Android tablets are popular, and have been out long enough that many are being retired- it would be great to repurpose (or just have on hand) an Android tablet as a display. Most Android tablets support a host mode, so the interface is there- no new hardware is necessary.
I upgraded from a Hantek 6022BE (please, no snide comments ;-)) and somebody wrote a software for Android for that - nifty, just my phone and the Hantek and I'm all set.
Professionals use the best tools available to solve or understand problems efficiently. Go with the port - need any help?
It would be great to have my analyser on my tablet.
I would think few devices could pull this off. USB OTG can be very anaemic in terms of power output, with some devices producing less than 100mA of current. For a Logic device expecting at least 500mA to be on tap, that's going to be a problem.
I guess those Android devices with host ports would fare well enough, though.
Porting the software probably isn't a small task either. They'd need a large team to work on that, and I'd rather have more software features than an android port. The interface could work pretty well with android though, especially with the swiping through signals system already in place.
Working in facilities where your not allowed to carry in a bag of tools, I use my android phone for most first response data/bus/network diagnostics. Being able to use logic on my phone would be a godsend!
I think this would be a very interesting idea. I'd use it. It might seem odd to use a tablet for this purpose but often it is desirable to be able to take testing equipment to remote places where you don't necessarily want to have a whole desktop or laptop machine. For instance, I do work with electric vehicles and it'd be handy to be able to use Logic on the road while someone is driving the EV. Sure, a laptop could work here but tablets are easier to hold in small spaces.
