NovaTracker is introducing a more intelligent generation of highly customizable wireless and GPS hardware solutions powered by proprietary technology that integrates easily with most vehicle tracking software and significantly cuts transmission costs.
Fleet managers consistently report that as much as 50 percent of the information they receive from a GPS solution isn’t precisely what they need, so the other half results in higher transmission costs.
The Maya is an extremely versatile and reliable in-vehicle GPS equipped, GSM capable data hub that allows existing fleet management software solutions to do far more, with less. Engineered specifically for the fleet-tracking industry, Maya generates an unparalleled array of customized and highly relevant data transmissions.
Leveraging the intelligent technology developed by NovaTracker as the proprietary platform for its wireless and GPS solutions — Maya becomes an in-vehicle network hub. Specifically, this intelligent unit is capable of providing a large range of data types such as location reporting, vehicle status and a wide variety of event codes including geofence violation. It is the only device on the market today that will transmit information the customer has specified with as many as 16 different variables.

New Finds in Real-Time Location
By Eric Griffith
The Wi-Fi Real-Time Location Services (RTLS) market is on fire with new announcements this week, many coming out of the location-heavy needs of the healthcare industry as shown at the HIMSS (Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society) Annual Conference & Exhibition in New Orleans through March 1.
First up is AeroScout, with new Wi-Fi tracking tags. The T3 tags have a new, flatter shape they call "credit card" rugged, and consume less power than previous versions, with up to four years of battery life. The tags use both RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indication) and TDOA (Time Difference of Arrival) to be located by the software running on the wireless LAN. If anyone tries to tamper with the T3, it will send an alert across the network. There’s two buttons on it for calling and alerting people. The company also announced a major hospital deployment (with partners Cisco and Emergin) at the University Hospital of Ghent in Belgium. Aeroscout, which is based mainly in Israel, received $21 million in its C round of venture capital, for a total of $55.5 since it was founded as BlueSoft in 1999.
Ekahau, which announced its own new tags last week (complete with tiny text screen) announced at the show a partnership with Nortel Networks. The Ekahau Positioning System software and tags will be coupled with the Nortell WLAN 2300 series for customers. Ekahau also offers a software "tag" to put on devices like laptops to make them equally trackable. (Nortel has also upgraded the voice capabilities and intrusion protection of its equipment.)
