UTrackIT has released a number of products aimed at the perimeter and guard monitoring markets, empowering the 24x7 tracking and monitoring of guards.
As recently featured on the Hi-Tech Security Solution Magazine website.
This entry-level tracking module logs all movements of the guard. The MobiGuard device is robust and waterproof. It offers a straightforward, industry-standard tracking solution recording current position and route.
While moving, GPS data is recorded continuously and logged based on speed of travel, as well as having each stop and start logged. Frequent (within the minute) transmission of GPS data allow the route travelled to be followed over the Internet using a PC or mobile phone. Each MobiGuard device has a unique serial number chip to identify each guard. GPS (position) data is stored against this ID so past patrol logs can be accurately reviewed.
When there is no GPS possible (for example when the guard is in a building), the GPS can be complemented by placing RF 'Canaries' at strategic locations. The MobiGuard+ has an embedded reader that reads the canary identity and includes the time the guard passed this physical beacon in the normal patrol logs.
Patrol reports can be configured to provide a 1-page summary of beacon visits and the time spent at each during each patrol. Beacons can be virtual (GPS locations) or physical (canaries).
Offers the Satellite-location (GPS) features of a fully-installed tracking solution in a completely portable format. The internal GPS Antenna is omni-directional and the internal rechargeable Lithium-Ion power-pack provides for 96 hours of operation (and up to 4 months of stand-by power), making MobiTrack LL ideal for tracking requirements not suited to a permanent installation. The internal battery pack recharges using a standard USB connection. The integrated motion sense switches to low-power mode within minutes of the unit stopping, but with instant wake-up as movement occurs. This motion-intelligence allows MobiTrack Long Life to operate in a stand-by mode for extended periods of time, making it ideal for tracking vehicles and equipment that is infrequently used.
MobiAlert is a black box that is pre-programmed with the site patrol schedule and includes a canary RF beacon. The beacon is there to confirm the guard has left the guardhouse, and the schedule sounds an alarm to prompt the guard to go on patrol (first a buzzer, and then a siren if the guard does not acknowledge). MobiAlert has been developed in response to client requests for a prompt to remind the guard to go on patrol, and to act as a dead-man’s switch that will sound the siren should the guard be unable to press the acknowledge button.
MobiAlert can be extended to receive motion signals from wireless proximity beams and this allows the guard to be notified of someone approaching when he is not watching – eg. vehicle approaching the gate. It has arm times that allow the siren to be on longer at night (in case he is on patrol), and short (or off entirely) during the day when there will be more traffic. If the use of a siren that could disturb the neighbours is undesirable, then the MobiAlert can switch on a strobe light to bring attention to an alert.
It can be further extended to include a modem that reports if the guard does not press the acknowledge button – a feature included in case he is indisposed (tied up) – and will notify the control room to take action.
For site and perimeter guarding, a visual grid representing patrol points visited by the guard simplifies the analysis of whether patrols have been performed correctly. Activities that require a person to be at a specified location on schedule can be complemented by an optional No-Show SMS to line managers and the control centre, thus freeing up resources as exceptions are highlighted timeously.
The Lithium-Ion rechargeable cell provides for 10 to 14 hours of continuous operation between charging. The unit is sealed at manufacture, a feature made possible by the new 'Qi' charging standard that offers highly efficient, wireless recharging within approximately four hours.
MobiGuard is standard with GPS for satellite positioning and GPRS for data transmission to your UTrackIT asset mapping and route review account.
The portable MobiMinder has both a canary RF beacon and a panic button. The canaries may be programmed to ‘sing’ in several instances:
The MobiMinder works hand-in-hand with MobiGuard+ using the communication of the MobiGuard to receive instructions and send reports, proximity, and button-presses. MobiMinder cannot operate without a MobiGuard.
MobiAlert can be programmed depending on customer requirements. These settings include:
Include our recovery options to meet the insurance industry requirement for your vehicle to be fitted with SAIA Approved tracking.
