Motorola and Data Burst Technologies Announce iTRAK(TM) Vehicle Location System for iDEN(R) Phones
iTRAK Links Through Internet to Provide Real-time Vehicle Location
SCHAUMBURG, Ill., and Woodland Park, Colo., Jan. 28, 2002- Fleet operators can now enhance response time and improve customer service by using an Internet-based Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) system from Motorola (NYSE:MOT). This new AVL system combines a Motorola Internet-capable iDEN® phone, an iTRAK in-vehicle module and a browser-based service called NavView(TM) that can provide customers in the courier, delivery, construction, contracting and taxi markets with a cost-effective AVL solution.
The revolutionary iTRAK, designed by Data Burst Technologies, uses an integrated Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver and interface module to continually report (through the iDEN phone) each vehicle's location to the NavView website. When subscribers log on to www.navview.com, they can view, map and maintain historical data about a fleet or even a single vehicle from their office or home computer. All the while, the individual iDEN handset in the truck or car remains voice-capable.
In addition to providing real-time vehicle positioning, other critical data, such as vehicle speed and arrival/departure time is recorded, and can be used in fleet scheduling to provide faster response time. Additional features include dynamic loading of maps, report generation, and zoom function to state, city or street level.
Easy Installation
The iTRAK is fairly easy to install. Using the magnetic-mount GPS Antenna/Receiver along with data cables (sold separately), fleet owners can quickly connect their Internet-capable iDEN handsets (i50sx, i85s, i500plus, i550plus, i700plus, r750plus and i1000plus) to the system. The iTRAK also can be permanently mounted.
The Motorola Accessories and Aftermarket Division manufactures and distributes Motorola original accessories and replacement batteries to support user applications for Motorola two-way radios, pagers, cellular telephones and iDEN handsets. The Accessories and Aftermarket Division also provides replacement parts, test equipment and technical support to businesses engaged in the repair and maintenance of Motorola products.
