Getac has unveiled the rugged B360X and B360X Pro laptops. Both models are designed to put Edge AI power directly at the service of frontline professionals in public safety and rescue operations.
Emergency responders cannot rely on cloud connectivity to coordinate operations. In disaster zones where communications are completely severed, the Getac B360X becomes an autonomous tactical command center, capable of integrating Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD) systems, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) systems.
Both models feature new Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors and boast a 14-inch LumiBond WUXGA display (1400 nits) with Getac Sunlight Readable technology, ensuring flawless visibility in broad daylight. Its capacitive touchscreen responds with absolute precision even in heavy rain or while wearing work gloves.
Equipped with MIL-STD-810H, MIL-STD-461G certifications and IP66 waterproofing, the B360X and B360X Pro withstand drops of up to 1.8 meters in continuous operation, guaranteeing full operational availability in the most critical moments.
Superior Performance Driven by Edge AI
At the heart of the new B360X and B360X Pro is the Intel Core Ultra 5/7/X7 (Series 3) processor with Intel graphics and Intel AI Boost technology, delivering exceptional multitasking performance, data-intensive workloads, and AI-enhanced applications even when not connected to the cloud. This helps frontline professionals process data locally via Edge AI, make faster on-site decisions, and manage sensitive information more securely.
Additionally, both devices feature a 14-inch LumiBond WUXGA display with Getac Sunlight Readable technology (1400 nits) to deliver exceptional readability and usability. Thanks to their capacitive touch screen, they can be used even with gloves or in the rain.
Greater Versatility, Connectivity, and Security
Designed to offer exceptional on-the-ground versatility, the B360X and B360X Pro come with a full suite of connectivity options, including Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6 as standard, along with the option to add dedicated GPS with L1/L5 bands, 4G LTE and 5G Sub-6 and SA as needed. Customers can also choose from a range of configurable I/O port configurations, including up to two Thunderbolt 4 Type-C ports for high-speed data transfer, while the dual hot-swappable battery supports extended field use between charges.
The B360X and B360X Pro also include security enhancements, such as Windows Hello camera (via a 5 MP front camera), TPM 2.0, smart card reader, a user-replaceable PCIe NVMe SSD, and Getac Disk Wipe standard. Upgrade options include a second SSD (allowing up to 4 TB total storage across two 2 TB drives), an HF RFID reader and a fingerprint reader.
Totally Rugged Protection
Like all Getac fully rugged devices, the B360X and B360X Pro are built to excel in harsh and demanding work environments. They carry MIL-STD-810H, MIL-STD-461G certifications and IP66, and withstand drops of up to 1.8 meters while in use, so they work where many other devices would fail. Optional salt spray (salt fog) resistance certification is also available if required.
B360X Pro: Mission-Ready Technology in a Compact Form Factor
In addition to all of the above, the B360X Pro ships with high-capacity dual batteries as standard, while an optional dedicated graphics processor NVIDIA RTX PRO 500 Blackwell elevates visuals to the next level without affecting processing performance. The B360X Pro also features an optional multimedia bay that can house a third battery or a DVD drive as needed.
The combination of powerful Edge AI technology, rugged reliability and the portable footprint of the B360X and B360X Pro makes them ideal for professionals who routinely work in extreme environments and scenarios where internet access is unreliable. Beyond its use in public safety, its role in the military and defense sector enables effortless operation of high-load military simulation and training platforms, using Edge AI to generate virtual enemy behavior logic and tactical simulation models.
“The true value of Artificial Intelligence is not realized in climate-controlled data rooms, but in extreme situations where critical decisions shape our security, defense, and infrastructure on a global scale,” says James Hwang, president of Getac Technology Corporation. “With the B360X and the B360X Pro, Getac is breaking the environmental barriers of computing. We are paving the way for a new era of ‘Smart Resilience,’ ensuring that those who protect and build our world have uninterrupted access to next-generation AI, no matter how extreme or disconnected their environment. We are not only shaping the future of rugged industry; we are actively defining it.”
