DALLAS, Tex./LA FOX, Ill. (August 8, 2007) - Unotron, Inc., the leading manufacturer and worldwide marketer of high quality, washable data input and security devices announces that its patented SpillSealR keyboards and ScrollSeal Washable Mouse are offered with every engineered display solution Richardson Electronics (NASDAQ: RELL) sells into surgical suites and hospital operating rooms (ORs). Unotron products feature a sealed structure that allows for washing and sterilization, addressing the problem of bacterial cross-infection in medical environments where a disinfecting protocol is required.
"Unotron's keyboards and mice are impervious to liquid ingress and can be completely submerged in disinfectant after a surgical procedure, making them the perfect compliment to the medical imaging workstation solutions Richardson provides for ORs, emergency departments and trauma centers,"notes Harley Firth, vice president of Richardson's Display Systems Group-Healthcare Division. "Our customers have been looking for a solution that fits their needs, and we found one in Unotron."
Richardson delivers display and IT solutions for the healthcare market. The company's expertise in display technologies and their complimentary peripherals and mounting solutions sold into picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) applications naturally progressed to addressing this same demand in surgical suites within hospitals. Richardson designs its display solutions to allow surgeons to access PACS images during procedures,enhancing patient care and improving workflow.
Unotron technologies have the look and feel of normal peripherals, yet they can be fully washed under running tap water or immersed in antibacterial solutions for complete disinfection.
SpillSealR protected keyboards are both waterproof and dustproof. The ScrollSeal Washable Mouse has smooth optical tracking and an ergonomic design. It features two standard buttons, with a scroll wheel conveniently located in the center. Every recess can be cleaned, including the scroll wheel which can be easily removed and simply clipped back into place once cleaned.
Both the keyboard and mouse have been tested to IP66 and NEMA 4X Standards and can be utilized in Operating Rooms and other healthcare facilities. Each is available in a wired or wireless version, and feature compatibility with Windows 98/ME/2000/XP.
The newly patented Unotron ScrollSeal Washable Optical 3-button Mouse and Unotron SteriMax Washable Optical 3-button Mouse complement Unotron's SpillSealR corded and wireless computer keyboards and receivers, as well as its SmartRest SRC5 Smartcard Readers and external SAC2 Standalone Smartcard Readers.
