Uniquely designed rugged convertible laptops with high capacity batteries and night vision displays provide a versatile computing solutionideal for mission-critical environments

SAN JOSE, Calif. — January 11, 2021 — DT Research, a leading designer and manufacturer of purpose-built computing solutions for vertical markets, today announced the new LT300 line of fully-rugged, 360 convertible laptops designed for ultimate versatility, durability and reliability in harsh conditions. Each laptop has an antimicrobial enclosure to inhibit the growth of microorganisms on the surface of the unit. The LT320, LT330 and LT350 laptops have a 360 degree rotating display purpose-built for military, first responder, law enforcement, field service, and warehouse environments with IP65, MIL-STD-810G/H, MIL-STD-461F ratings, EPEAT certification and TAA compliant.

"We have heard from customers who need a fully rugged laptop that can easily convert into a tablet with enough battery life for mission-critical situations," said Daw Tsai, president of DT Research. "Our convertible laptops are military standard rugged with a uniquely designed display that rotates 360 degrees to smoothly transform into a tablet rather than having to detach and reattach the keyboard, which can be very cumbersome in confined environments. We also overcame the insufficient battery life that is prevalent with other convertible laptops by including standard dual high capacity batteries that are hot-swappable for continuous operation."

The DT Research LT300 series of convertible laptops are high-performance computers that run the Windows® 10 IoT Enterprise operating system on Intel® 10th Generation Core™ i5 or i7 processors and have full-size, backlit keyboards. Models are available in three sizes of sunlight-readable, capacitive touch displays: 11.6 inch (LT320), 13.3 inch (LT330) and 15.6 inch (LT350); and include digital pen support.

Unique 360 Convertible Design
Unlike other convertible laptops on the market, which require users to detach the keyboard in order to turn it into a tablet, the DT Research LT300 series laptops allow users to simply flip the display 360 degrees to the back of the keyboard - easily transforming the unit into a tablet. This innovative design makes the transition from laptop to tablet possible within confined or crowded spaces, such as a plane tail section or in an engine room.

Purpose-built for Mission-Critical Environments
The LT300 convertible laptops have antimicrobial enclosures to control infection while also delivering military standard IP65-rated for water and dust resistance; MIL-STD-810G/H for shock and vibration protection; MIL-STD-461F for EMI and EMC tolerance; and HERO (Hazard of Electromagnetic Radiation to Ordnance) tested. The LT330 and LT350 models come standard with dual high capacity 11.4V, 5400mAh batteries that are hot-swappable for 24/7 operation.

Advanced Identity Verification and Security
With a built-in smart card/CAC reader as well as optional IR/RGB front and back cameras for facial recognition, the LT300 series convertible laptops provide advanced identity verification for secure data access. Optional night vision supports viewing of MIL-STD-3009 class B NVIS mode, offering another layer of security for light-sensitive situations.
