Building on the success of previous medical terminals, the new ARM-based M1016 boosts higher computing and GPU performance than its predecessors to satisfy the strong demands for faster medical communication systems in healthcare segments. The ARM Mali-G31 GPU features ultra efficiency to bring the best possible multimedia experience, allowing it to improve patient’s hospital experience during their stays. It can also be used by medical staff as an e-health system to enhance working efficiency. Via the multi-touch interface and network capabilities, electronic patient records can be accessed at your fingertips. Plus, through the integrated RFID/NFC reader, healthcare organizations can build a modern identification system for accessing patient records.

For years ARBOR’s bedside infotainment terminals have been trusted by our customers to better engage their patients. The preceding M1014, preloaded with the TMM software, has been deployed in a modern pediatric ward in Australia. The model has also been deployed in a dialysis center as a healthcare teleconsultation platform. Compared with preceding model, the M1016 delivers higher processing power and enhanced specification. It can better address the diverse infotainment needs in today’s healthcare field.

Apart from medical applications, the M1016 can also be used in wide variety of information kiosk applications, such as a fitness entertainment terminal or an interactive kiosk terminal. For example, with its lightweight, slim-profile design, and high performance with low power draw, the preceding model of M1016 has been chosen by one of the world's major airports in Southeast Asia as a passenger information terminal.
