{mprestriction ids="1,2"}Part of Globalstar’s Simplex solutions portfolio, the SmartOne C uses motion sensors, comparative GPS positions and custom configured sensors to gather and transmit data via the company’s Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite constellation.
It includes an accelerometer that alerts owners to any unexpected movement, such as attempts of theft, while also having the capability to report asset status and monitor faults, which Globalstar says can enhance operating efficiency.
“Harnessing the power of the Internet of Things has the potential to help businesses and governments realise numerous operational efficiency benefits,” says Jay Monroe, chairman and CEO of Globalstar.
“The reliability and reach of our global LEO satellite network allows us to offer a superior M2M management service and with the launch of SmartOne C, we can continue to provide compact, feature-rich, cost-effective solutions.”
The device, the smallest of its kind according to Globalstar, can operate independently of wired power for up to one and a half years using battery backup, and has a number of different message settings for various uses.{/mprestriction}
