Simi
Valley, CA,
August 12, 2002- Crimestopper
Security Products Inc., a leader in
the Vehicle Security Industry for over
20 years, announced today that it has
selected Satronics to develop its next
generation automated wireless GPS automotive
security system designed to give owners
total control of their vehicles via
wireless communications. Using the telephone
or the Internet interfaces, this new
technology, which is "Powered by
Televoke" and uses Aeris.net's
North American MicroBurst® network,
automatically notifies a user when his
vehicle has been tampered with or has
been stolen and provides specific event
messaging.
To
operate the system, subscribers can
use any touch-tone phone or web browser
and activate such features as unlocking
the doors and disarming the alarm, locking
and arming, remotely starting the engine
(optional), or requesting the vehicle's
location.
Howard Miller, President of Crimestopper,
notes, "The driver never has to
worry about the status of his car because
our system provides constant Central
Station Law Enforcement call center
monitored and automated, real-time reporting
of events such as a triggered car alarm,
unauthorized movement, excessive speed,
or a low battery event. We are very
excited to be working with Satronics
in development of this cutting-edge
technology for our next generation vehicle
security system."
How it Works
The hardware device that is installed
into the vehicle includes a Global Positioning
Satellite (GPS) receiver and a cellular
MicroBurst® radio modem, which can
be installed as a stand-alone system or
be integrated into an existing alarm or
factory keyless entry system. All vehicle
monitoring and convenience control features
are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a
week.
Subscribers to the system can specify
what events they want monitored and
how they want to be notified when those
events occur. Options include:
· Automated event-specific messaging
· Automated e-mail messaging
· Automated Call Center intervention
and vehicle recovery
