Texas Tech University Parking Enforcement

The Texas Tech University Parking Services team had a growing problem of receiving fraudulent and duplicate parking passes on game days. Their outdated handheld computer systems lacked the capability to detect phony passes, and unauthorized vehicles were crowding the lots. To solve the problem, Texas Tech equipped attendants with 25 Panasonic Toughbook U1 computers with integrated barcode scanners and mobile broadband for real time communications. This state-of-the-art rugged mobile computing solution now allow attendants to easily weed out invalid passes and work with greater efficiency to meet the parking needs of 30,000 students.
