TrackMe R1, The Next Generation

TrackME, the leading AVLS provider in the Philippines, proudly introduces its latest product, the TrackME R1 rover. Re-engineered to take advantage of the latest technologies that greatly improves its reliability and cost...

Five years ago, AVLS (Automatic Vehicle Location System) was virtually unheard of in the Philippines. Only a handful of end-users benefitted from this great technology called GPS (Global Positioning System). TrackME was instrumental in driving this technology to address concerns beyond security. Thereby, significantly widening the range of solutions that can be deployed.

Over the years, the use of this technology has been proven to drastically improve efficiency in the management of mobile assets. However, there is one constraint to realizing the full benefits of using such technology, COST. Existing tracking devices use GSM technology to allow the device to communicate. The most common medium of which is SMS (Short Message Service). This makes the operating cost still prohibitive since getting the desired amount of data will require a fairly large amount of GSM communication cost. As such, the full benefits are still not realized.

Today, 4 years after our entry into the AVLS scene, we proudly introduce the TrackME R1. A product brought about by our utmost desire to constantly improve on the products and services that we provide to our customers. The TrackME R platform will, for the next few years, be our core device upon which peripherals can be connected to allow flexibility in the usage of a tracking unit.

What's new in TrackME R1?


TrackME R1 supports common features like digital Input/Ouput ports (for sensors and actuators), SMS and GSM Data Communications, built-in memory for approximately 5,000 points. What sets TrackME R1 apart from the others are the following :
  • TrackME R1 is TRUE GPRS capable
    • Out of the box, the end user immediately realizes a lower operating cost of about 1/4 less than existing tracking units that primarily utilize SMS and GSM Data.
    • This can be further optimized by sending more data in between gprs connections. Effectively reducing the cost to a fraction of those for existing tracking units.

  • TrackME R1 is iDen capable
    • This feature gives TrackME R1 another mode of communicating pertinent data.
    • Our tests indicate that this is a very viable alternative to GSM/GPRS provided that there is sufficient signal coverage in the area of operations

  • TrackME R1 is expandable
    • TrackME R1 was designed such that other devices can be attached without major changes in configuration.
    • Very soon, devices such as cameras, wireless network modules, bluetooth, data loggers, data input devices can be connected.

  • TrackME R1 is locally-developed
    • The TrackME R1 was designed and developed by our team of highly competent engineers.
    • This gives us total control over the features that may be required by our customers.

TrackME R1 is a testament to our commitment to continuously apply improvements to our products. Thereby allowing our customers to maximize the benefits in the use of technology.

TrackMe, leading the way.
