The IP65-rated VIA Viega sports a durable design that protects against spills, rain, and dust. It also features shock and vibration protection that safeguards the device against drops of up to two meters, as well as a tempered glass panel to prevent shattered screens. With an extra long-life polymer battery pack and an optional highly-customizable docking station to provide extensive connectivity for external peripherals and rapid charging capabilities, the VIA Viega ensures uninterrupted operation throughout an entire working shift in even the most demanding usage scenarios.

Powered by a dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 SoC with NEON technology, the VIA Viega delivers outstanding multimedia performance, including hardware acceleration for stunning HD product demonstration and training videos. A rich set of wireless connectivity options including Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth 4.0, and NFC, as well as optional 3G for transportation or remote location scenarios, means absolute flexibility in a wide variety of indoor and outdoor deployments.

The VIA Viega features a highly-customizable Android 4.2 Operating System with enhanced security features such as hardware-assisted data encryption/decryption and built-in manageability through the VIA SMART ETK. A wide range of framework, kernel and device management customization services for the VIA Viega are also available from VIA.

“As more and more enterprises seek to increase productivity and improve customer service by equipping their staff with mobile devices, they are quickly learning that it is critically important to deploy customized solutions built to withstand the demands of their target environments rather than standard off-the-shelf products,” said Epan Wu, Head of the VIA Embedded Platform Division, VIA Technologies, Inc. “With its rugged design, enhanced security features, and customization support, the VIA Viega addresses this need and provides the longevity support that enterprise level customers require.”
