Applications
Fire Departments & Rescue
Firefighting and Emergency Medical Services demand reliable, heavy-duty equipment for effective communication and fast data retrieval. ACURA BOLDER and BRICK series of computers are unmatched with respect to reliability, ruggedness and innovative features - therefore the preferred choice of many public safety providers.
ACURA'S MOBILE DATA TERMINALS
THE PREMIUM CHOICE FOR PUBLIC SAFETY PROVIDERS
Crisis management personnel need real time information, quick access to database material, and effective communication links for maximum responsiveness. The most important design parameters of Acura's PowerBrick series of computers, particularly well suited for public safety use, are reliability, ruggedness, modularity, connectivity, and expandability.
PowerBrick meets the most stringent demands of operability under adverse conditions (shock, vibrations, extreme temperatures, dust and moisture), with maximum performance (similar to a state-of-the-art modern desktop system).
PowerBrick-CV unit has a 4 channel 120 fps built-in digital video recorder (DVR). The computers are normally operated from an outdoor-viewable, rugged and splash-proof LCD touch screen monitor. Software applications for crisis management include real time video recording linked to a supervisory vehicle or a server, tracking of emergency vehicles by dispatchers, up-to-date on-line access to street maps and building floor plans, and instant access to databases for review. For example, electronic hazardous materials manuals to control a hazmat situation. Medical information on patients at accident scenes can also immediately be transferred to a hospital while en route.

The PowerBrick and PowerBrick-CV have optional, integrated Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) and Automatic Vehicle Locating (AVL) systems that are valuable emergency response tools for firefighters and EMS personnel. A GPS system allows for quick location of fire or accident scenes without the use of maps. Additionally, the AVL system empowers dispatchers to make optimal decisions by providing continuous updates of the emergency personnel's location . By knowing the exact position of emergency personnel, the scene can efficiently be managed and controlled during any incident that may occur. |
