The ACD group specializes in the development of mobile solutions for industrial and logistics environments as well as the retail sector. The mobile terminal M2Smart®SE can be tailored to exactly meet individual business requirements. ACD provides a range of modules that can be attached to the body and turn the mobile computer into a powerful tool, for example for industrial applications, such as the control of robots and AGVs as well as the control of automation processes. The M2Smart®SE also suits applications in the retail and warehousing sectors, for example for mobile PoS or inventory tasks, receiving and shipment of goods etc. There is a large range of slide-in units available to mix and match: M2UHF is an RFID module for LF/HF/UHF, allowing a read distance of up to 1.5 m (long-range module will be available end Q3/2020). Different layouts of the M2Key keypad module enable optimal manual data entry. The M2Temperature unit provides an infrared sensor for the measuring of surface temperatures and a penetration probe to measure core temperatures. The M2Safety enables emergency stops and is particularly made for industrial applications. M2Connect provides additional USB and round plug interfaces. Also available are a printer module for labels and tags and a payment module for mobile checkout solutions. With the patented slide-in mechanism, the units can be attached and detached without tools. Additionally, there is a pistol grip available for scan-intensive use.

The ACD M2Smart®SE handheld computer is equipped with a powerful NXP processor with asymmetric multi-core CPU architecture, consisting of a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 platform and a low-power Cortex-M4 CPU. It is available with a minimum memory capacity of 2 GB RAM and 16 GB Flash or larger on request. The Android operating system was modified by ACD to suit the higher requirements of industrial and business applications and does not contain Google Mobile Services (GMS).
