Handheld Group: NAUTIZ eTicket Pro II with Android

Handheld Group, a manufacturer of rugged mobile computers, has announced that its NAUTIZ eTicket Pro II is available with the Android 4.2 operating system. The Nautiz eTicket Pro II is a rugged mobile ticket validation and fare-collection device for the public transportation industry.

The Nautiz eTicket Pro II portable rugged ticketing device and data collector features a built-in Arcontia smart card reader and a high-performance 2D imager. The device weighs just 335 grams (11.8 ounces) and is built for use in harsh outdoor and industrial environmental conditions, including rain, extreme temperatures and bright sunlight.

The Nautiz eTicket Pro II has been deployed by transportation agencies in cities around the world, including Houston, Lisbon and Prague. It has also been deployed with passenger ferry companies like Jadrolinja. By offering the customer’s choice of Android 4.2 or Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5, Handheld will allow even more agencies and users to experience fast and secure ticketing transactions with the Nautiz eTicket Pro II.
 
“Improving efficiency and profitability are two of the Nautiz eTicket Pro II’s greatest talents. But we also know from customer feedback that transit workers find the unit very comfortable to hold and work with. IT departments appreciate its flexibility in reading many types of data. And administers value the extra security provided by two Secure Access Module (SAM) slots,” says Johan Hed, director of product management for Handheld Group.
 
The Nautiz eTicket Pro II has an IP65 ingress protection rating and meets stringent MIL-STD-810G military test standards for overall durability and resistance to humidity, shock, vibrations, drops, salt and extreme temperatures. Multiple connectivity options, including high-powered 3G and Wi-Fi, keep users connected wherever they work, and an integrated u-blox® GPS receiver offers built-in navigation functionality for transit fieldworkers.
