US police forces could soon get a major tech upgrade thanks to DT Research's new rugged laptops, which pack in Nvidia graphics and AI processing
But its entry-level GPU is two generations old, and its AI pitch centers on its internals.
DT Research has unveiled the LT365PA, a rugged 15.6-inch laptop featuring Nvidia RTX A2000 or RTX 5000 Ada graphics. Designed for crime scene investigators, crash reconstruction teams, and military command posts, the laptop aims to process video, drone footage, 3D scans, and sensor feeds at the scene rather than relying on network connections or distant data centers.
The laptop runs on Intel Core Ultra processors, offers up to 32GB of LPDDR5 memory, up to 2TB of storage, and Windows 11 IoT Enterprise. It comes with a 1,200-nit touchscreen, night-vision displays, and various connectivity options like GPS, 4G LTE, and NIST-compliant BIOS. While the LT365PA builds upon the 2023 LT355 model, it introduces the RTX 5000 Ada graphics card, improved weight, and upgraded display options.
However, it has a reduced memory capacity and lacks detailed battery life specifications. The laptop's value lies in its ability to enable real-time data processing at the scene, but its adoption by US police forces remains uncertain due to the lack of specific software partnerships and performance metrics.
