Endless Desert Challenges + IP67 Rating = Driver Safety Assurance

The 2021 Moroccan Off-Road Rally World Championship, held in the Zagora region, presented significant challenges for participants. The competition spanned 2,600 kilometers across five stages in the Sahara Desert, where drivers faced relentless heat and treacherous terrain. Traditional paper road books were prone to errors and delays, posing significant risks to racers.

Paper Road Books + Manual Modifications = Increased Accident Risks

In the past, the official road books used in the competition were paper documents that required manual adjustments based on individual reading habits. Missing pages or paper jams could result in critical navigation errors, potentially ruining a driver's race. For solo motorcycle competitors, the use of roller-type road books further complicated the process, leading to delays and missed opportunities.

Digital Road Books + Rugged Tablet = Enhanced Performance and Safety

To address these issues, the organizing committee encouraged teams to adopt digital road books. The rugged tablets provided by ONErugged offered a solution that combined durability with ease of use. The M80T rugged mobile PC was specifically designed to withstand the harsh desert environment, ensuring reliable performance throughout the race.

Clear Screen + Responsive Touch = Efficient Navigation

The M80T's large, bright screen made it easier for drivers to read and interpret digital road books, reducing the risk of errors. Its responsive touch interface allowed racers to quickly familiarize themselves with track conditions, even in the midst of intense competition. The tablet's durability, tested for shock resistance and temperature stability, provided consistent and accurate navigation throughout the event.

Timely Course Response + Safe Driving = Championship Success

For motorcyclists who serve as both drivers and navigators, having access to the latest route information is crucial. The M80T's ability to provide timely and accurate navigation helped avoid the common problem of drivers getting lost or disoriented during races. This ensured that drivers could maintain their focus on safe and fast driving, significantly improving their chances of success.
