It pays to outsource wireless design
Wireless design is a key technology area best left to specialists, argues Craig Swallow, Commercial Director of Triteq.
Novel design produces clip-on tracking unit
Triteq has designed the electronics in an advanced location-tracking unit developed by Geonix Tracking for the Thuraya satphone handset.
According to Louise Fairley, Marketing Manager at Triteq, the company was appointed by BlueFinger to improve and update an existing product.
"The previous AzurTrac design, whilst effective, needed to be brought up to date".
"The environment in which it operates demanded new security features to protect the data, manage the power and record attempts to tamper with it, all integrated into a robust casing".
Ian Searle, Sales and Marketing Director for BlueFinger added: "The expertise demonstrated by the design and manufacturing teams at Triteq enabled a smooth process from start through to initial production runs".
"The new features that have been incorporated have resulted in a more effective product that has become easier to manufacture".
With illegal, unregulated and unreported fishing increasing, AzurTrac now meets the requirements of vessel monitoring legislation such as the International Ship and Port Facility Security Code (ISPS) and fisheries management.
And with improved functionality designed-in, AzurTrac ensures fleet managers or the appropriate monitoring authorities receive effective, uncorrupted, accurate data.
The new adaptation is backwards compatible with previous versions that are currently in operation worldwide, monitoring fleets in countries such as Greece, Ghana and Mozambique.
Additional features include, GPS positioning, programmable reporting, intelligent power management with battery back-up, zone-in-zone monitoring, zone, route and speed identification and catch reporting software.
