Overview
GPS Commander’s Scout PT solution is the industry leading solution for personal tracking of employees, using GPS capable Blackberry phones. In the past, most tracking solutions designed for cellular phones suffered from inherent design flaws:
- Significant battery degradation, often using close to 50% of the phone’s available battery life throughout the day.
- Poor tracking reliability resulting from the user’s ability to disable the tracking application.
- Poor GPS accuracy
Performance
Scout PT proprietary technology eliminates all of these issues through a different design approach that involves embedding the program onto the handset with direct, persistent connectivity to the phone’s internal GPS chipset. Rather than run as a typical third party application, Scout PT operates as a system service in the background and is able to bypass user controls, while improving performance. The results:
- Less than 15% battery life reduction in a 24 hour period
- Fast GPS first fix time of 9 seconds average
- User cannot shut down application
- Accuracy to 15 meters
Accessibility
