Fastrax unveils new track&trace platform

Faster development of asset tracking applications and location based services possible

Fastrax, a provider of programmable GPS receivers and software solutions for original equipment manufacturers, today announced the launch of the Fastrax Track&Trace platform, integrating all software and hardware components needed for fast and cost-efficient development of tracking applications.

The new Fastrax Track&Trace Platform is designed for telematics device manufacturers and asset tracking service provider and can be used either as off-the-shelf product, be customized for specific application requirements or integrated into existing solutions. It is suited for both professional fleet management applications and a wide range of GPS-enabled consumer devices and services. Fastrax Track&Trace Platform provides an ideal basis for development of applications to track and trace for example cars, trucks, trailers, motorbikes, boats and rental equipment. With tightening competition, faster time to market and cost effective hardware designs are increasingly important.

Fastrax Track&Trace Hardware includes the uTrace03 Development Board and is based on the uTrace03 telematics module, which consists of a GPS receiver with an integrated antenna, a GSM/GPRS modem with an integrated quad band antenna, and connectors for easy implementation. The Track&Trace platform includes the pre-certified (CE, FCC, PTCRB) uTrace03 Evaluation Kit, which is a complete battery powered tracking device and offers the fastest route to end product through re-branding.

Fastrax Track&Trace Embedded Software toolkit is a powerful software development environment for building embedded tracking applications and for modifying existing software features. A significant part of the environment comes as source code, which allows tailoring and optimization of the final application.
