Product Information
Advanced manufacturing and materials technologies enable a more rugged design — without adding weight or thickness. It’s built to handle 10 ft./3.05 m drops to concrete and 2,000 consecutive tumbles. With IP65 and IP68 sealing, it’s dustproof and waterproof — submerge it in water and spray it down with a hose. Corning Gorilla Glass protects the display and imager window with maximum scratch-resistance and shatter-proofing — two of the most crucial and vulnerable features.
