PROJECT SUMMARY
Datalink Systems Inc. was contracted to develop an officer-down personal emergency unit to be worn by police officers. When the button was pressed the signal was transmitted to the patrol car where a Datalink black-box unit processed the data and re-transmitted over CDPD to a DataGate located in the police department's server. DataGate would re-transmit the data to a number of PCs on the LAN.
System was designed by Datalink and became active in 2001.
PROJECT SUMMARY
Datalink Systems Inc. was contracted by the U.S. Dept of Justice to develop a variant of DataGate which would allow secure tracking of field operatives in Central America, providing fast emergency response. Personal communication devices worn by the field operatives would link to their vehicle where the data was re-transmitted over MSV-MSAT1 to a base DataGate. The DataGate would process the data and re-transmit to selected pagers.
System was designed by Datalink and became active in 2002.
PROJECT SUMMARY
Datalink Systems Inc. was contracted to develop and supply software to allow fire fighting aircraft operated by the Department of Environment and Conservation of the Western Australian Government. This entailed processing data transmitted by Inmarsat D+ satellite terminals on aircraft and writing the data to an oracle database and further to detailed map screens.
DataGate IP routing software installed in one of DEC's servers controlled the flow and distribution of data.
Datalink's partner in this project was ASTA Applied Satellite Technologies Australia.
PROJECT SUMMARY
Datalink Systems Inc. was contracted to develop a city wide monitoring and data relay system which would allow LoJack http://www.lojack.com/car/pages/car-works.aspx equipped vehicles to be located quickly when stolen. Rather than adopt the procedure of having a number of vehicles with tracking receivers and directional antennas drive around the city looking for the LoJack signal from the stolen vehicle, CARSEG (LoJack franchisee) placed a number of monitors on roof tops around the city.
Each site was equipped with a TAIT T2010 UHF transceiver and an intelligent modem. Data packets were relayed via other sites across the city to the base office where a DataGate processed the data and displayed it on a screen. Receiver signal triangulation located the stolen vehicle in a specific neighborhood followed by a tracker car and Police being dispatched to recover the vehicle.
System was designed by Datalink and became active in 2000.
Datalink's partner in this project was CARSEG, S.A. based in Guayaquil, Ecuador.
PROJECT SUMMARY
Datalink Systems Inc. was contracted to develop and supply a highly secure satellite based tracking and emergency alert system to track special trains moving nuclear waste across the USA. A satellite terminal located on the train transmitted the data over the MSV MSAT1 satellite to the ground station, where it was them re-transmitted over MSAT1 to a satellite receiver located on the monitoring company's building. This data path was considered more secure than any terrestrial alternative.
System was designed by Datalink and became active in 2002.
Our philosophy: develop products with operational simplicity and long term reliability
