What are tracking devices?
- Devices with GPS are used for tracking, finding locations and sending the information remotely.
- Most often used communication technologies are GSM networks, ZigBee, Bluetooth, WiFi. Next to GPS location, devices can send other information, depending on what is supported on the device.
- Communication can be bidirectional.
- Some devices can work with their own battery.
- Some devices have internal memory.
- Some devices have user interface.
- Some device have movement sensors.
- Most of the devices have an alarm contact and analog voltage meter.
- Some devices have standard interface RS 232, TTL and CAN to allow connections to other equipment.
- Some devices have rubber cover that make the devices waterproof.
