High-resolution 10.4” TFT touch screen device for wireless Information, Productivity and Business Intelligence applications

TOKYO/PARIS, September 2010 – TOSHIBA TEC unveiled their compact and ultra-silent WILLPOS C10 semi-industrial PC at Equipmag 2010 to cater for a growing number of mission-critical mobile applications in manufacturing, transportation, retail and energy-related industries.

The WILLPOS C10 rugged and drip-proof touch screen device provides ample benefits for diversified mobile applications and is part of the company’s range of durable semi-industrial PCs designed for cost-effective operations that require maximum resilience.

TOSHIBA TEC hardware offers you a fast path to peace of mind and a positive payback thanks to the innovative award-winning designs of the company’s R&D team.

A fan-less and compact design without moving parts when using the Sold State Disk storage option to reduce maintenance costs and increase durability, the WILLPOS C10 is built for a minimum of five years of operations in harsh service environments.

Ready to accelerate the efficiency of information assets in a wide variety of vertical markets, the WILLPOS C10 currently runs on Microsoft Windows and SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 operating systems.

The WILLPOS C10 is powered by an Intel Atom 1.66 GHz CPU that has low power consumption and low heat emissions, which make this compact platform ideal for industrial environments.

The TFT touch screen design also comes with a built-in thermal printer (58 or 80 mm width) for use as a check-in terminal, an information point as well as a regular POS system. The quiet, graphical thermal auto-cutting printer with easy loading mechanism is another example of smart design to accelerate efficiency.

A wide range of communication devices and Internet-based services for online advertising and reservation are just a few of the mobile applications for which the WILLPOS C10 is designed.

The TOSHIBA TEC WILLPOS C10 is on display at Equipmag 2010 and will be available in Europe from March 2011.

At Toshiba, we believe that Innovation is a Journey, not a Destination.
