Personal Tracking With GPS The Next Revolution


Personal tracking in the next few years will evolve into a substantial part of the telecommunications industry. Unlike the AVL (Automatic Vehicle Location) and Telematics industry, personal tracking is not confined to just vehicles. There are over 5 billion mobile phones connected globally, so we can begin to understand the potential market size.

The number of personal tracking units coming onto the market are mostly manufactured in China, they are the size of a small mobile phone and typically have a rechargeable battery which will power the unit for between 12 and 24 hours. The units are basically a GPS (Global Positioning System) enabled GSM (Global System Mobile) cell phone without the keypad and screen, therefore the battery will not last much longer than a smart phone.

There are also a number of websites offering mobile phone tracking, which is personal tracking but with a serious flaw if to be used for personal protection, the phone and simply be switched off. The phone tracking sites uses the GPS for the smart phone to get position and then sends this information by SMS (Short Messaging Service) or GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) to a mapping web portal. There are other phone tracking services that use cell identification and use some very complex software which is used in conjunction with the network operator to triangulate on the transmission from the phone.

Pear Track Systems Ltd manufactures long battery life GPS tracking equipment for tracking plant, shipping containers, road trailers, boats, and a variety of non powered assets, their tracking systems have up to 10 years battery life. The experience that Pear Track has gained in developing these long life battery units has been applied when the developed the PT-30 a matchbox sized rechargeable personal tracking unit with a 30 day battery life. The unit can also have a panic button and can be concealed in a piece of clothing or small bag.

The PT-30V will have a vehicle power supply for permanent installation into a vehicle or motor bike and can easily covertly fitted in seat or door wing mirror. There will also be a PT-100 which is the size of two packs of playing cards and will have a 1 year non rechargeable battery for use not only in personal applications but can be used to track parcels and packages. There are nearly 6,000 PT-700 units in service around the globe, which has a seven year battery life.

The position of the PT-30, like all the Pear Track units allows the user to find the position of the tracking device to within a few meters anywhere in the world by using a multiple mapping solutions via a web-based tracking portal. The each user has unique user name and password to access the advanced tracking system; this allows you to find both real-time and historic locations of the unit.

The reporting intervals can be remotely configured from the Pear Track web portal and an activity report can either be viewed on maps or downloaded in text form giving time, date and location of the asset along with any alerts that were active at that time.

Pear Track was formed by Paul Burke and John Macey the originators of Minorplanet Ltd that went on to become one of the principle GPS tracking companies in the World, and to this day is regarded by many as the market leader in Vehicle tracking systems with many thousands of units operating globally.

Practicalities of Applied Science PhD


The field of sciences basically comprises two main areas, namely basic and applied sciences which cover a horizon of specialties within each area. As the name suggests, applied science is the application of science in a physical setting. It differs from basic sciences which mainly focus on science for knowledge. Applied sciences are closely connected to fields of engineering for the advancement in biotechnology, computer sciences, geology, among the many available. However, these two sciences work hand in hand as it is impossible to understand the workings without first the knowledge.

Although it may not seem necessary to go through a doctorate program to be a better or more qualified applied scientist, it is a great opportunity to expand the scope and understanding of your field. In the course of studying for your applied science PhD, you are exposed to fundamental research and development on how best to practically use science to better the condition of the world and its inhabitants.

Mother Nature has suffered much in the hands of those irresponsible and ignorant, and it’s the task of applied scientists to figure out a way to put things right, so to speak. These affected areas encompass the air we breathe, water we drink, food we eat, energy we use. All in all, we have to ensure there are sufficient resources to pass on to the next generation whilst reducing pollution to a minimal.

As such, nations are constantly on the search to resolve current issues and develop new innovations. Leading organizations have set up foundations to fund projects to support these interests in the application of science. Green technology is given great emphasis and well-qualified applied scientists are in huge demand. As such, this has sparked an interest in many to further their academic qualification by garnering an applied science PhD under their belts.
