There's a new hot technology device on the market today GPS. Which stands for Global Positioning Systems. Almost all new cars come with optional GPS navigation systems which give you directions. There are also handheld devices you can carry with you. In addition there are GPS Car Monitoring devices which can track and even recover vehicles in the event they are stolen.
What Exactly is GPS or Global Positioning System
A GPS positioning device is a compact unit that fits onto the bottom of an automobile or any mobile unit, such as a car, boat, bicycle, or even a person. From a third location, the satellite technology of the GPS can send signals to a GPS receiver, so that the location-position of the unit can be relayed. Three areas are involved, altitude, latitude, and longitude. The satellite technology is a constellation of 24 satellites that send information to the GPS receiver.
Between 1974 and 1977, the United States Department of Defense launched these satellites and developed and used these systems to monitor missiles as they floated toward their targets. With the advent of former President Clinton, changes were made in the technology of these systems, such as bandwidth, and they were made available to ordinary citizens to purchase and use. With recent advances in technology there has been an increasing demand for GPS systems and market opportunities and intelligent applications.
Many vehicle features can be monitored and controlled from a Millennium Plus GPS Vehicle Tracking device that is placed securely underneath the vehicle. Satellites and patented microburst engineering allows you to communicate with the specified vehicle 24/7 through use of the computer internet. Also you can access reporting and alert functions by email, cell phone,or pager!
Millennium Plus uses an incredibly new technology, which includes GPS satellites and GSM cell technology. You have hands-on communication with the vehicle through use of the transceiver. There is a two-way flow of information and communication.
*Using any standard internet browser, after accessing Millennium Plus, signals are sent out and picked up by the nearest cell phone tower.
*Operation of Microburst technology uses existing cellular networks using channels on the back of standard cell frequencies to transmit data.
*GPS satellites can then locate the Millennium Plus transceiver on board your automobile, and then communicate with you about your auto, and exchange information on location, speed, and execute requests you have sent.
*Using cellular towers as a third party relay, signals will be sent back to you.
Millennium Plus GPS auto monitoring device can be put to broad-spectrum uses. Most of us can come up with multiple uses for Millennium Plus; at work, for leisure activity or for home.
Business uses for real time GPS vehicle tracking anti theft device. Anybody who has the foresight to see the helpfulness this could provide to those they care about and their cargos
Vehicle theft is the nation's number one property crime, with 1.2 million vehicles stolen, costing an estimated $8.2 billion, according to the most recent FBI Uniform Crime Reports (ca 2001). What's even more disconcerting is the fact that the vehicle recovery rate has dropped substantially from about 84% in early 1990 to a mere 62% in 2001*. If law enforcement is unable to recapture your assets for you, who will?
In Phoenix/Mesa, Arizona, for two years in a row, the rate of stolen vehicles reached the highest in the country. A police spokesperson there suggested this; "installing a tracking device in your vehicle to help recover it if it is stolen" is the best way to deter criminal behavior.
Insurance Discounts
Millennium Plus is an Anti-theft device, even though it's uses are very broad. An extra incentive to own a GPS is that most insurance companies, by law, will offer discounts to owners of GPS tracking systems. It is called an anti-theft discount. Contact your insurance agent to discuss anti-theft discounts.
