rugged vehicles with locations such as construction sites, mines, quarries or warehouses.

The VMC 3000 series offers two levels of computing performance, while the built-in GPS receiver allows for Bluetooth, wi-fi and 3G expansions. 

The device has ten configurable function keys for user-specified tasks and LED indicators for battery voltage and ambient temperature monitoring.  The VMC 3000 series clearly displays information outdoors, even in direct sunlight.
