Fujitsu has released a 2 in 1 device called the STYLISTIC Q736 that features the company's PalmSecure palm vein biometric technology.The new 33.8 cm (13.3-inch) tablet – which also converts instantly into a classic clamshell notebook through the connection of a dockable keyboard – enables security authentication with biometrics or SmartCard technology, also including support for contactless SmartCard via NFC (near-field communication) technology.The STYLISTIC Q736 also features encrypted drives and Intel's TPM, which provides secured storage for security keys and passwords, further protecting against unauthorized access to sensitive data.Jörg Hartmann, Head of Category Management, EMEIA Product Business at Fujitsu says: “Since human error is one of the most common security problems, we have taken a human centric approach towards systematically eliminating any weak points. The new STYLISTIC Q736 incorporates the very latest biometric and SmartCard security technologies that help reduce the chance of simple, but potentially disastrous mistakes, such as someone leaving their tablet unlocked in a public place.”The STYLISTIC Q736 tablet weighs less than 1 kg, putting it among the lightest terminals with an anti-glare, multi-touch display in this form factor. The embedded dual digitizer also works with a digital pen.
