Motion Computing and Intel are looking to carve out a spot in the health care market with a new tablet PC.
The tablet PC maker announced that it has teamed with Intel to produce a new mobile computer, dubbed the C5 MCA (mobile clinical assistant), that will be targeted strictly at health care professionals, such as doctors, nurses and other hospital workers.
In addition to its Intel-based architecture and tablet design, the C5 will include a number of features specifically geared toward the health care market.
Inside, the C5 uses Intel's Centrino mobile technology platform with a Core Solo U1400 processor, which runs at 1.2GHz and offers 2MB of L2 cache memory and a 533MHz front side bus. The tablet also offers an Intel 945GM chip set with an Extreme Graphics controller, which allows the image to rotate with the screen, a 10.4-inch LCD display, 512MB of DDR2 (double data rate) memory and a hard disk drive with a maximum memory of 60GB.
