But for tourism and extreme sports, a smartphone will definitely come in handy. The thermal imager measures the temperature in the range of -20 - +400 degrees Celsius, and the range finder determines the distance within 10 meters.

The smartphones CAT S61 also have a sensor that determines the composition of the air. The Caterpillar brand did not change its own habits, and provided the phone with water resistance and resistance to physical damage.
