Motion Computing®, a leading provider of integrated
mobile computing solutions, and Corning Incorporated (NYSE:GLW)
announced today that Corning® Gorilla™ glass has been added
to Motion’s most rugged offerings. The C5 Mobile Clinical Assistant
(MCA) and rugged F5 Tablet PC now include the thin-sheet glass that
was designed to protect against real-world events that cause
display damage. The tablets are being shown at the IP Convergence
Conference and Tradeshow in the Paris Expo, Porte de Versailles,
Hall-4, today through Oct. 8.
The Motion C5 and F5 were designed for highly mobile
professionals across vertical industries such as healthcare,
construction, field service and manufacturing. Both IP-54 and
MIL-STD-810F rated, the tablets are fully rugged yet lightweight,
making them the ideal solution for workers who compute while
walking or standing. Designed specifically for mobile devices,
Corning’s Gorilla glass improves screen durability without adding
weight to the highly mobile tablet PCs. To view a video

“Corning’s Gorilla glass was designed specifically for products
like the Motion tablets, which are focused on durability, mobility
and industry-leading displays that offer a bright viewing
experience in a highly portable and durable design,” said James E.
Hollis, commercial director, Corning Specialty Materials.
“Additionally, since Gorilla glass is strong and also damage and
scratch resistant, it further protects pen-input devices that are
often exposed to elements such as water and dust.”
Corning Gorilla glass is an environmentally friendly
alkali-aluminosilicate thin-sheet glass designed specifically to
function as a cover glass for portable display devices. Its
superior composition allows a deeper layer of chemical
strengthening than is possible with other chemically strengthened
glasses, giving it an increased ability to resist and withstand
damage. Additionally, it remains strong over time, extending the
life of the tablets while making accidental scratches and abrasions
less visible and less likely to affect the user’s visual
experience.
A variety of features come together in Corning’s Gorilla glass
to create a strong, damage-resistant glass that is ideal for tablet
PCs, including:
- Thinner form factor: Gorilla
glass retains its performance advantage over standard chemically
strengthened offerings even when used in thin form factors.
- Pristine surface quality:
Corning’s proprietary fusion process offers a high-quality surface
and eliminates lapping and polishing processes that can cause
surface damage.
- Compatibility with tablet
devices: Used as a protective glass that is ideal for devices that
have a touch user interface including pen input, Gorilla glass adds
protection without interfering with the superior pen response
offered with Motion’s tablets.
- Easy-to-clean, water resistant
coating: Special coating makes Gorilla glass easier to clean than
other cover glasses, making it easy to remove dust, dirt, or other
elements.
