Training of track inspectors was also simplified with the same application running on both
notebooks and OQO ultra mobile PCs. CSXT created a single, platform-agnostic training
manual and DVD with snapshots of navigation menus and electronic forms to train track
inspectors and road masters.
“In addition to the costly overhead of porting and maintaining software for PDAs,
participants of our pilot complained of having to click through 4 to 5 menus on PDAs
to perform the same task in a single menu on the OQO computer or notebook. The
increased screen real estate of the OQO device and the ability to run a full operating
system directly resulted in improved usability and greater productivity in the field.”
“With the power of a full Windows CSXT rapidly deployed OQO ultra mobile PCs to track inspectors in rail yards across 23
XP PC in a lightweight, handheld eastern states representing their regions of operation. With track inspectors on foot most
of the day, the OQO computers had to meet the following requirements for practical use:
form factor, the OQO computer
enables us to proactively manage • lightweight and mobile
our track inspection work flow • rugged, durable, and reliable
while eliminating the burden and
• indoor and outdoor screen readable
waste of paper forms and manuals.
• easy navigation and input
Deployment was a major success
with tangible productivity and Weighing approximately 1 lb., the OQO computer was a welcome replacement for the
efficiency gains.” 4-inch-thick Maintenance of Way Instructions (MWI) binder that track inspectors had to
lug around. All forms and manuals are now stored locally on the shock mounted hard drive
Larry Biess of the OQO computer. Encased in a rugged magnesium chassis with a field rugged bump
CSX Director of Advanced Engineering case, the OQO computer is well suited to withstand the wear and tear of all-day, outdoor
use. The bright screen also enables outdoor readability even under intense sunlight. Track
inspectors can navigate and enter input using the integrated keyboard, track stick, or
digital pen on the OQO computer. High reliability rates of OQO handheld computers have
minimized downtime.
“The OQO computer makes my job a lot easier. I don’t have to carry and flip through
the MWI binder because the computer will automatically suggest remediation measures
based on my input. With the OQO computer, I can now access historical gauge reports to
look at recurrence rates and trends.”
