US-based tablet computing solutions provider Xplore Technologies is pleased to announce that it has been named as an honouree at the CES 2018 Innovation Awards.
The XSLATE R12 rugged tablet PC with Intel® PCIe Solid State Drive was the only rugged mobile device to score above the threshold set in the Computer Hardware and Components category.
Products entered in this prestigious program are judged by a preeminent panel of independent industrial designers, independent engineers and members of the trade media to honour outstanding design and engineering in cutting edge consumer electronics products.
The Windows®-powered Xplore XSLATE R12 two-in-one tablet computer was evaluated on its engineering, aesthetic and design qualities, intended use / function and user value, unique / novel features present.
It was also evaluated on how the design and innovation of the product directly compares to other products in the marketplace.
Xplore vice-president of marketing John Graff said: "We are extremely thrilled that the Xplore XSLATE R12 was the exclusive rugged mobile computer recognised by the CES 2018 Innovation Awards committee for its top-of-the-line computing capabilities and unmatched aesthetics.
"This high-performance, two-in-one tablet was designed using an extensive amount of customer feedback and, as such, offers much more than traditional detachable notebooks or convertibles."
Designed specifically for mobile professionals that split their time between extreme outdoor conditions and the office, the sleek but compact XSLATE R12 comes standard with a number of detachable components, including a Companion Keyboard, a range of processor options to meet varying workload requirements and a full sunlight- readable HD display that’s the brightest in its class.

Optional SlateMate™ bolt-on modules can also add a barcode scanner and RFID reader.
The integrated eight-megapixel documentation camera and Xplore’s XCapture Pro camera application can easily be used for high-quality workflow documentation.
Additionally, the XSLATE R12’s ten-point capacitive multi-touch interface equals the smooth and effortless capabilities that users have come to expect from consumer devices and comes standard with a digitiser pen for more precision work.
