DT311Y Series rugged tablets with Windows 10 IoT Enterprise purpose-built for U.S. Naval shipyards with partner Akira Technologies

SAN JOSE & AFCEA WEST show SAN DIEGO, Calif. — February 14, 2023 — DT Research, the leading designer and manufacturer of purpose-built computing solutions for vertical markets, today announced the company's third consecutive contract award for the U.S. Naval shipyards. The DT311Y rugged tablets will continue to be deployed at several shipyards on the east coast (Norfolk and Portsmouth), the west coast (Puget Sound), and Hawaii (Pearl Harbor). DT Research secured this three-year award in conjunction with Akira Technologies, a DT Research technology partner.

The DT311Y rugged tablet as well as many other DT Research tablet and laptop models will be showcased in the company's booth 1537 at the AFCEA WEST 2023 show, February 14-16, at the San Diego Convention Center.

"We are proud that our technology continues to meet the needs of the U.S. Navy," said Daw Tsai, president of DT Research. "Our strong engineering resources allows us to tailor our rugged computing products based on the feedback from valued customers; we listen and create a continuous improvement cycle."

The DT311Y rugged tablets feature 11.6-inch high-bright capacitive touch screens, Intel Core I series processors, Microsoft® Windows® 10/11 IoT Enterprise operating systems, IP65 rating, and MIL-STD- 810G/H and MIL-STD-461F certifications. The built-in smartcard/Common Access card (CAC) reader allows each user to instantly access data based on their clearance level, which can be directly read from an existing system.

DT311Y users gain continuous operation through hot-swappable batteries and range of battery charger accessories, which eliminate downtime as tablets are passed on shift-to-shift. Built-in Wi-Fi and optional 4G LTE/AWS and long-range (1000 ft) BT creates a reliable portal for real-time data sharing from almost any location. Optional front and back cameras, and optional 2D barcode scanner streamlines data capture and improves accuracy. DT311Y accessories include a docking keyboard and cradle, as well as mounts for vehicles, forklifts, and VESA arms, which improves ease-of-use and makes placement flexible.
