Augmentix is a leader in rugged, MIL-STD-810F, mission-critical mobile and server computing solutions for use in harsh, demanding environments. By redefining the way rugged computing products are developed and delivered, our military, first responder, homeland security and industrial customers are experiencing a new standard in rugged devices.
