Automobile Association runs smoothly on tablets

Each van has a heavy-duty Panasonic Toughbook Tablet PC mounted on a steel column next to the driver. When a stranded AA member places a call for assistance, a comprehensive geographic information system that helps work out exactly where the breakdown has occurred transmits data including a map showing the location of the service van best able to respond.

A global positioning system is connected to each Tablet PC so both the driver and the base know where each van is at all times. Before he arrives at the scene, the service worker knows what sort of problem he will be dealing with, the make and model of car and where he will find it in relation to local landmarks.
